Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, PA-14-320, is an NIH-administered administrative supplement program focused on tobacco regulatory science, specifically the role and impact of flavors in cigarettes, cigars, e-cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco. The main goal is to generate timely, policy-relevant data that can directly inform U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) tobacco product regulatory actions. The program sits within an interagency partnership between NIH and the FDA, where NIH manages the awards while the actual funding comes from the FDA Center for Tobacco Products (CTP). These funds are set aside for tobacco regulatory science as required under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA), Public Law 111-31, which is the legal foundation that expanded FDA authority over tobacco products and created a need for evidence to support regulation.
Because this is an administrative supplement announcement rather than a standalone research project grant competition, it is designed to add targeted, flavor-related aims onto already funded, relevant NIH grants. In practice, the supplements are meant to accelerate the collection of focused evidence without waiting for an entirely new multi-year award cycle. The research emphasis is on understanding how flavors affect factors that matter for regulation, such as product appeal, initiation (especially among youth and young adults), patterns of use, perceptions of harm, addiction potential, and potential differences across product categories (combustible products like cigarettes and cigars versus non-combustible products like e-cigarettes and smokeless tobacco). The underlying intent is to support FDA decision-making with data that can be used in rulemaking, product standards, marketing restrictions, and other regulatory tools tied to flavors.
The opportunity falls under the “Discretionary” category, uses the “Grant” funding instrument, and is grouped in a health-related funding activity category. The estimated total funding listed is $3,000,000, with an expected 15 awards, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number provided is 93.077, identified as Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act Regulatory Research, which signals that the funds and the research scope are aligned with tobacco regulatory science priorities rather than purely investigator-initiated biomedical discovery.
Eligibility is broad and includes many U.S. organization types: public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including both 501(c)(3) and certain non-501(c)(3) entities), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses, though small businesses are also eligible), state and local governments (including counties, cities/townships, special district governments), independent school districts, and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. Additional eligible applicants explicitly include institutions and organizations serving specific populations and regions, such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), as well as faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and eligible federal agencies. Notably, foreign participation is allowed: non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations and foreign institutions) may apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are eligible, and foreign components (as NIH defines them in its Grants Policy Statement) are permitted. That said, as an administrative supplement mechanism, applicants typically need an appropriate active parent award to which the supplement can be attached, and proposed work must remain within the scientific and regulatory scope that NIH and FDA CTP are supporting through this program.
Key administrative dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on August 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 29, 2014, and an archive date of October 30, 2014. These dates indicate the window during which NIH accepted supplement requests under this particular announcement, and the archived status suggests it is no longer open, though it remains useful as a reference point for how NIH/FDA CTP structured flavor-focused supplement initiatives at that time.
For applicants and institutions needing help accessing or linking to the full announcement, the contact listed is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV). The full announcement was hosted on the NIH grants site at the link provided in the source, which typically includes the detailed instructions on eligible parent awards, allowable costs, application components, review considerations, and the specific flavor-related research priorities the agencies wanted addressed.
