Notice Number: NOT-NS-16-016

Key Dates
Release Date: April 14, 2016

Issued by
National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)

Purpose

PAR-14-253 "NIH StrokeNet Clinical Trials and Biomarker Studies for Stroke Treatment, Recovery, and Prevention Infrastructure Resource Access (X01)" is set-up to accept applications on a continuous basis from November 13, 2014 until November 13, 2017 rather than specifying exact due dates. We are updating our grant application forms to implement new requirements for grant applications for due dates on or after May 25, 2016 (FORMS-D; NOT-OD-16-004). This Notice announces our plans to update PAR-14-253 with FORMS-D application forms.

• FORMS-C: On May 25, 2016 we will close the FORMS-C application package and it will no longer show as an option to download from Grants.gov or to initiate an application in ASSIST.
  
  Since these X01 applications do not compete against each other, we have configured our systems to continue to accept FORMS-C applications for these FOAs through July 12, 2016. This allows applications started before May 25 to complete the submission process for the October council round without disruption.
  
  
• FORMS-D: On May 25, 2016 we will post a new FORMS-D application package. Any applications initiated on or after May 25, 2016 must use the FORMS-D application package. Use of FORMS-D will not impact the Council round to which an application is assigned.
