Number: PAR-06-252 Title:
Rapid Assessment Post-Impact of Disaster (R03) Brief Description: The Rapid Assessment Post-Impact of Disaster (RAPID) grants are designed to provide a limited sum of money for early assessment to investigators who intend to follow up with a full research application, using the preliminary data from this initial effort as a basis for their larger application. The sponsor is concerned with research topics including but not limited to: psychological, physiological, biological, and behavioral reactions to trauma; risk factors for mental health sequelae (including post-traumatic stress disorder) resulting from exposure to such emergencies; service delivery and treatment of victims; and effectiveness of programs designed to prevent mental health problems. The sponsor provides support for a rapid funding mechanism for research on the post-impact of disasters, in order to permit access to a disaster area in the immediate aftermath of the event. This program will use the NIH Small Research Grant (R03) award mechanism. Proposed Funding: Applicants may request a project period of up to two years and budget for direct costs of up to $50,000 per year. Agency Deadlines: Applications should be submitted within approximately six weeks of the identified disaster event. This program will expire on March 18, 2009. Contact
