Targeted Research Grant program - For the 2019 award cycle, the committee solicits proposals that address the Healthy People 2020 topics/objectives broadly defined. As a result, the focus of the proposal can target many populations, methods, and behaviors within pediatric psychology.  However, to maximize the likelihood that funded applications have the potential to inform research aligned with national-level priorities, special consideration will be given to proposals that also address one of the priority areas as defined by OBSSR (https://obssr.od.nih.gov/about-us/strategic-plan/):

1. Improve the Synergy of Basic and Applied Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (e.g., research on gene-environment interactions, neuroscience and neuroimaging research).

2. Enhance and Promote the Research Infrastructure, Methods, and Measures Needed to Support a More Cumulative and Integrated Approach to Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (e.g., technology – eHealth interventions and information/communication technologies, studies of novel measurement/assessment strategies).

3. Facilitate the Adoption of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Findings in Health Research and in Practice (e.g., research on the economic impact of pediatric psychology interventions/services; diversity, healthcare disparities, and/or areas related to social justice).
