The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering the HEAL Initiative: Translating Research to Practice to End the Overdose Crisis (R61/R33) grant. This initiative aims to accelerate the translation of research findings into practical applications to combat the ongoing overdose crisis. Specifically, this grant is designed to support translational dissemination and implementation research. The primary focus areas include addressing overdose deaths and exploring the complex intersection of pain management and Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). For Fiscal Year 2025, specific areas of interest under this grant include workforce development, understanding the impact of exposure to violence, and leveraging inpatient hospitalizations for intervention. This RFA functions as a parent mechanism, working in conjunction with targeted Notices of Special Interest (NOSIs), and has a companion R33 RFA for related research efforts.
