The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is providing supplemental funding to currently funded Prevention Research Centers (PRCs) to conduct Special Interest Projects (SIPs). The purpose of the SIPs is to inform public health practice through high-quality applied health promotion and disease prevention public health research in real-world settings. The ten SIPs included in this funding opportunity are focused on various topics, including cancer survivorship care plans, prostate cancer patterns of care, and weather-related emergency preparedness and response plans for cancer prevention and control. • The SIPs will be conducted by the currently funded 20 PRCs. • The projects will focus on high-quality applied health promotion and disease prevention public health research. • The research will be conducted in real-world settings to identify, design, test, assess, evaluate, disseminate, and translate interventions or resources to prevent and reduce risk for the leading causes of illness, disability, and death in the United States. • The estimated funding for this opportunity is $11,700,000, with an award ceiling of $600,000. • The estimated project start date is September 30, 2027.
