Forecast to Publish a Funding Opportunity Announcement for the Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

<p>The National Cancer Institute intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for the Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). The purpose of CISNET is to use simulation modeling to extend evidence provided by trial, epidemiologic, and surveillance data to guide public health research and priorities across the cancer continuum.</p><p><br></p><p>Applications are not being solicited at this time. This notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO will utilize the U01 activity code. Investigators with expertise and experience with comparative simulation modeling methods for cancer control are encouraged to begin to consider applying for this new NOFO. In addition, collaborative investigations combining expertise in decision modeling, statistics, health economics, epidemiology, computer science, medicine and public health will be encouraged and these investigators should also begin considering applying for this application.</p>
