NIMH Announces Changes in NIMH Participation on Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs)

---

Notice Number: NOT-MH-10-006

Key Dates
Release Date: November 27, 2009

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

Purpose

As the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is making changes to its Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) for compliance with the Enhancing Peer Review Process, the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) has taken this opportunity to streamline its list of FOAs to simplify and standardize the submission process for our applicants. This change will simplify the announcement selection process and conform with the general use of announcements across the NIH Institutes while continuing to focus on the objectives articulated in the NIMH Strategic Plan. The NIMH encourages the use of the NIH parent grant announcements (R01, R21, R03, Ks, Ts, etc.) and the NIMH-specific announcements (i.e., NIMH collaborative R01, NIMH R34, NIMH collaborative R34, etc.), where possible, for most electronic submission needs.

As of January 8, 2010, NIMH will terminate or withdraw its participation from the announcements listed below. We continue to have strong interest in the topic areas of these announcements, especially those already fully aligned with the NIMH Strategic plan. Applicants should use the NIH parent R01, parent R21, and parent R03 FOAs as well as the general NIMH collaborative R01 FOA, the general NIMH R34 FOA , and the general NIMH collaborative R34 FOA, in addition to other specialized mechanism announcements, to submit applications in 2010. Check the NIMH Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) page frequently for the latest postings of all the current NIMH funding opportunities. Also, check out the NIMH Training web site for access to all the training-related announcements that we support.
