This is a federal grant opportunity focused on organizing and coordinating research activities across dental primary care practice settings. The opportunity is currently in a forecasted status, meaning full details and formal solicitation documentation have not yet been released.

What they want

Applicants are expected to establish and operate a Coordinating Center for a Dental Primary Care Practice-Based Research Network. Typical coordinating center functions in NIH-funded PBRNs include: network administration and governance support, data collection and management infrastructure, protocol development and standardization, training and quality assurance for participating practices, biostatistics and data analysis support, and dissemination of research findings. Full scope details are pending release of the formal RFA.

Risks & flags

  • Opportunity is in 'forecasted' status — full RFA text, eligibility criteria, and evaluation details are not yet available, limiting competitor preparation time once formally released.
  • RFA number (RFA-DE-27-004) suggests this may be a recompete or continuation of a prior NIDCR-funded PBRN coordinating center, which could favor an incumbent with established network relationships.
