    The Department of Health and Human Services is offering funding opportunities through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for research that investigates mechanisms by which bariatric surgery affects cancer risk. This initiative focuses on studies beyond immediate outcomes like weight loss, delving into how bariatric procedures potentially influence various cancer risks. Applications are invited from diverse entities, including educational institutions and nonprofits, with a project budget capped at $500,000 per year for a maximum of five years. The program specifically seeks to understand how factors such as sex, racial background, and procedure type may alter cancer risk across different patient populations. Researchers are encouraged to employ both animal and human models in their investigations, with proposals due starting January 5, 2025. The funding aims to further elucidate the biological mechanisms at play in the cancer risk landscape following bariatric surgery, addressing pressing public health challenges, particularly as obesity-related deaths are rapidly rising. The NIH outlines clear application and eligibility requirements, emphasizing the importance of innovation and scientific rigor in the research proposals submitted.
