This grant, offered by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), is for developing and testing novel psychosocial therapeutic and preventive interventions for mental disorders. It specifically encourages pilot research consistent with NIMH’s experimental therapeutics approach, aiming to accelerate the translation of basic behavioral and neuropsychological science into clinical applications. The R61/R33 mechanism provides up to two years of support for evaluating target engagement and establishing intervention parameters. Following this, projects can receive up to three years to replicate target engagement from prior studies and thoroughly test its association with changes in clinical outcomes. This initiative is a crucial part of NIMH’s clinical trials pipeline, fostering new and effective mental health solutions.

| Description: | Development of Psychosocial Therapeutic and Preventive Interventions for Mental Disorders (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Required). As part of NIMH’s clinical trials pipeline, this NOFO encourages pilot research developing and testing novel psychosocial interventions and/or targets. Consistent with NIMH’s emphasis on the experimental therapeutics approach to intervention development, it intends to speed the translation of emergent research in basic, behavioral, cognitive, affect, and neuropsychological science into preventative or therapeutic interventions. This RFA will provide up to two years of support for evaluation of target engagement and establishment of intervention parameters, and up to three years of support to replicate target engagement from prior studies and to test the association between target engagement and change in clinical outcome(s). |
