Cancer-related Behavioral Research through Integrating Existing Data

This webinar provides an overview of the R01 and R21 funding opportunity announcement, Cancer-related Behavioral Research through Integrating Existing Data. The announcements have been reissued as PAR-16-256 (R01) and PAR-16-255 (R21).

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) seeks research that integrates two or more independent data sets to answer novel cancer control and prevention questions. Applicants areeve encouraged to incorporate Integrative Data Analysis (IDA) methods that examine cancer-related behavioral risk factors. Examples of these risk factors include tobacco use, sedentary behavior, poor weight management, lack of medical adherence to screening, and poor vaccine uptake.

Moderator Dr. Jerry Suls provides an overview and background information. Speaker Dr. Richard Moser presents details of the FOA, and technical expert Dr. Michelle Mollica provides information about available data sources.
