The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), through its Basic Behavioral and Social Science Opportunity Network (OppNet), offers this R25 Research Education Project grant. It aims to provide creative and innovative short-term educational research experiences for new and early-stage scientists focusing on basic behavioral and social science research (b-BSSR). The primary goal is to cultivate a cohort of researchers proficient in b-BSSR. These scientists will contribute to understanding fundamental mechanisms and patterns of behavioral and social functioning, thereby advancing knowledge relevant to individual and population health and well-being. This initiative supports capacity-building, with OppNet dedicating $1.5 million in FY2011 to foster expertise in this critical research area.

| Description: | Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) as part of the NIH Basic Behavioral and Social Science Opportunity Network (OppNet) solicits short-term R25 Research Education Project applications that will focus on providing creative and innovative education research experiences for new scientists in basic behavioral and social science research (b-BSSR). The goal of this initiative is to support the growth of a cohort of scientists with research expertise in b-BSSR to further the understanding of fundamental mechanisms and patterns of behavioral and social functioning relevant to the health and well-being of individuals and populations. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Research Education (R25) grant mechanism. Research education programs may not be transferred from one institution to another, unless strongly justified (see Section VI.2). Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. OppNet has dedicated $1.5 million to capacity-building grants in FY2011. The nature and scope of proposed projects will vary across applications; OppNet expects the awards to vary accordingly.
