The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is soliciting applications for a cooperative agreement to establish the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) for the Type 1 Diabetes in Acute Pancreatitis Consortium (T1DAPC). The primary objective of this initiative is to conduct a prospective longitudinal observational study on the incidence and clinical evolution of type 1 diabetes (T1D) following episodes of acute pancreatitis, with a focus on identifying immune and genetic risk factors. This research is critical for enhancing the understanding of diabetes development post-acute pancreatitis, addressing significant healthcare challenges, and guiding future research in diabetes and pancreatic disease. The total funding for the project is anticipated to be $5 million, with a maximum budget of $800,000 available annually for the DCC. Applications are due by November 19, 2024, and interested parties can contact NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov for further inquiries.
