<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear colleagues<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">It is my pleasure to announce the re-issue of two funding opportunity announcements (FOAs), both entitled “Perception and Cognition Research to Inform Cancer Image Intepretation”. One FOA is for standard R01
grants (<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-18-640.html">https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-18-640.html</a>), and one is for R21 grants, designed to support high risk, high reward studies (<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-18-641.html">https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-18-641.html</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Please note that these are re-issues of previous FOAs (PAR-17-124 and -125). Some of you may have seen notices that those prior FOAs were expiring. All NIH FOAs were recently re-written to comply with the
new Clinical Trials policies, so older versions had to be expired. The new FOAs are “clinical-trial optional”, so we will accept research proposals whether or not they fit into the new NIH definition of “clinical trial”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Please check out the text of the announcements, and email me (todd.horowitz@nih.gov) if you have any questions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">thanks<o:p></o:p></span></p>
