Full Description
Description
The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the Office of Dietary Supplements intend to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Fiscal Year 2027. This NOFO aims to support interdisciplinary research networks to advance biomedical research on resilience, aligning with the priorities of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Make America Healthy Again Commission, and the Department of Health and Human Services to optimize the health and well-being of all Americans.
Resilience is defined by the NIH Resilience Research Working Group as the capacity to resist, recover, adapt, or grow from challenges or stressors. Americans across the lifespan face an alarming number of acute and chronic stressors, such as viral infections, burnout, bullying, financial hardship, environmental toxins, and natural disasters that can contribute to development or worsening of chronic diseases, ultimately impacting population health and well-being. Resilience outcomes (i.e., resistance, recovery, adaptation, or growth) can be measured over time and across interconnected systems encompassing the whole person, including individual (e.g., molecular, physiological, psychological), environmental, and community domains.
