The purpose of the Funding Opportunity announcement is to encourage grant applications from the scientific community that develop and test tools to address symptoms in caregivers.
The key to this announcement is the focus on the caregiver, regardless of patient symptoms or conditions.
Research
is needed to enhance symptom recognition and assessment in caregivers, and to promote technological strategies to alleviate distress in caregiver symptoms.
These studies are needed to advance the science related to caregiver experience of symptoms, caregiving contexts that promote these symptoms, and viable tools to address the symptoms experienced by caregivers.
