Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA AA 21 009
This funding opportunity, RFA AA 21 009, is a limited competition cooperative agreement from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to continue supporting the Data Analysis Resource for the National Consortium on Alcohol and Neurodevelopment in Adolescence (NCANDA). It is categorized as a discretionary funding opportunity and uses the U24 activity mechanism (Clinical Trials Optional), which generally supports shared research resources and coordinated infrastructure rather than funding a single stand-alone research project. The overall purpose is to maintain and extend the centralized data resource that underpins NCANDA's nationwide work examining how alcohol use affects brain structure and brain function from adolescence into early adulthood.
A key feature of this announcement is that it is not open competition. Only the current NCANDA Data Analysis Resource awardee is eligible to apply, meaning the FOA is specifically designed to provide continuity of an existing, specialized infrastructure rather than to select a new group. While the listing notes additional eligible applicant types such as eligible federal agencies and U.S. territories or possessions, the eligibility is effectively restricted by the requirement that the applicant must be the current awardee for this particular NCANDA resource. The FOA also makes clear that foreign participation is not allowed in practical terms: non-U.S. entities cannot apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components (as defined by NIH policy) are not permitted.
The work supported through this continuation centers on managing and analyzing the large, complex datasets generated by the consortium's research project sites. The Data Analysis Resource is responsible for data standardization, storage, and analysis across the consortium, which typically involves harmonizing data formats and variable definitions, ensuring consistent processing pipelines, maintaining secure and well-documented databases, and supporting consortium-wide analytic approaches. Because NCANDA focuses on neurodevelopment during a sensitive period of life, the data likely include multi-modal measures collected longitudinally, and the Data Analysis Resource functions as the backbone that enables reliable cross-site comparisons and robust statistical analysis over time. In practical terms, this resource is meant to ensure that data coming from different sites can be integrated, curated, and analyzed in a consistent way so the consortium can answer its core scientific questions about alcohol exposure and neurodevelopmental outcomes.
The announcement was created on June 4, 2021, with an original closing date of August 18, 2021. The listed award ceiling is $600,000. The opportunity is associated with CFDA numbers 93.273 and 93.279, reflecting NIH program areas connected to alcohol research and related health activities. Overall, the FOA is best understood as a continuity mechanism to keep NCANDA's centralized data infrastructure running smoothly, preserve methodological consistency across the consortium, and sustain the capacity to manage and analyze the shared longitudinal data needed to study alcohol's impact on the developing brain.Apply for RFA AA 21 009
