NIH has just issued two program announcements for Recovery Act
Limited Competition proposals on "Behavioral Economics for Nudging
the Implementation of Comparative Effectiveness Research." The RFAs
invite applications proposing either Clinical Trials (due April 7,
2010)
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-OD-10-001.html OR
Pilot Studies (due March 19, 2010)
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-OD-10-002.html on
using the principles of behavioral economics to enhance the uptake of
the results of comparative effectiveness research (CER) among health
care providers in their practice.

Jon King at NIA is the Scientific/Research Contact: (301) 402-4156,

If you would like to learn more about preparing a proposal for NIH
(including guidelines for the new, shorter research plans) and how we
can help, let me know.

Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in this
competition, or in learning more about NIH propsals and grants
generally. I look forward to working with you.
