Summary
The R21 grant program is designed to advance our understanding of occupational diseases and injuries by focusing on the following three objectives: • Identify the risks and conditions linked to workplace health issues. • Develop strategies to reduce risks and limit exposure to hazardous environments. • Translate significant scientific discoveries into prevention measures and products that can effectively reduce work-related illnesses and injuries. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) actively supports exploratory and developmental research projects (R21) that pursue: • Innovative scientific concepts. • New model systems. • Tools or technologies with the potential to make a meaningful impact on occupational safety and health. Through this NOFO, applicants will: • Provide a clear and concise description of the specific occupational health burden the proposal addresses. • Demonstrate how the proposed research activities will lead to outputs that directly contribute to alleviating this burden. • Outline the expected outcomes and impacts of their research during the project and in the long term.
