Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Limited Competition Revision Applications for Basic Social and Behavioral Research on the Social, Cultural, Biological, and Psychological Mechanisms of Stigma (R01)" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-MD-13-005) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) initiative released through the Basic Behavioral and Social Sciences Opportunity Network (OppNet). Its purpose is to add or strengthen basic stigma-related research within already active NIH R01 projects by supporting revision applications. In other words, it is not a general open call for brand-new R01s focused on stigma; it is aimed at investigators who already have an active R01 and want to revise that funded project to incorporate additional basic behavioral and social science work that directly examines how stigma operates.
The central emphasis is on understanding stigma mechanisms at a fundamental level. NIH is looking for research that digs into the underlying behavioral, social, cultural, biological, and psychological processes that create, sustain, and express stigma. The FOA explicitly allows projects to approach stigma from multiple viewpoints, including the experiences and responses of people or groups who are stigmatized, as well as the perceptions, beliefs, motivations, and behaviors of individuals or groups who hold stigmatizing attitudes. While applicants may situate their work in the context of particular health conditions, the key requirement is that the research stays focused on generalizable stigma mechanisms rather than simply describing how stigma appears in a specific disease area. The intent is to produce foundational knowledge about how stigma works, knowledge that can apply across conditions and contexts.
This announcement was posted on March 20, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 2, 2013, and an archive date of September 2, 2013. The FOA had an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000, and it listed an award ceiling of $100,000. It also states that there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
The funding instrument is a grant, and the mechanism is the R01 in the form of a revision application (sometimes described as an administrative or competitive revision depending on NIH specifics, but here the core point is that it is a revision to an existing R01 rather than a new stand-alone award). The opportunity is categorized broadly as discretionary and maps onto multiple public policy areas such as health, education, environment, and social services, reflecting how stigma research can intersect with many domains.
Eligibility is wide and includes many types of organizations. Eligible applicants listed include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (with certain distinctions noted), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and multiple levels of government such as state, county, city or township, special districts, independent school districts, and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. The eligibility language also highlights inclusion of a broad range of institution types and community-oriented entities, including faith-based and community-based organizations. In addition, the FOA explicitly permits participation from non-U.S. entities: foreign organizations and foreign institutions are eligible to apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are eligible, and foreign components are allowed as defined under the NIH Grants Policy Statement. It also calls out eligibility for organizations serving specific populations and institution categories 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 and Native American Pacific Islander-serving institutions (AANAPISIs), as well as U.S. territories or possessions and regional organizations.
The FOA is associated with a large set of CFDA program numbers spanning many NIH and related research areas (for example, minority health and health disparities research, mental health, alcohol and drug abuse, cancer, aging, child health, environmental health, and others). Practically, this signals that the stigma mechanism focus is relevant across many institutes and centers and can be embedded in diverse ongoing R01 projects, as long as the added aims are clearly basic science-oriented with respect to stigma processes.
