The National Institute of Mental Health is offering a grant for projects utilizing genetic information from electronic medical records to enhance our understanding of severe mental disorders. The funding aims to investigate the intricate connections between polygenic risk, specific genetic variants, and environmental factors in human populations, leading to improved diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses. Applications should propose innovative molecular epidemiologic strategies within existing large cohorts or health systems to delve into the complex etiology of psychiatric disorders. Closing date for submissions is September 7, 2021.

| Description: | The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to support projects that implement creative, efficient molecular epidemiologic approaches that incorporate individual genetic information, including polygenic as well as specific genetic risk variants, in existing large, population-based cohorts, registries and/or health systems to conduct analyses that advance our understanding of the complex etiology of severe mental disorders. The ultimate objective of this funding opportunity is the elucidation of the complex interplays of genetic (e.g., polygenic) risk, in addition to specific risk loci and networks, and environmental factors, in human populations, which will lead to better understanding, diagnosis, and ultimately treatment of mental disorders. |
