Overview

This grant is known as the Time-Sensitive Obesity Policy and Program Evaluation and does not permit clinical trials. It sets up a quick review/award process to back research that aims to assess a fresh policy or program which could impact obesity related behaviors such as diet, physical activity, or sedentary behavior. The goal of these studies is to help prevent or lessen obesity.

The grant is designed for research that necessitates a speedy review and funding due to the nature of the opportunities for empirical study. Applicants must convincingly show that the assessment of a policy or program related to obesity presents a rare and scientifically significant research opportunity. This opportunity should be unique and only available if the research starts without delay.

Keeping this urgency in mind, applications for this grant will not be accepted for resubmission. The goal is to award selected applications within 4 months of the deadline. However, this can be subject to change due to administrative requirements or unforeseen circumstances which may prolong issuance dates.
