Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics (CERTs) Scientific Forum (U19)


AHRQ Announces Two Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics


AHRQ issued two Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) for new opportunities under its Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics (CERTs). The Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics Scientific Forum seeks applications for the establishment of a scientific forum with the primary goal of ensuring research synergy and collaboration among the CERTs Research Centers with each other and with stakeholders and partners in the larger therapeutics research and education community. AHRQ anticipates awarding one award of up to $900,000 total costs per year for 5 years. Select to access the announcement: RFA-HS-11-003: Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics (CERTs) Scientific Forum (U19).



The Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics Research Centers seeks Research Program Cooperative Agreement applications for CERTs Research Centers (RCs) that propose a body of work addressing a minimum of three of the five programmatic interest areas: comparative effectiveness, patient safety, tool development, enhancement, and/or validation, health care system interventions, and translation of research findings into practice or policy. The proposed work of a CERTs RC is required to fall within a Center-proposed theme that unifies 3 to 5 major projects proposed by the RC to be conducted over the 5-year period of the grant. Applicants must also propose a core infrastructure that will support not only their proposed work, but also allow the future development and conduct of additional projects and activities with other funding sources and partners. AHRQ intends to commit $5.1 million in FY2011 to fund up to 6 awards ranging from $800,000 to $1,000,000 in annual total costs. Of these, dedicated funding is anticipated to support one Center focusing on health information technology and one center focusing on patient safety. Project periods will be 5 years.

Letters of intent for these FOAs are due on April 20 and applications are due on May 18.
