Other Announcements

The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and the American Institutes for Research (AIR) are conducting a survey to examine researcher beliefs, values, and attitudes toward conducting comparative effectiveness research (CER) and patient-centered CER. The survey is for individuals who conduct clinical, health services, health economics, outcomes, community-based participatory research, and/or CER. Please make sure your voice is heard and provide your feedback by taking the survey at: http://fluidsurveys.com/s/PCORI/ American Diabetes Association Research Programs - Notice of Change in Grant Cycle for 2015 Funding Over the past few years, the Association has seen operational expenses for employee costs, mission activities and fundraising activities increase. Unfortunately, our revenue growth has not been able to keep pace. We are continuing to work diligently to improve revenue results for 2014, while closely monitoring expenses and maintaining our focus on strengthening efficiencies and maximizing the impact of every donor dollar. Under these circumstances, the Association has postponed the upcoming Core Research Program call for applications that was planned for an October submission deadline. We will know more when the organizational budget for 2015 is approved at the end of 2014, and additional information regarding the timing of future Core Research Program grant cycles will be posted on our website as it becomes available. The American Diabetes Association® Pathway to Stop Diabetes® and Targeted Research initiatives will proceed as scheduled.
