Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-23-001 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Parkinsons disease (PD) is the second most common and fastest growing neurodegenerative disorder, with approximately 60,000 Americans diagnosed annually. PD symptoms are not limited to motor dysfunction and more than 50% of patients who develop PD often have a history of bowel complaints affecting nearly all parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) system. These SI symptoms often precede the onset of motor symptoms, indicating that GI dysfunction may be an early manifestation of the disease and the gut may be an unexplored diagnostic and/or therapeutic target. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to establish a Gut Brain Parkinson's Diesase Consortium (GBPDC) The Data Coordinating Center (DCC) of the GBPDC will coordinate collaboration among the Gastroenterology Neurology Research Centers (GNRCs, as described in the companion FOA, RFA-DK-22-036), enrollment of subjects into the study, submission of data and other biological samples to central repositories, processing of biospeciments, submission of clinical, cellular and molecular data to central databases, and data analysis. The DCC will manage the operations of the GBPDC Steering Committee and other operational committees and provide the infrastructure for the efficient design and conduct of multicenter clinical studies and establishe a repostiory of patient samples that may be used for ancillary studies of etiology and pathogenesis. The DCC will also coordinate the development of pilot projects for rapid follow-up of emerging findings by members of the GBPDC.

Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-22-036 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This FOA invites new applications to participate in the Gut-Brain Communication in Parkinsons Disease (PD) Consortium (GBPDC). The goals of this initiative are 1) to establish a network of individual research projects and a Coordinating Center focused on clinical research; 2) recruitment of sufficient patients and use of standardized protocols to collect data and biospecimens relevant to both neurology and gastroenterology research on PD; 3) share data, biomaterials, models, reagents, resources and methods among projects in the GBPD; and 4) make these publicly available through the Coordinating Center. The objective of this consortium is to accelerate research on the role gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and changes in gut-brain communication in the initiation and pathogenesis of Parkinsons disease in order to facilitate development and validation of innovative early-phase GI-based diagnostic tools and biomarkers for PD. The research centers of the GBPDC will serve as sites for enrollment of PD patients with and without GI symptoms, patients with GI symptoms considered to be at risk for PD, and healthy age-matched controls for laboratory-based studies on biological samples obtained from these patients. The NIDDK strongly encourages Research on Sex/Gender Differences, Sexual and Gender Minority-Related Research and Race/Ethnic Diversity (see NOT-DK-22-003).

Funding Opportunity PAR-23-235 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages grant applications for Biomedical Technology Resource Centers (BTRCs). BTRCs are national resource centers for conducting research and development on new technologies that are driven by the needs of basic, translational, and/or clinical researchers. BTRCs also make their technologies available to other investigators, train members of the research community in the use of the technologies, and disseminate the technologies broadly.

Funding Opportunity RFA-OD-23-021 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to invite applications for a Research Project Grant (U01) that will utilize health communication research to better understand the impact that messaging about the continuum of risk for tobacco products may have on various segments of the population. The NIH and the FDA have formed an interagency partnership to foster research relevant to tobacco regulatory science within the framework of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA). The award under this NOFO will be administered by NIH using designated funds from the FDA Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) for tobacco regulatory science mandated by the FSPTCA. Funds for this program have been made available through the FSPTCA (P.L. 111-31).
