Receipt Date for Center (P30) Applications

This Notice is to remind potential applicants that the receipt date for applications for the NIEHS Core Center Grants Program (P30) is February 1 each year. NIEHS Core Center Grants provide support for an administrative structure, scientific leadership, and shared equipment to multidisciplinary groups of productive scientists with programs in environmental health. Direct research support is NOT provided by the grant, except for limited funds for pilot projects.

The NIEHS currently supports twenty-two Environmental Health Sciences (EHS) and four Marine and Freshwater Biomedical (MFBS) Centers. Because of limitations on the number of Centers that can be supported and the special nature of the program, potential applicants are strongly urged to contact NIEHS staff to discuss the scope, content, size, and timing of any applications for this program. Applications received for the February 1, 2005 receipt date will compete with three extant EHS Centers for funding early in Fiscal Year 2006.
