ADDENDUM TO NIMH NOTICE ON UNSOLICITED PROGRAM PROJECT (P01) GRANT APPLICATIONS

RELEASE DATE:  July 24, 2003

NOTICE:  NOT-MH-03-007

National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)
 (http://www.nimh.nih.gov)

This Notice announces an exception to NOT-MH-00-015, the purpose of which
was to prohibit the submission of unsolicited applications for new Program 
Project grants.  Although the NIMH Center for Mental Health Research on AIDS 
(CMHRA) is not soliciting such applications, it will consider accepting them if 
they are proposing research on areas of high priority in the NIMH AIDS research 
efforts (see http://www.nimh.nih.gov/oa/cmhra.cfm#CENTERFORMENT for a 
description of the NIMH AIDS areas of programmatic interest).  When an 
investigator has developed a concept for such an application, he/she should 
contact an NIMH CMHRA staff member (as listed at 
http://www.nimh.nih.gov/dmdba/index.cfm#cmhr) for approval before submitting 
the application.  A P01 submission must include a letter of approval from the 
Director, CMHRA, NIMH.  In addition, all applications requesting $500,000 or 
more in direct costs for any year are subject to the existing procedure for 
approval prior to submission (for more information about this procedure, 
see NOT-OD-02-004).

All other aspects of Notice NOT-MH-00-015 remain unchanged.
