Opportunity Summary:
The Limited Competition Extramural Research Facilities Improvement Program (C06) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity that supports construction-related upgrades to research infrastructure specifically within the National Primate Research Centers (NPRCs). It is a limited competition, meaning it is only open to a defined group of applicants, and in this case the FOA is aimed at the eight NPRCs. The goal is to strengthen and modernize the physical facilities needed to carry out HIV/AIDS-related research using non-human primates (NHPs), including both experimental research spaces and appropriate animal housing environments that enable this work to be conducted safely, effectively, and in compliance with applicable standards.
This program funds physical improvements to biomedical or behavioral research facilities. The types of supported projects include constructing new space, expanding existing facilities, and remodeling, renovating, or otherwise altering facilities to better serve HIV/AIDS-related NHP research needs. In practical terms, this can cover specialized laboratory areas as well as the animal facilities required for humane care, housing, and research operations involving NHPs, as long as the end use is clearly tied to supporting HIV/AIDS research objectives. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as health, with a construction emphasis (CFDA 93.352).
The opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-OD-13-003) was posted on February 21, 2013, with an application closing date of May 7, 2013, and an archive date of June 7, 2013. NIH estimated total funding for this announcement at $4,000,000. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants were expected to contribute a portion of the overall project costs through non-federal resources, consistent with how many construction and facilities improvement programs are structured.
Eligibility is limited and structured around the NPRC community, but the general eligible applicant types listed include private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status) other than institutions of higher education. Foreign participation is explicitly restricted: non-U.S. entities (foreign institutions) are not eligible, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components (as defined by NIH Grants Policy) are not allowed. These constraints reinforce that the program is intended to improve U.S.-based NPRC infrastructure.
For additional official details, NIH provided an information link to the full announcement at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-OD-13-003.html. NIH also listed the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contact (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV) for technical issues accessing the announcement or linking problems.
