The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit Program Project (P01) applications from scientific hubs to support learning health care research in clinics offering evidence-based Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) to persons in the early stages of psychotic illness. For this NOFO, “early psychosis” is defined as the period spanning the onset of an affective or non-affective psychotic disorder and up to 5 years following the first episode of psychosis. Each scientific hub will link multiple early psychosis service programs through (1) the EPINET Core Assessment Battery (CAB) of early psychosis clinical features, CSC services, and treatment outcomes; (2) informatics tools to collect de-identified, person-level data across sites; and (3) a unified approach for analyzing pooled data and disseminating promising findings rapidly across the network. In this re-issued NOFO, the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) encourages applications from new and existing scientific hubs, including those that partner with state mental health authorities on the implementation, sustainment, and continuous improvement of CSC programs in state-supported health systems. The P01 activity code supports research that has multiple distinct but complementary and/or synergistic projects built around a clearly defined unifying central theme or well-defined overall objective.
