This grant aims to pilot test novel interventions for mental disorders in adults and children through an experimental therapeutics approach. Researchers must design trials to provide valuable scientific information, supporting decisions on further development of the intervention. Funding covers a range of innovative approaches including behavioral, pharmacological, and device-based interventions. The grant targets validating interventions’ impact on specific targets and their clinical effects, expediting the translation of basic science discoveries into practical treatments for mental disorders. Applicants need to apply by October 14, 2016, to be considered for this opportunity.

Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support the efficient pilot testing of novel interventions for mental disorders in adults and children through an experimental therapeutics approach.Under this FOA, trials must be designed so that results, whether positive or negative, will provide information of high scientific utility and will support go/no-go decisions about further development or testing of the intervention. Studies of novel interventions include, but are not limited to behavioral, pharmacological, biologics-based, cognitive, device-based, interpersonal, physiological, or combined approaches.Support will be provided for testing and validating the interventions ability to affect a specified target, and for relating the change in target to functional or clinical effects. Ultimately, this funding mechanism is intended to speed the translation of emerging basic science findings of mechanisms and processes underlying mental disorders into novel interventions that can be efficiently tested for their promise in restoring function and reducing symptoms for those living with mental disorders. |
