Description: The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to enhance the research and resource activities of the Palliative Care Research Cooperative (PCRC) by funding high quality, cutting edge palliative care and end-of-life (PCEOL) research. The proposed studies must be designed to use the PCRC infrastructure and resources to accomplish their aims. Investigators from PCRC sites, and also those outside the network or collaborations across the two, will propose PCEOL studies that use the PCRC for methodological resources, access to any or all of the PCRC patient populations at multiple institutional sites, and PCEOL expertise of PCRC investigators unique to the network. The FOA will also assess the PCRCs impact, enhanced efficiency, statistical power, ability to complete studies within timelines, and lower costs. As a result of this FOA, it is expected that collaborative, interdisciplinary research will be funded that demonstrates the value of the PCRC and will ultimately lead to long-term sustainability.
