Opportunity Summary:
Limited Competition Archiving and Dissemination of Research Data on Aging (P30) is an NIH discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-AG-12-013) focused on sustaining and strengthening a national infrastructure for aging-related research data. The award mechanism is a P30 Center Grant, which is typically used to support shared resources and core services that enable a broader research community. In this case, the funding supports the continued operation and development of the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging, with an emphasis on making it a more user-friendly, widely used archive for behavioral and social science research on aging.
The core purpose of the opportunity is fourfold. First, it aims to maintain the archive's existing data collections and further develop them so researchers can more easily discover, access, and use datasets relevant to aging. Second, it supports providing expert guidance to researchers on how to document and archive both data and metadata properly, which is critical for long-term usability and reproducibility. Third, it places strong emphasis on responsible data sharing for secondary analysis, meaning the archive is expected to help researchers share data in ways that allow others to reanalyze it while still protecting confidentiality, privacy, and sensitive information. Fourth, it is designed to actively facilitate secondary analysis by offering user support services, improving access pathways, and providing training and consultation so that researchers at different skill levels can effectively work with the archived data.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a health-related funding opportunity under CFDA 93.866 (Aging Research). The total estimated funding listed is $560,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on October 5, 2011, with an original and current closing date of February 2, 2012, and an archive date of March 4, 2012, indicating that it is now closed and retained for historical/reference purposes.
Eligibility is broad across U.S.-based organizations and governmental entities. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (with the noted distinctions); small businesses and other for-profit entities (with the exception that foreign entities are not eligible). The eligibility language also explicitly includes several institution types and community-serving organizations such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and eligible federal agencies. At the same time, it clearly excludes non-U.S. (foreign) institutions, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations, and foreign components as defined by NIH policy.
