The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a funding opportunity titled "Interdisciplinary Research Networks to Advance Biomedical Research on Resilience and Health Optimization." This initiative aims to support the establishment of interdisciplinary research networks that focus on resilience, defined as the ability to resist, recover, adapt, or grow from various stressors affecting health and well-being. The program is particularly significant as it addresses the increasing challenges faced by Americans, such as chronic diseases exacerbated by stressors like viral infections and environmental factors. The estimated total funding for this program is $1.5 million, with three awards expected to be granted. Interested applicants can reach out to Erin Burke Quinlan, Ph.D., at erin.quinlan@nih.gov or by phone at 301-480-9483 for further information. The application process is set to open with a synopsis posted on January 5, 2026, and will close on May 25, 2026, with awards anticipated by April 1, 2027.
