Unveiling Health and Healthcare Disparities in Non-Communicable and Chronic Diseases in Latin America: Setting the Stage for Better Health Outcomes Across the Hemisphere (R01 - Clinical Trials Not Allowed)

Summary

This is a federal research grant opportunity (R01 mechanism) soliciting investigator-initiated research to identify, characterize, and analyze health and healthcare disparities related to non-communicable and chronic diseases (NCDs) in Latin America. The goal is to generate evidence that sets the stage for improving health outcomes across the Western Hemisphere. Clinical trials are explicitly excluded from this funding opportunity. Research is expected to advance understanding of disparities across populations, health systems, and disease burden in Latin American contexts.
