The purpose of this notice is to inform the research community that the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), with other NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices (ICOs) listed above, intends to publish a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for research on Advancing Nutrition-related Research Across the Lifespan.

This initiative will solicit applications to support the development and evaluation of rigorous research that examines social determinants of health (SDOH) to improve nutrition-related health outcomes and reduce related health disparities across the lifespan (prenatal, early childhood, adolescence, adults, and aging populations). This initiative aims to harness nursing science to narrow critical gaps by advancing research to accelerate progress in reducing disparities and improving nutritional health for all.
