The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a grant opportunity titled "NIH Brain Development Cohorts (NBDC) and Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study Biospecimen Access." This initiative aims to provide researchers with access to biospecimens from significant studies, including the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study and the HEALthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) Study, to enhance understanding of the genetic and environmental factors influencing health and disease throughout life. The grant is open to a wide range of eligible applicants, including tribal governments, federal agencies, and foreign institutions, with no cost-sharing requirement. Interested parties should note that the estimated award date is January 4, 2027, and they can reach out to Heather L. Kimmel at heather.kimmel@nih.gov or by phone at 301-443-6504 for further information.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse seeks to advance its mission by providing the scientific community with the opportunity to request access to biospecimens from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study, the HEALthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) Study, and the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study to conduct research consistent with study objectives that will maximize the scientific utility of these limited samples. Research proposals should expand the knowledge gained from these studies and advance our understanding the multiple genetic and environmental factors, including exposure to substances, that affect health and disease over the course of a lifetime. Grant authorities that allow NIH to forecast this opportunity are as follows Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act as amended (42 USC 241 and 284) and under Federal Regulations 42 CFR Part 52 and 45 CFR Part 75 and 2 CFR Part 200].
