The purpose of this Notice is to indicate NINR's participation in NOT-HL-20-737 "Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Palliative Care in Heart, Lung, Blood, and Sleep Diseases."

NINR will accept R01 applications on palliative care research in heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) diseases. NINR supports research across adult and pediatric populations with a focus on the clinical and biobehavioral aspects of acute or chronic advanced heart, vascular, lung and blood diseases, conditions and sleep. NINR has a principal focus on research in symptom management and incorporation of palliative, supportive, and end-of-life care interventions, strategies and outcomes for HLBS patients and family-caregivers across the lifespan, care settings and diverse populations. The Institute has a long-standing interest in end-of-life and palliative care clinical studies of advanced HLBS conditions and disease and supports research that will significantly increase an understanding of the palliative management and interventions for these populations.
