The Pennsylvania Department of Health is inviting the public to submit written commentary to recommend health research priorities for the CURE Program for state fiscal year 2022-2023. Act 2001-77, the Tobacco Settlement Act, authorized the Pennsylvania Department of Health to establish a health research program, known as the Commonwealth Universal Research Enhancement (CURE) Program. CURE awards two types of health research grants: (1) health research formula grants, and (2) non-formula grants, which are awarded competitively in response to a Request for Application (RFA) that is issued regularly.

If you or any of your associates are interested in submitting a recommendation for a non-formula health research priority, please go to https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/Research/CURE/Pages/Priorities.aspx for more information.

The submission is due no later than June 15, 2021.
