RFA 23-1 is seeking to fund studies to assess health effects of long-term exposure to Traffic-Related Air Pollution (TRAP). Studies should propose novel or improved methods and approaches to evaluate exposure to and health effects of traffic-related air pollutants as technologies and fuels change, the fleet turns over, mobility transforms, and electrification makes greater inroads.
Specific Objectives: RFA 23-1 seeks to fund studies that can accomplish at least one of the objectives listed below. Note that in meeting the first three objectives, investigators should consider whether their work can effectively include effects in marginalized communities in high-income countries.
HEI considers the following features of the study design important to meet the overall objectives:
