This grant offered by the Department of Health supports cooperative research to study modifiable risk factors for spina bifida, especially in populations with adequate folate intake. Research areas include identifying new risk factors, exploring factors that can influence established risk factors like physical activity and obesity, and validating findings from previous epidemiological studies. The application deadline is on Feb 24, 2015.

| Description: | This FOA solicits applications in the form of cooperative agreements to investigate potentially modifiable risk factors for spina bifida in the presence of adequate folate (i.e. where there is established mandatory folic acid fortification or among populations for which there is individual-level data on periconceptional folic acid use), including identification of novel risk factors, identification of factors that may alter the impact of established risk factors (e.g. physical activity and obesity), and replication of previously observed associations from population-based epidemiological studies (e.g. National Birth Defects Prevention Study). |
