May 3, 2022 Research Bulletin
Volume 3, Issue 9
Dear Colleagues,
It was wonderful to see the CU School of Medicine’s RNA Bioscience Initiative (RBI) featured at last week’s Transforming Healthcare event. Presented by Chancellor Elliman, this community lecture series showcases the extraordinary medical advancements and scientific progress taking place on our campus.
The RBI team shared how their breakthroughs are transforming the future of medicine, opening up a wide range of new treatments, diagnostic tools and therapies. If you weren’t able to make it to the April 26 event, I would encourage you to watch a recording online, including all five speakers’ presentations.
I want to recognize the RBI team and all those involved in organizing this very successful event spotlighting the outstanding basic science research taking place on the CU Anschutz Medical Campus.
Sincerely,
Thomas Flaig, MD
Vice Chancellor for Research
University of Colorado Denver | Anschutz

Special Announcements
NIH posts Research Opportunity Announcement (ROA) for Clinical Trials for the Prevention and/or Treatment of Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection (PASC)
As part of the RECOVER Initiative, the NIH is soliciting applications for clinical trials in individuals over 18 years old for the prevention and/or treatment of PASC.
The NIH is seeking proposals for clinical trials testing a range of interventions and using diverse methods to address symptoms/symptom clusters and the underlying mechanisms of the pathobiology of PASC.
Trial proposals should reflect community and patient engagement. The funding will utilize the NIH's Other Transaction Authority (OTA).
A technical assistance webinar is anticipated tentatively for May 6, 2022. Please check back on the RECOVER funding page and on the NIH funding announcement website for additional information and the registration link.
For additional information please email NHLBI_OTA@mail.nih.gov.

Cancer Center K12 Paul Calabresi Scholar Award
The Cancer Center is now accepting applications for K12 Scholar appointments to the Paul Calabresi Award for Clinical Oncology Research (PCACOR).
The purpose of the PCACOR is to prepare highly qualified cancer clinical researchers called Paul Calabresi Clinical Oncology Research Scholars (Scholars) who can independently design, manage and complete cancer clinical trials.
Scholars learn to communicate and coordinate with multidisciplinary teams of clinical and basic/behavioral research scientists to test rational hypotheses and manage all phases of cancer clinical trials using state-of-the-art laboratory analyses to personalize cancer treatment.
The K12 provides $100,000 in salary support and $30,000 for Research and Development (R&D) per year. Scholars are guaranteed 2 years of support.
- Application Due Date: July 1, 2022 at 5pm
