Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity (PAR-12-272) comes from the National Institutes of Health, specifically the National Institute on Aging (NIA), and it is aimed at institutions that already hold an active NIA-supported Alzheimers Disease Core Center award under the P30 mechanism. The purpose is not to create a brand-new center from scratch, but to let an existing, ongoing Alzheimers Disease Core Center expand what it can do by submitting a Revision application (what NIH previously called a competing supplement). In practical terms, the Revision is meant to broaden the scientific or operational reach of the currently funded center in a meaningful way, and the key requirement is that the application proposes a new core component rather than simply adding more funds for activities that are already covered.

A major constraint built into the announcement is timing: any requested support through this Revision cannot extend beyond the end date of the parent P30 award. That means applicants have to design the new core so it fits within the remaining project period of their existing Alzheimers Disease Core Center grant. This is an expansion of scope opportunity, not an extension mechanism, and it is limited to centers that are already funded and active under the NIA Alzheimers Disease Core Centers (P30) program.

The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses the grant funding instrument. The activity area is health, with CFDA 93.866 (Aging Research). Cost sharing or matching is not required, which is typical for many NIH opportunities and generally means the applicant is not expected to commit a defined percentage of non-federal funds as a condition of the award (though normal institutional support and resource commitments may still be relevant in review).

Eligibility is broad in the sense that many kinds of U.S.-based organizations can apply, but it is also narrow in the sense that only current NIA-funded Alzheimers Disease Core Centers (P30) are appropriate candidates for a Revision to those awards. Listed eligible applicant types include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including 501(c)(3) and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses, though the underlying “must be an active ADC P30” condition will often be the real limiter), and a range of government entities (state, county, city/township, special district governments, and public housing authorities). The announcement also explicitly includes various institution types and community-based categories such as Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and faith-based or community-based organizations, along with U.S. territories or possessions and regional organizations. At the same time, non-U.S. entities are not eligible to apply, and the announcement is clear that non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible either. Foreign components, as NIH defines them in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are not allowed under this opportunity.

In terms of dates, the opportunity was posted on August 27, 2012 (with a listed creation date of August 23, 2013). The original closing date is shown as May 7, 2015, but the record also lists a current closing date of August 23, 2013 and an archive date of September 23, 2013, indicating this particular listing is no longer active. For historical reference or to verify details in the official announcement language, the full notice is linked at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-12-272.html.

FAQs: NIH NIA Funding Opportunity PAR-12-272 (Revision to an Existing Alzheimer's Disease Core Center P30)

What is PAR-12-272?

PAR-12-272 is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity issued by the National Institute on Aging (NIA). It supports a Revision application (previously called a competing supplement) to expand the scope of an already funded NIA Alzheimer's Disease Core Center (ADC) award under the P30 mechanism.

Which NIH institute is offering this opportunity?

This opportunity is offered by the NIH National Institute on Aging (NIA).

What is the main purpose of this funding?

The purpose is to allow an existing, ongoing NIA-supported Alzheimer's Disease Core Center (P30) to expand its scientific or operational reach in a meaningful way by adding a new core component. It is not intended to start a brand-new center from scratch.

Is this for creating a new Alzheimer's Disease Core Center?

No. The announcement is specifically designed for institutions that already hold an active NIA-supported Alzheimer's Disease Core Center award (P30) and want to expand that currently funded center through a Revision application.

What type of application is required?

The announcement calls for a Revision application, which NIH previously referred to as a competing supplement.

What is the key requirement for the proposed changes in the Revision?

The application must propose a new core component. It is not meant to simply provide additional funds for activities that are already supported under the existing P30 award.

Can the Revision be used to extend the project period of the parent P30 award?

No. This is an expansion-of-scope opportunity, not an extension mechanism. Any support requested through the Revision cannot extend beyond the end date of the parent P30 award.

How does the parent award end date affect the Revision?

The new core component proposed in the Revision must fit within the remaining project period of the currently active Alzheimer's Disease Core Center (P30). Funding requested through the Revision cannot continue past the parent award's end date.

What funding instrument is used?

The opportunity uses the grant funding instrument.

How is this opportunity categorized?

It is categorized as discretionary funding.

What is the activity area and CFDA number?

The activity area is health. The CFDA number listed is 93.866 (Aging Research).

Is cost sharing or matching required?

No. The announcement indicates that cost sharing or matching is not required.

Who is eligible to apply in general terms?

The announcement lists many eligible U.S.-based organization types, including public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and various government entities (state, county, city/township, special district governments, and public housing authorities). It also explicitly includes certain institution categories such as Hispanic-serving Institutions, HBCUs, TCCUs, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, faith-based or community-based organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and regional organizations.

What is the most important eligibility limitation for this opportunity?

Only institutions with an active NIA-supported Alzheimer's Disease Core Center award under the P30 mechanism are appropriate candidates, because the application is a Revision to an existing NIA ADC P30 award.

Are non-U.S. organizations eligible to apply?

No. Non-U.S. entities are not eligible to apply under this opportunity.

Are non-domestic components of U.S. organizations eligible?

No. The announcement states that non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible.

Are foreign components allowed (as NIH defines them)?

No. Foreign components, as defined by NIH in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are not allowed under this opportunity.

When was this opportunity posted?

The opportunity was posted on August 27, 2012 (with a listed creation date of August 23, 2013).

Is this funding opportunity still open?

Based on the dates shown in the listing (including an archive date of September 23, 2013 and a listed current closing date of August 23, 2013), this particular listing appears to be no longer active.

What closing dates are shown in the record?

The record shows an original closing date of May 7, 2015, but it also lists a current closing date of August 23, 2013 and an archive date of September 23, 2013, which indicates the listing is archived.

Where can applicants find the official NIH announcement text?

The full notice is linked at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-12-272.html

Who should be contacted for technical issues accessing the announcement online?

The contact provided for technical help is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV.

Does the opportunity allow simply adding money to existing cores or activities?

No. The Revision is intended to broaden the center's scientific or operational reach through a new core component, not to add funds for activities already covered under the existing award.

Is this opportunity limited to a specific NIH center mechanism?

Yes. It is tied to the Alzheimer's Disease Core Center program under the P30 mechanism and is specifically for an active NIA-supported ADC P30 award.
