Summary: Supports Centers for Diabetes Translation Research to accelerate innovation in diabetes research, emphasizing health equity and reduction of diabetes-related disparities.
Key Information: Limited submission: only one National Enrichment Program award anticipated; strong research base ($3M/year direct costs) required; multi-component application structure.
This opportunity funds Centers for Diabetes Translation Research (CDTRs) to advance research across the translational science spectrum (from bedside to clinical practice, community settings, dissemination, and implementation). The program aims to accelerate the translation of diabetes research into real-world practice, with a strong emphasis on health equity and reducing diabetes-related health disparities. CDTRs are expected to provide specialized expertise, tools, education, and support through core services, fostering multidisciplinary collaborations among academic institutions, healthcare systems, community organizations, and other partners.
The program encourages the development of novel methods and research cores, particularly those that can inform or be adapted for disparity-reduction strategies. Centers must demonstrate a robust, well-funded research base and are expected to support early-stage investigators, promote innovative pilot projects, and offer enrichment activities to build capacity in diabetes translation research.
