14/24 The Healthy Brain & Child Development National Consortium Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO BANDOLI, GRETCHEN E (contact); GAHAGAN, SHEILA San Diego, CA 2021
NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (Collaborative U01- Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-020
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) will establish a normative model of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life. All sites in the HBCD-NC will carry out a common research protocol and will assemble and distribute a comprehensive research dataset to the scientific community. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. Most participants will be recruited in the second trimester of pregnancy, with a smaller subset recruited at birth, and followed for the first 10 years of life. The University of San Diego study site will recruit a diverse cohort of mother-infant pairs, including Hispanic and American Indian individuals.

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Consortium Administrative Core (U24 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-022
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) Administrative Core (HCAC) will coordinate efforts across all sites in the HBCD-NC consortium to ensure that the consortium meets its primary objective to establish a normative model of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. The HCAC will oversee study design and monitor the progress of each site’s ability to carry out a common research protocol and will assemble and distribute a comprehensive research dataset to the scientific community. This administrative core is located at the University of California, San Diego.

NOFO Title: HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Data Coordinating Center (U24)
NOFO Number: RFA-DA-21-023
Summary:

The HEALthy Brain and Child Development National Consortium (HBCD-NC) Data Coordinating Center (HDCC) will provide data management and oversight to all HBCD-NC sites to ensure the consortium’s primary objective of establishing a normative template of developmental trajectories over the first 10 years of life is met. The HBCD-NC will collect neural, behavioral, physiological, and psychological measures, as well as biospecimens, to characterize neurodevelopmental trajectories. The HDCC will coordinate data collection, data quality, data harmonization, data sharing, and data analysis efforts that are central to the consortium’s ability to implement a common research protocol. The HDCC will assemble all data across the consortium sites and distribute a comprehensive and well curated research dataset to the scientific community at large. The HDCC is tightly integrated with the HEALthy Brain and Child Development Administrative Core (HCAC) and includes a multi-institution investigative team at the University of Minnesota, University of California, San Diego, and Washington University at St Louis.

1/6 HBCD Prenatal Experiences and Longitudinal Development (PRELUDE) Consortium Enhanced Outcomes for Infants and Children Exposed to Opioids HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study (HBCD) NIDA ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL RES INST OU, XIAWEI (contact); ACHESON, ASHLEY; MCKELVEY, LORRAINE M Little Rock, AR 2023
NOFO Title: Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): HEAL Initiative: Biospecimen Collection in Pregnancy
NOFO Number: NOT-DA-23-005
Summary:

Opioid use during pregnancy is associated with adverse outcomes for pregnant individuals and offspring. The mechanisms through which these outcomes arise and the consequences of prenatal opioid exposure on child health and development remain largely unexplored. The HEALthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) Study is a nationwide longitudinal prospective study of early child development that will assess a broad spectrum of biological, behavioral, social, and health factors among 7,500 pregnant women and their children from pregnancy to mid-childhood. This supplement will expand the biospecimen collection of the HBCD protocol at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to include delivery specimens (placenta, cord tissue, and cord blood). This will provide an unprecedented resource-generating opportunity for the larger scientific community to comprehensively evaluate mechanisms that mediate the connection between substance use during pregnancy and adverse neonatal, infant, and/or maternal health outcomes and inform innovative preventive strategies.
