Deadline: 21-Oct-22
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking applications for its Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Measurement Core.
The Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program plans to extend and expand the ECHO Cohort in its next phase (2023-2029) to further investigate the roles of a broad range of early exposures from society to biology, including the preconception period, on ECHO’s five key child health outcomes among diverse populations.
The objective of this FOA is to solicit applications for an ECHO Measurement Core. Working collaboratively with other members of the ECHO Cohort Consortium, the ECHO Measurement Core will:
- develop and refine measures for the ECHO Cohort Protocol, including methods to implement the measures;
- assist all Cohort Study Sites, Cores, and Centers in implementing and evaluating the ECHO Cohort Protocol, which comprises standardized measures at specified study visits; and
- lead strategic decision-making to incorporate new and revised measures to advance ECHO Cohort science while moderating participant and staff burden.
