The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering this Small Research Grant (R03) to invite investigator-initiated applications for studies on vulvodynia. This grant specifically addresses basic, clinical, translational, epidemiological, and behavioral research into vulvodynia and related symptom-based conditions. The overarching goal is to facilitate new research on diagnostic, prevention, and therapeutic approaches for vulvodynia, a chronic pelvic pain condition affecting women. It is anticipated that this initiative will yield findings useful for developing future prevention or treatment strategies, thereby increasing our understanding of the pathophysiology, risk factors, natural history, and genetics of vulvodynia. The R03 mechanism supports small research projects achievable with limited resources and in a short timeframe.

| Description: | Purpose. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite investigator-initiated applications that address basic, clinical, translational, epidemiological and/or behavioral research on vulvodynia and related symptom-based conditions. The goal of the initiative is to facilitate new research on diagnostic, prevention, and therapeutic approaches to vulvodynia, a chronic pelvic pain condition in women. An expected outcome will be to provide findings useful for development of future prevention or treatment strategies. It is anticipated that these studies will increase our understanding of the pathophysiology, biologic and behavioral risk factors, natural history, and genetics of vulvodynia. The R03 grant mechanism is intended to support small research projects that can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Small Research Grant (R03) award mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scientific scope, PAR-10-192, which encourages applications under the R21 Exploratory/Developmental Grant mechanism and PAR-10-190, which encourages applications under the R01 Research Grant 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. |
