Description:
The American Diabetes Association, with support from Eli Lilly and Company, is inviting applications for original and innovative translational and clinical research proposals focused on improving the evidence base and understanding of the goals, barriers, and effects of treatments and interventions (beneficial and adverse) in older adults with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

The aim of the initiative is to further identify the safest and most effective means of diabetes treatment for this population.

Translational and clinical research projects will receive a maximum of $550,000 over three years (no more than $200,000 per year in any one year, including indirect costs).

To be eligible, applicants must hold a Ph.D., M.D., Pharm.D., D.P.M., or equivalent health- or science-related degree. In addition, applicants must hold full-time faculty positions or the equivalent at university-affiliated institutions or other nonprofit research and clinical institutions within the United States or one of its territories.

Description:
Public Health Law Research: Making the Case for Laws That Improve Health (PHLR)
is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation® (RWJF). The program
seeks to build the evidence for and strengthen the use of regulatory, legal and policy
solutions to improve public health. PHLR is equally interested in identifying and
ameliorating laws and legal practices that unintentionally harm health. PHLR’s purpose
is to answer important questions, such as: How does law influence health and health
behavior? Which laws have the greatest impact? Can current laws be made more
effective through better enforcement, or do they require amendment?

Up to 18-month awards of up to $150,000 each for short-term studies.

Up to $1 million will be available under this call for proposals (CFP).

June 18, 2013 (2:30 to 3:30 p.m. ET)—Optional applicant Web conference call. Registration is required. Please visit the program’s website for complete details and to register.
