    The Department of Health and Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is announcing a funding opportunity aimed at promoting epidemiologic research on emerging risk factors associated with liver cancer in the United States. The objective is to investigate novel hypotheses regarding biological, environmental, and social risk factors and their interaction with established risks, such as viral hepatitis, in the development of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma and subtypes). This funding announcement, under the R01 Research Project Grant mechanism, encourages the submission of innovative applications that leverage existing data and biospecimens. Awards will prioritize research into non-viral factors like obesity, diabetes, and environmental pollutants, as well as their roles in liver cancer risk across diverse U.S. populations. The application process is open to a wide range of eligible institutions, including higher education and nonprofit organizations, and requires compliance with specific submission guidelines. This initiative calls for a strong focus on identifying population-based risk factors to inform liver cancer prevention strategies, with an anticipated project duration of up to five years and no limit on application budgets.
