Description
This FOA encourages Exploratory/ Developmental Research
Project (R21) applications for design and development of novel technologies to
monitor health or deliver care in a real-time, accessible, effective, and
minimally obtrusive way. These may be novel sensor or monitoring systems,
home-use point-of-care devices, home or mobile therapy or rehabilitation tools,
or information systems and should have the goal of fostering healthy and
independent living. The development of such technologies has the potential to
significantly improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, people
aging with mild impairments, as well as individuals with chronic
conditions.
