Almost half of all Americans will experience a mental health disorder in their lifetime, yet few will receive effective, evidence-based treatment. Moreover, it is not always clear what works best, for whom, and under what circumstances. PCORI funds comparative clinical effectiveness research (CER) to help patients, caregivers, and clinicians make more informed decisions about health care, including a large portfolio of mental and behavioral health studies. In addition, PCORI is committed to ensuring that patients and other healthcare partners are engaged throughout the entire research life cycle—helping to prioritize research topics, the design and conduct of the studies, and dissemination and uptake of study findings. This presentation will discuss PCORI’s mission to fund CER, our patient-centered research focus, and tips and guidance for ABCT investigators when submitting an application for funding. Both engagement and research funding announcements that invite investigator-initiated topics in mental/behavioral health will be described. Additionally, PCORI-funded investigators will briefly describe their studies’ designs and fit with PCORI’s mission. PCORI program officers and PCORI-funded investigators will also respond to common questions regarding PCORI’s funding priorities, including notable features of the application process, expectations and examples of patient engagement before and during funded research, and considerations for dissemination. Notably, patient and other community partners will be invited to participate in the panel to reflect this year’s theme of ‘Research incorporating community members as equal partners to facilitate sustainable change.
