Institute/Center Specific Information |
National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Scientific Program Contacts: Grants Management Contact: |
NHGRI supports resources, approaches, and technologies that accelerate genomic research focused on the structure and biology of genomes; the genomics of disease; the implementation and effectiveness of genomic medicine; computational genomics and data science; the impact of genomic technology, advances, and implementation on health disparities and health equity; and ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) related to genomic advances. In general, NHGRI supports studies that provide generalizable methods and knowledge. Approaches that are comprehensive across the genome or are generalizable across variants, tissues, diseases, or function may be in scope for NHGRI to the extent they address priority areas described in the NHGRI 2020 Strategic Vision: https://www.genome.gov/2020SV Applications for studies relevant only to a particular disease or organ system should be directed to the appropriate Institute or Center. Applications whose primary scientific objective is to understand a single biological or behavioral process, the pathophysiology of a disease, or the mechanism of action of an intervention do not fall under the mission of NHGRI. NHGRI strongly encourages potential applicants to contact program staff in the early stages of developing your application: https://www.genome.gov/research-funding/Funding-Opportunities-Overview/contacts-by-research-area |

National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) Scientific Program Contacts: Grants Management Contact:
|
NIBIB interests include the development and integration of advanced bioengineering, sensing, imaging, and computational technologies for the improvement of human health and medical care. An application is not within the NIBIB mission if its principal focus is the development of a technology with the goal of understanding basic biological function or pathological mechanisms. Additionally, NIBIB only supports projects developing platform technologies that are applicable to a broad spectrum of disorders and diseases. However, applicants may propose research that utilizes only a single tissue, organ, or physiological condition as a model system to facilitate the development of what is expected to be a more broadly applicable enabling technology. Potential applicants are encouraged to contact the appropriate Program Director in their scientific program area of interest (https://www.nibib.nih.gov/research-funding) to determine if their research fits within the NIBIB mission. |

National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Scientific Program Contact: Grants Management Contact: |
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) will accept investigator-initiated research projects using the R03 mechanism for all areas of environmental health science research; particularly those defined as NIEHS special emphasis areas. Details on these areas can be found at NIEHS Supported Programs. To obtain more information about existing NIEHS program areas and their corresponding program administrators, please refer to the NIEHS extramural website at NIEHS Grants Contacts. Investigators should direct scientific questions concerning the use of R03s to the appropriate program administrator responsible for the scientific area proposed. |

NIMH Program Staff contacts Inquiries may be directed to [email protected]. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) |
National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
Grants Management Contact: |
Only applications that fall within the scientific mission of the NINDS will be accepted and considered for funding by NINDS (NINDS Mission). To assess the relevance of an application topic, applicants are strongly encouraged to contact NINDS program staff before submitting. A listing of NINDS program staff can be found at: Program Directors and Managers. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) uses the Small Grants Program (R03) to provide research support for new research projects in areas of high relevance to the mission of the NINDS (NINDS Mission). Priority will be given to applications in any of the following categories:
Priority will be given to research proposals that include a detailed plan for the sharing of resources and data generated under this award. Potential applicants are advised to contact program staff to verify that the proposed research is relevant to NINDS and responsive to one of the listed criteria. A complete listing of program director contacts may be found at: NINDS Program Directors |
National Library of Medicine (NLM) Scientific Program Contact: Clayton Bingham, PhD Catherine Farrell, PhD Goutham Reddy, MD, MS Sung Sug (Sarah) Yoon, PhD Grants Management Contact: |
The National Library of Medicine (NLM) supports innovative research and development in biomedical informatics and data science. This funding opportunity focuses on biomedical discovery and data-powered health, integrating streams of complex and interconnected research outputs that can be translated into scientific insights, clinical care, public health practices, and personal wellness. The scope of NLM's interest in these research domains is broad, with emphasis on new and innovative methods and approaches to foster data driven discovery in the biomedical and clinical health sciences as well as domain-independent, scalable, and reusable/reproducible approaches to discovery, curation, analysis, organization, and management of health-related digital objects. |
