Summary
- Grant applications are sought from investigators to initiate or competitively supplement studies on the prevalence or incidence and risk factors of communication disorders of hearing, balance, smell, taste, voice, speech, and language. The purpose of the PA is to encourage the submission of applications for epidemiological research studies characterized by their population-based study design. This initiative addresses specific research opportunities identified under Part II. Research Objectives. Such projects will contribute to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorder’s clinical research programs by providing a clearer understanding of factors (familial, behavioral, and environmental) influencing communication disorders that will ultimately provide information relevant to diagnosis, treatment, and prevention.
- 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 number, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
