Program on the Origins of Gastroesophageal Cancers (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-CA-21-026 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is publishing this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to request applications for the Program on the Origins of Gastroesophageal Cancers (R01). This new program will build on recent molecular classifications of gastroesophageal cancers, significant understanding of their cancer genomics, and advances in stem cell research to examine and define how these related cancers initially evolve at the cellular level. The program will address the complex mechanisms and effectors that direct the proliferation and expansion of tumor-initiating cells and their progeny to initiate these cancers. The focus of the FOA is on gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinomas. The program is envisioned to provide unprecedented opportunities to outline the earliest cellular changes in transformation that precede any histological manifestations or neoplasia. This new program will be composed of up to six large R01 research grants (to be supported by this FOA) and one Coordinating Center grant (to be supported by the companion FOA, RFA-CA-21-027).

Patient Safety Learning Laboratories: Advancing Patient Safety through Design, Systems Engineering, and Health Services Research (R18 Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity PA-21-266 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite applications for the creation and utilization of Patient Safety Learning Laboratories (PSLL). These learning laboratories are places and networks where transdisciplinary teams identify closely related threats to diagnostic or treatment efforts associated with a high burden of harm and cost. Following a systems engineering methodology, the learning laboratories stretch professional boundaries, envision innovative designs, and take advantage of brainstorming and rapid prototyping techniques that other leading industries employ. Promising prototypes undergo further develop-test-revise iterations, and subsequent integration as a working system. After further improvements are made to the integrated working system, its efficacy is evaluated in a realistic simulated or clinical setting.
