Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) at the National Institutes of Health offered this funding opportunity (PAR-10-233) to support investigator-initiated Program Project Grants (P01) focused on biomedical imaging and bioengineering. The basic idea is to fund a coordinated, multidisciplinary research program that is organized around one clear central theme or major objective, but that tackles a range of related scientific questions. Compared with a standard NIH R01 (which typically supports a single, more contained project), a P01 is meant for situations where multiple projects, run together as an integrated program, create a meaningful scientific advantage through collaboration, shared direction, and complementary expertise.
Under this FOA, proposed programs could fall anywhere within the broad scientific areas supported by NIBIB, including work enabled by physical sciences, engineering, computer and information sciences, and the medical and life sciences, as long as the overall scope fits biomedical imaging and/or bioengineering. The announcement points applicants to NIBIB program areas for alignment, but it is explicitly open to investigator-driven ideas rather than restricting applicants to narrowly defined topics.
A core structural requirement is that an NIBIB P01 application must include at least three interrelated research projects. These component projects need to be connected by a common central theme, focus, and overall objective, and they must be designed so that funding and managing them as a group provides clear advantages over submitting them as separate individual grants. In practice, this means reviewers will expect to see real scientific integration across projects, not just several loosely connected efforts bundled together.
Funding size, project period, and the number of awards were not fixed in advance. Instead, the NIH indicated that award amounts and durations would vary depending on the proposed research scope, and that the total number of awards and dollars ultimately issued would depend on factors like available funds, the number of applications received, and the quality and costs of the proposals that make it through peer review.
From an administrative standpoint, this was a discretionary grant opportunity in the health category, tied to CFDA 93.286 (Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health). It did not require cost sharing or matching. The opportunity was posted July 20, 2010, with an original and final closing date of May 25, 2013, and it was archived June 25, 2013, meaning it is no longer open for new applications.
Eligibility was broad and included many organization types: state, county, city/township, and special district governments; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public and private institutions of higher education; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit organizations (other than small businesses) as well as small businesses; and additional categories such as HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, tribally controlled colleges and universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, faith-based or community-based organizations, eligible federal agencies, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions. The sponsoring agency was the National Institutes of Health (NIH), specifically NIBIB.
The full announcement was hosted on the NIH grants website (PAR-10-233), and the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contact was provided for access or linking issues.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the name and number of this funding opportunity?
This opportunity was offered by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under FOA number PAR-10-233.
What type of grant does this opportunity support?
It supports investigator-initiated Program Project Grants (P01). A P01 is designed to fund a coordinated set of related research projects organized as an integrated program.
What is the main purpose of this P01 funding opportunity?
The purpose is to support a coordinated, multidisciplinary research program focused on biomedical imaging and bioengineering. The program must be organized around one clear central theme or major objective, while addressing a range of related scientific questions.
How is a P01 different from a typical NIH R01?
Based on the description provided, an R01 typically supports a single, more contained project. A P01 is intended for cases where multiple projects, managed together as an integrated program, produce a meaningful scientific advantage through collaboration, shared direction, and complementary expertise.
What scientific areas are considered responsive to this opportunity?
Programs could fall anywhere within the broad scientific areas supported by NIBIB, as long as the overall scope fits biomedical imaging and/or bioengineering. The opportunity includes work enabled by physical sciences, engineering, computer and information sciences, and the medical and life sciences, when aligned with imaging or bioengineering goals.
Does the opportunity restrict applicants to specific research topics?
No. The opportunity is described as explicitly open to investigator-driven ideas rather than being restricted to narrowly defined topics. Applicants are pointed to NIBIB program areas for alignment, but the scope is not limited to a short list of required topics.
What is the minimum number of projects required in an NIBIB P01 application?
An application must include at least three interrelated research projects.
What does "interrelated" mean in the context of the required projects?

What kind of integration do reviewers expect across the projects?
Reviewers are expected to look for real scientific integration across projects, not just several loosely connected efforts bundled together. The program should demonstrate collaboration, shared direction, and complementary expertise that creates a scientific advantage.
Were award amounts and project durations fixed for this opportunity?
No. Funding size, project period, and the number of awards were not fixed in advance. NIH indicated that award amounts and durations would vary depending on the proposed research scope.
