    The Department of Health and Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has issued a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for epidemiologic research focused on emerging risk factors for liver cancer in the United States. The program, operating under the R21 Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant mechanism, aims to explore innovative hypotheses regarding both biological and social risk factors contributing to liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma and other histological subtypes. The application process opens on January 16, 2025, with a budget limit of $275,000 for two years. Applicants are encouraged to leverage existing resources and conduct collaborative research that includes data on non-viral factors such as obesity and metabolic syndrome. Research areas of interest include the interactions of multiple risk factors, the impact of behavioral and social determinants, and novel hypotheses about liver carcinogenesis. The NOFO specifically excludes applications focused solely on viral hepatitis as the etiologic factor. The initiative aims to inform prevention strategies and address increasing liver cancer rates in various U.S. populations.
