The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is offering this grant to support research that defines factors affecting energy balance and mechanisms influencing cancer risk, prognosis, and quality of life in humans. This grant is for studies ranging from new analyses of existing datasets to additional collection of data and biological specimens in ongoing investigations. The primary purpose is to gain additional information that better explains the complex relationships among energy balance, cancer risk, and prognosis. Awarded through the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism, this initiative seeks to advance scientific understanding in this crucial area of human health.

| Description: | Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), invites grant applications for studies that focus on research to define factors affecting energy balance and to define mechanisms influencing cancer risk, prognosis, and quality of life. These studies may range from new analyses of existing datasets to additional collection of data and biological specimens in ongoing investigations. It is anticipated that the knowledge gained will provide additional information to better understand the relationships among energy balance, cancer risk, and prognosis. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-09-148, that encourages applications under the Research Project Grant (R01) mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism, numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. |
