Summary

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is forecasting a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for cancer epidemiology cohort research. The opportunity targets the building of next-generation research cohorts focused on cancer epidemiology. This is a U01 cooperative research grant mechanism, and clinical trials are explicitly not allowed. The FOA has not yet been published; this is a pre-publication forecast notice as of June 2025.

Clinical trials are explicitly excluded from this funding mechanism. Specific programmatic requirements, eligibility details, and award parameters will be defined in the forthcoming FOA.
