Lifestyle and Behavioral Health Interventions Research Award
Supports using a combination of scientific disciplines including behavioral health,
psychology, psychometrics, biostatistics and epidemiology, surveillance and public health that will enhance patient experience and improve outcomes. Projects may include clinical research or clinical trials for interventions that do not require regulation by the FDA.
Funding: $3.0 million for 4 years.
