    Description

    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a funding opportunity titled "Limited Competition: Chronic Kidney Diseases of UnceRtain Etiology (CKDu) in Agricultural Communities (CURE) Research Consortium- Field Epidemiology Sites." This cooperative agreement aims to support the continuation of the CURE Consortium, which focuses on understanding the causes and potential interventions for Chronic Kidney Disease of Uncertain Etiology (CKDu) affecting agricultural communities, particularly in low and middle-income countries. The research is crucial as CKDu poses significant health risks, leading to kidney failure among young working-age populations, and the findings will have implications for kidney health in the U.S. The estimated total program funding is $6 million, with five awards expected, and applications are due by July 1, 2026. For further inquiries, interested parties can contact Susan Mendley at susan.mendley@nih.gov or by phone at 301.827.1861.
