Timeline
    Description

    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) plans to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the HEAL KIDS (Knowledge, Innovation and Discovery Studies): Chronic Pain Program. This program aims to improve understanding of mechanisms of chronic pain in children and adolescents and accelerate the development of age-appropriate, patient/family-centered prevention and therapeutic approaches. The research will focus on advancing the understanding of biological, psychological, and social factors contributing to pediatric chronic pain. NIH is particularly interested in pain research in infants, children, and adolescents with intellectual and physical disabilities, as well as those who experience health disparities. The NOFO is expected to be published in May 2024, with an application due date in Fall 2024. The program has an estimated total funding of $5,000,000 and expects to make three awards. The funding will be provided through a Grant and does not require cost sharing or matching. The estimated award date is June 1, 2025, and the project is expected to start on September 1, 2025.
