Social Determinants of Public Health RFA: Deadline Extension
The Ohio State Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) has extended the application deadline for the 2022 CCTS Pilot Translational & Clinical Studies Program (PTC) pilot research funding award. The theme of this request for applications (RFA) is social determinants of health.
According to Healthy People 2030, social determinants of health (SDOH) are defined as the conditions in the environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a wide range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risk. Social determinants of health can be grouped into 5 general categories: Economic Stability, Education Access and Quality, Health Care Access and Quality, Neighborhood and Built Environment, and Social and Community Context (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services).
Avoidable and unfair differences exist in social determinants of health across social groups in our communities. Most glaringly, the lower an individual's socioeconomic status, the worse health outcomes they experience. The purpose of this RFA is to stimulate and support transformative, innovative, interdisciplinary pilots and early-stage studies that seek to understand and address inequality in social determinants of health.
The ultimate goal of this RFA is to strengthen efforts by The Ohio State University researchers on addressing social, economic, and environmental determinants of health with the aim of reducing health inequalities.
