Dear NBER Affiliates,

The National Science Foundation has an upcoming intergency program
solicitation, Smart and Connected Health, that may of interest. Please
feel free to contact me or one of the NBER grants administrators if you
are interested in submitting a proposal in response. I will paste a
synopsis here, but the full solicitation can be accessed by visiting
https://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=504739 or by searching
for Smart and Connected Health at nsf.gov.

Best,
Alterra Milone

SYNOPSIS

The goal of the interagency Smart and Connected Health (SCH): Connecting
Data, People and Systems program is to accelerate the development and
integration of innovative computer and information science and
engineering approaches to support the transformation of health and
medicine. Approaches that partner technology-based solutions with
biomedical and biobehavioral research are supported by multiple agencies
of the federal government including the National Science Foundation
(NSF) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The purpose of this
program is to develop next-generation multidisciplinary science that
encourages existing and new research communities to focus on
breakthrough ideas in a variety of areas of value to health, such as
networking, pervasive computing, advanced analytics, sensor integration,
privacy and security, modeling of socio-behavioral and cognitive
processes and system and process modeling. Effective solutions must
satisfy a multitude of constraints arising from clinical/medical needs,
barriers to change, heterogeneity of data, semantic mismatch and
limitations of current cyberphysical systems and an aging population.
Such solutions demand multidisciplinary teams ready to address issues
ranging from fundamental science and engineering to medical and public
health practice.

The SCH program:

takes a coordinated approach that balances theory with evidenced-based
analysis and systematic advances with revolutionary breakthroughs;

seeks cross-disciplinary collaborative research that will lead to new
fundamental insights; and

encourages empirical validation of new concepts through research
prototypes, ranging from specific components to entire systems.

The purpose of this interagency program solicitation is to support the
development of technologies, analytics and models supporting next
generation health and medical research through high-risk, high-reward
advances in computer and information science, engineering and
technology, behavior and cognition. Collaborations between academic,
industry, and other organizations are strongly encouraged to establish
better linkages between fundamental science, medicine and healthcare
practice and technology development, deployment and use. This
solicitation is aligned with national reports calling for new
partnerships to facilitate major changes in health and medicine, as well
as healthcare delivery and is aimed at the fundamental research to
enable these changes. Realizing the promise of disruptive transformation
in health, medicine and/or healthcare will require well-coordinated,
multi-disciplinary approaches that draw from the computer and
information sciences, engineering, social, behavioral, cognitive and
economic sciences, biomedical and health research. Only Integrative
proposals (INT) spanning up to 4 years with multi-disciplinary teams
will be considered in response to this solicitation.
