Researchers have found that people with obstructive sleep apnea have an increased cardiovascular risk due to reduced blood oxygen levels, largely explained by interrupted breathing. Obstructive sleep apnea has long been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular issues, including heart attack, stroke and death, but the findings from this study, partially supported by the National Institutes of Health and published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, show the mechanism mostly responsible for the link.

NIH Funding Opportunity: ComPASS Coordinating Center
The NIH Common Fund is accepting applications for the Community Partnerships to Advance Science for Society (ComPASS) Health Equity Research Hubs (Hubs). The Hubs will serve as a centralized research resource, providing tailored scientific, technical and collaborative support for sustainable community engagement, research capacity building and training to support ComPASS community-led health equity structural intervention (CHESI) projects in collaboration with the ComPASS Coordination Center (CCC).
The Hubs are one of three complementary initiatives under the ComPASS Program, which also include CHESI projects that intervene on structural factors that create and perpetuate health inequities and the CCC that provides administration, coordination, data and research capacity-building and training support to the CHESI projects.
Letters of intent are due September 30, 2023. Applications are due October 31, 2023.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications to support research projects focused on the expansion of existing or development of new ontologies for behavioral or social science research (BSSR).
Research projects must include multi-disciplinary teams of subject matter experts in one or more BSSR fields, as well as ontology-related informatics and computational approaches. Projects should address health-related behavioral and social science problems not easily solved without improvement in semantic knowledge structures (e.g., controlled vocabularies, taxonomies and ontologies).
Receipt Date: October 3, 2023

The CCTS Regulatory Knowledge and Support Program Highlight
As the regulatory landscape evolves and becomes more complex, the Regulatory Knowledge and Support (RKS) team is here to support the needs of researchers. Most recently the RKS team has attended FDA working groups to identify gaps in the regulatory sciences for in silico methods and good simulation practices. They are also assisting with navigating regulatory pathways and institutional policies for use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within medical records.
