The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, with other NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs) The National Institute on Aging, The National Eye Institute , intends to promote an initiative by publishing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit applications for research to pursue research programs of high interest to the NIH that integrate engineering and the physical sciences with the life and/or biomedical sciences.
This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.
The FOA is expected to be published about 11/15/2022 with an expected application due date about 2/16/2023.
This FOA will utilize the R21 activity code. Details of the planned FOA are provided below.
This Trailblazer Award is an opportunity for NIH-defined New and Early Stage Investigators (https://grants.nih.gov/policy/early-investigators/index.htm) to pursue research programs that integrate engineering and the physical sciences with the life and/or biomedical sciences. A Trailblazer project may be exploratory, developmental, proof of concept, or high risk-high impact, and may be technology design-directed, discovery-driven, or hypothesis-driven. Importantly, applicants must propose research approaches for which there are minimal or no preliminary data.
A distinct feature for this FOA is that no preliminary data are required, expected, or encouraged. However, if available, minimal preliminary data are allowed. Preliminary data are defined as material which the applicant has independently produced and not yet published in a peer-reviewed journal. All preliminary data should be clearly marked and limited to one-half page, which may include one figure. Applications including data more than one-half page or more than one figure will be considered noncompliant with the FOA instructions and will not go forward to review.
