July 31, 2023: NIH Announces Funding Opportunity for Pain Management Collaboratory Pragmatic Trials

The NIH this month published notice of a funding opportunity to support the next round of pragmatic clinical trials within the NIH-DoD-VA Pain Management Collaboratory (PMC).

Read the full notice of funding opportunity (RFA-AT-24-004).

The PMC was established in 2017 with an initial cohort of 11 pragmatic trials. The new funding opportunity leverages the experience, expertise, and leadership of the PMC Coordinating Center with a new round of pragmatic trials evaluating nonpharmacologic solutions to address pain and comorbid conditions in veterans, United States Armed Forces service members, and their families.

The NIH Institutes participating in this funding opportunity include the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) and the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR). Applications may be cofunded by the Office of Disease Prevention (ODP) and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR).
