Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Microbiome and Metagenomics Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Agency:
National Institutes of Health

The purpose of this FOA is to invite applications for Microbiome and Metagenomics Centers (MMC) to join the Nutrition for Precision Health consortium (https://commonfund.nih.gov/nutritionforprecisionhealth). The overall goal of the Microbiome and Metagenomics Center (MMC) is to perform microbiome, metagenomics and metatranscriptomics analysis of stool specimens collected in the Nutrition for Precision Health study.

Deadlines:

  • Letter of Intent: 30 days prior to the application due date
  • Application: April 6, 2021

Areas of Interest

Companion FOAs of the Nutrition for Precision Health Consortium
 

  • RFA-RM-21-001: Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Artificial Intelligence for Multimodal Data Modeling and Bioinformatics Center (U54 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). An Artificial Intelligence, Multimodal Data Modeling, and Bioinformatics Center will develop comprehensive dietary intervention algorithms that can predict biological responses.
  • RFA-RM-21-002: Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Metabolomics and Clinical Assay Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). A Metabolomics and Clinical Assays Center will perform metabolomics analyses and other clinical assays on biospecimens.
  • RFA-RM-21-004: Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Dietary Assessment Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). A Microbiome and Metagenomics Center will perform microbiome, metagenomics and metatranscriptomics analyses on stool samples for all participants
  • RFA-RM-21-005: Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Clinical Centers (UG1 Clinical Trial Required). Clinical Centers will engage, consent, and enroll participants from All of Us and conduct 3 diet modules (usual dietary assessment, a controlled feeding dietary intervention and a domiciled dietary intervention)
  • RFA-RM-21-006: Nutrition for Precision Health, powered by the All of Us Research Program: Research Coordinating Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). The Overall study coordination and data management (this FOA) will be provided by a Research Coordinating Center (RCC).

The set of six companion FOAs and existing All of Us Research Program components will establish the Nutrition for Precision Health consortium.

Amount Description

NIH Common Fund intends to commit approximately $550,000 in FY2022, and $3,500,000 per year for FY2023 through FY2026.
