The UAB Center for Engagement in Disability Health and Rehabilitation Sciences (CEDHARS) invites research proposals for secondary data analysis on health or rehabilitation outcomes in adults or children with disabilities with attention to secondary health conditions, correlates, modifiable factors, and social determinants of health. Comparative research on health disparities in people with disabilities versus non-disabled populations is encouraged. Applying data science to create clinical predictive rules for health and rehabilitation outcomes is within the scope of this initiative. Priority Areas and Available Resources While any relevant, publicly available dataset may be used, priority will be given to research projects that seek to utilize CEDHARS data repositories, including the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC); UAB Spinal Cord Injury Model System (SCIMS) Center; UAB Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (TBIMS) Center; and National Center on Health, Physical Activity and Disability Registry (NCHPAD-Connect). CEDHARS will provide technical support for accessing CEDHARS data repositories. Applicants are encouraged to contact the leader of each data repository for consultation: NSCISC Yuying Chen [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> UAB SCIMS Rachel Cowan [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> UAB TBIMS Jenny Marwitz [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> NCHPAD Connect Tapan Mehta [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Eligibility * UAB faculty of all tracks, postdoctoral fellows, PhD candidates, and graduate students are eligible to apply as principal investigators.
