    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) aimed at advancing research into schizophrenia and related disorders in mid- to late-life individuals (age 35 and older). The objective is to uncover mechanisms influencing the onset and progression of these disorders, with a focus on biological, behavioral, psychosocial, and environmental factors. This funding utilizes the R01 Research Project Grant mechanism, with a companion R21 grant for exploratory projects lacking preliminary data. Applications must follow strict submission guidelines and are due by several deadlines from October 2023 through June 2027. Eligible applicants include various higher education institutions, nonprofits, and state or local governments. The study design should emphasize diversity among research teams and adopt dimensional measures of psychopathology instead of traditional diagnostic categories. Projects should aim to identify therapeutic targets, explore the relationship between schizophrenia and dementia, and utilize cutting-edge neuroimaging techniques. The funding emphasizes the importance of data sharing and participant consent, alongside rigorous compliance with NIH policies. Successful projects will contribute significantly to understanding and improving health outcomes for those affected by schizophrenia during mid- to late-life.
