This Notice is to inform potential applicants that the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) is revising the Award Budget section of RFA-AR-14-004 "Biomarker Candidate Platforms for Inflammatory Diseases (U44)" as follows:
Award Budget
CURRENT LANGUAGE:
Budgets up to $225,000 total costs per year for Phase I and up to $1,500,000 total costs per year for Phase II may be requested.

According to statutory guidelines, total funding support (direct costs, indirect costs, fee) normally may not exceed $150,000 for Phase I awards and $1,000,000 for Phase II awards. With appropriate justification from the applicant, NIAMS will allow awards to exceed these amounts by up to 50% ($225,000 for Phase I and $1,500,000 for Phase II).
Applicants are strongly encouragedto contact NIH program officials prior to submitting any application in excess of the guidelines. In all cases, applicants should propose a budget that is reasonable and appropriate for completion of the research project.
All other aspects of the FOA remain unchanged.
