Mechanisms Underlying the Contribution of Sleep Disturbances to Pain (R01, R21 Clinical Trial Optional)

Funding Agency:
National Institutes of Health

 The purpose of this FOA is to encourage mechanistic research to investigate the impact of sleep disturbances on pain. The mechanisms and processes underlying the contribution of sleep and sleep disturbances to pain perception and the development and maintenance of chronic pain may be very broad. This FOA encourages interdisciplinary research collaborations by experts from multiple fields—neuroscientists, psychologists, endocrinologists, immunologists, geneticists, pharmacologists, chemists, physicists, behavioral scientists, clinicians, caregivers, and others in relevant fields of inquiry. Applications proposing to study the impact of pain on sleep will be considered low priority and are unlikely to be funded under this FOA.

Although this funding opportunity uses the R01 grant mechanism, it runs in parallel with a program announcement of identical scientific scope, PA-19-201, which uses the R21 grant mechanism.
