This grant, offered by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) via the R21 mechanism, aims to support biobehavioral research in palliative and end-of-life care for children, infants, and neonates. Its core purpose is to advance designs and methods that reduce suffering and improve the quality of life for children facing life-limiting conditions and their parents, including those impacted by accidents. Applications focusing on helping children cope with the loss or potential loss of a parent or significant other are also strongly encouraged. The NINR seeks cross-disciplinary teams to develop and test interventions that can be swiftly translated into pediatric palliative care practice. A total of $750,000 is available for FY 2010, with an anticipation of funding 2-3 R21 awards.
