More detail: The University of Iowa Injury Prevention Research Center (UI IPRC) funded by the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announces the availability of funds to support pilot projects. The mission of the UI IPRC is to support multidisciplinary academic and community efforts to prevent and control traumatic injuries and violence, especially among rural populations. Pilot Project Program Objectives- The primary objective of the pilot project grant program is to encourage the development of new injury and violence prevention research projects and attract new investigators to the field. The UI IPRC is particularly interested in interdisciplinary pilot projects with a focus on populations disproportionately affected by injury and violence while considering the underlying social and structural conditions that contribute to these inequities. Populations of focus include but are not limited to rural and tribal communities; neighborhoods with high rates of crime, violence and social disadvantage; racial, ethnic, sexual, or gender minority groups; veterans, and people with disabilities. Projects that align with the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) priority areas are strongly suggested. More information about these priority areas can be found at https://www.cdc.gov/injury/priority/index.html. Priority is given to pilot proposals that hold greatest potential for leading to a larger research proposal.
