AI Contract Overview
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) plans to continue supporting the Child Neurologist Career Development Program (CNCDP) through a forthcoming Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The program aims to increase the number of child neurologists trained to conduct high-quality research on neurological disorders affecting children, leveraging their specialized clinical expertise. The funding opportunity will follow the K12 activity code, establishing a national program managed by the principal investigator (PD/PI) and a national advisory committee at the host institution. While the new NOFO will closely resemble the previous iteration, some modifications are expected, and both new and renewal applications will be encouraged. However, only one national K12 program will be supported, and applications are not being solicited yet; this notice serves to provide advance notice to potential applicants to foster meaningful collaboration and project development. This initiative is managed by the Department of Health and Human Services via the National Institutes of Health, with Letitia Weigand, Ph.D., serving as the contact person for inquiries. The program excludes clinical trials and is designed to be a structured, ongoing effort to enhance research training opportunities for child neurologists nationally. The announcement was made public on May 9, 2025, to allow sufficient planning and preparation time for interested institutions and researchers.

Full Description
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) intends to continue to support the NINDS Child Neurologist Career Development Program (CNCDP) by publishing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for continuation of that program. The goal of the program is to expand the cadre of child neurologists trained to conduct outstanding research into neurological disorders of children, taking advantage of their clinical training and expertise. This NOFO will utilize the K12 activity code. This K12 will be housed at the PD/PI's institution, but will support a national program, overseen by the PD/PI and a national advisory committee. For planning purposes, the general structure of the program will remain the same as described in the previous NOFO (RFA-NS-19-040; note that whereas the new NOFO will be closely based on the previous NOFO, it will not be identical). Both new and renewal applications are encouraged. A maximum of one national K12 program will be supported. 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.
