Weber, N.D., Ph.D., M.P.H.   Many people who have had COVID-19 report that they continue to experience symptoms after the typical recovery time. To advance our understanding of the recovery process, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued a Notice of Intent To Publish Research Opportunity Announcements (OTA-21-015) for the Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection (PASC) Initiative. This notice reflects NIH's intention to improve understanding of PASC, also known as "Long COVID," and to develop strategies to prevent and treat PASC across the lifespan. This is an urgent public health priority in which the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) has specific research interests.   NOTE: While exploratory clinical trials that test strategies to treat symptoms and prevent progression to PASC are an important part of this initiative, they will not be supported by the initial Research Opportunity Announcements. Clinical trials will be the subject of future solicitations.   Read the full post and comment
