Opportunity Summary:
The Indo US Program on Contraception and Reproductive Health Research (CRHR) R01 is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity released through the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). It uses the R01 Research Project Grant mechanism and is designed to support substantial, hypothesis-driven research projects that advance contraception and broader reproductive health priorities through formal collaboration between Indian and U.S. investigators and institutions. The central idea is to build on existing U.S.-India scientific cooperation and create coordinated, peer-reviewed research efforts that combine complementary expertise, resources, populations, and research settings in both countries.
The program emphasizes collaborative research that can lead to real-world improvements in reproductive health, including expanding contraceptive options and strengthening reproductive health outcomes. Projects are expected to address shared concerns relevant to both nations, with the intent to generate impactful scientific findings and, when appropriate, move toward disease prevention strategies, product development, and technology transfer. In practical terms, that means NICHD is looking for applications where the partnership itself is a core strength of the proposal, not an add-on. The collaboration should be structured in a way that enables meaningful joint contributions, such as coordinated study design, shared protocols, joint analysis, and dissemination approaches that benefit both scientific communities.
This opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and falls under the Health, Income Security and Social Services activity category. The associated CFDA listing is 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which is typical for many NIH research grant programs and generally means applicants are not required to provide non-federal funds to match the award amount as a condition of funding.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of U.S.-based organizational types commonly eligible for NIH grants. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits), and multiple levels of government entities such as city or township governments, county governments, special district governments, and state governments. The announcement also recognizes eligibility for tribal governments and tribal organizations, including federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal entities. Additional eligible categories explicitly mentioned include historically underrepresented or mission-driven institutions and organizations, such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs). Faith-based and community-based organizations may also apply, and certain regional organizations and U.S. territories or possessions are included as eligible applicants. The funding notice indicates that prospective applicants should consult the full announcement for any clarifying conditions related to eligibility, especially for organizations that may fall into special categories.
Key administrative details identify the funding opportunity number as PAR-11-091, with a posted and created date of January 5, 2011. The original and current closing date listed is March 4, 2011, and the archive date is April 4, 2011, indicating this specific notice is historical and has been archived. Even so, the summary is still useful as a model for understanding the structure and intent of the Indo-U.S. collaborative research program that NICHD has supported, and it can help applicants recognize what NIH typically expects in binational collaboration-focused FOAs.
For applicants seeking the full official text, the announcement provides an NIH Grants Guide link (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-11-091.html). It also lists contact support through the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster for access or linking issues (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV).
