- Novel and emerging therapeutics, including genome editing therapies, regenerative therapies, and bioengineered foods;
- Environmental impacts on health, including direct and indirect effects;
- Research and solutions for issues affecting aging populations and the shrinking healthcare workforce.
Applicants may propose a research topic other than those noted above, provided a strong rationale is made for research on that topic as a critical/emerging topic for the next century. Research in any scientific domain including basic, translational, clinical and implementation research will be considered.
