Understand Staff Roles
Understand the roles of NIH IC staff and where to find contact information for the appropriate staff at each phase of the application and award process.
Institute and Center (IC) Contacts
Use opportunity-specific contacts listed in each notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) or the application/award contacts listed in eRA Commons. If specific contacts can’t be identified, these general IC contacts, staff directories, and opportunity listings are a good place to start.
Central NIH Office Contacts

Direct your general policy and grants administration questions to one of our central offices. 

You'll find contacts for policy, compliance, human subjects, animal welfare, research training, and more.

eRA Service Desk
Reach out to our eRA Service Desk for technical assistance using ASSIST, eRA Commons, or Internet Assisted Review (IAR).
