This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages the submission of applications that requires multi-project, synergistic collaboration between outstanding scientists that blends multiple research approaches by multi-disciplinary research teams.
This Center of Excellence for Research on Complementary
and Integrative Health (CERCIH) program is designed to support three or more highly meritorious projects that can offer significant scientific advantages and "synergy" that could not be achieved by supporting the same projects as individual research grants.
Each CERCIH must be focused on questions of high relevance to the mission of NCCIH.
