FDA seeks projects to create and promote data standards for tobacco research, aiming to improve data sharing and public health outcomes.

This is a forecasted opportunity; details may change when the official notice is posted.

--- ## Description The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) is forecasting a funding opportunity to support the development and implementation of open, consensus-based data standards and terminologies for tobacco research. The goal is to enhance the quality and consistency of tobacco-related research, streamline scientific review and evaluation, and ultimately improve public health outcomes related to tobacco use. Projects funded under this opportunity should focus on: - Developing or implementing data standards and terminologies for tobacco product studies. - Addressing challenges in data standardization, sharing, integration, and analysis. - Promoting and educating federal regulators, the tobacco industry, and global organizations on the use of standardized data. The initiative encourages solutions that facilitate data sharing and integration across the tobacco research ecosystem, supporting regulatory science and public health. --- ## Due Dates - **Estimated Application Due Date:** December 1, 2023 - **Estimated Project Start Date:** May 1, 2024 *Note: This is a forecasted opportunity; actual dates may change when the official notice is released.* --- ## Funding Amount - **Estimated Total Program Funding:** $400,000 - **Expected Number of Awards:** 2 - **Funding Instrument:** Cooperative Agreement - **Cost Sharing/Matching:** Not required Award ceiling and floor are not specified in the forecast. --- ## Eligibility Eligible applicants include: - State, county, city, or township governments - Special district governments - Independent school districts - Public and state-controlled institutions of higher education - Private institutions of higher education - Native American tribal governments (federally recognized) - Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized) - Public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities - Nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education) - For-profit organizations (other than small businesses) - Small businesses --- ## Application Process - This is a **forecasted opportunity**; the official application package and detailed instructions will be available on [Grants.gov](https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/347925) once the opportunity is posted. - Applicants should monitor Grants.gov for updates and the official Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). - Prepare to address the development, implementation, and promotion of data standards for tobacco research in your proposal. --- ## Additional Information - The primary objective is to support open, consensus-based data standards for tobacco product studies. - Secondary objectives include promoting and educating stakeholders on standardized data use to facilitate sharing, integration, and analysis. - Projects may address specific domains or concepts where standardization is needed, or broader challenges in data standards development and implementation. --- ## External Links - [FDA Funder Page](https://www.fda.gov/) - [Grants.gov Opportunity Listing (FOR-FD-23-027)](https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/347925) --- ## Contact Information | Name | Title | Email | Phone | |-----------------|---------------------------|-----------------------------------------|---------------| | Rene A Vasquez | Grants Management Specialist | [rene.vasquez@fda.hhs.gov](mailto:rene.vasquez@fda.hhs.gov) | 301-796-3546 | | FDA General | | [patientaffairs@fda.hhs.gov](mailto:patientaffairs@fda.hhs.gov) | (888)-463-6332 |
