Funder: National Institutes of Health
Due Dates: March 5, 2029
Funding Amounts: Up to $250,000 per award; estimated total program funding $2,500,000; approx. 10 awards expected.
Summary: Supports innovative research in clinical informatics to develop and advance methodologies and tools that improve health care delivery and outcomes.
Key Information: No foreign subawards/subcontracts allowed; see eligibility for international collaboration details.
This opportunity from the National Library of Medicine (NLM) at NIH seeks applications for research in clinical informatics. The program aims to catalyze the development of novel informatics methodologies that enable clinicians, patients, and the public to better understand, manage, and improve health and health care delivery. Supported research should focus on designing, implementing, and evaluating tools and methods that facilitate data-driven discovery, evidence-based decision-making, and support personalized or precision healthcare. Emphasis is placed on scalable, domain-independent, and reproducible approaches for managing digital health objects such as electronic health records, clinical notes, imaging, and patient-generated data. Projects are expected to transform heterogeneous health data into actionable knowledge, accelerate scientific insights, improve clinical workflows, and lead to better health outcomes.
