Opportunity Summary:
The NHLBI Investigator Initiated Resource Related Research Projects (R24) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR 11 090) is a discretionary NIH grant mechanism designed to support investigator-led projects that build or strengthen shared research resources. The central purpose is not to fund a single hypothesis-driven study, but to create or expand tools, services, infrastructure, or other enabling capabilities that make ongoing basic, translational, and clinical research more effective across a broader community of users. In practical terms, the program is meant to amplify the impact of many research projects at once by investing in resources that multiple investigators can use, rather than supporting work that primarily benefits only one lab or one narrowly defined project.
Under this FOA, NHLBI is looking for R24 applications that clearly enhance research capacity in heart, lung, blood, and sleep-related scientific areas aligned with NHLBI interests. The announcement explicitly emphasizes that the supported work should result in resources or infrastructure intended for broader scientific community use, with the aim of furthering research beyond the applicant institution. Examples of what this can mean (at a high level) include developing shared datasets or repositories, building specialized cores or service centers, creating standardized tools or platforms, improving access to unique technologies, or otherwise developing research-enabling infrastructure that improves efficiency, quality, and reach of ongoing studies. The key theme is that the output should be broadly useful and should strengthen the overall research ecosystem, rather than simply purchasing equipment or funding routine operations without a clear plan for community benefit.
The opportunity is issued by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) within the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and it continues NHLBI's standing approach to investigator-initiated R24 resource projects as described in the NHLBI R24 policy guidance referenced in the announcement (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/funding/policies/r24.htm). The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health. The FOA is associated with multiple CFDA program areas that reflect the scientific scope NHLBI supports, including National Center on Sleep Disorders Research (93.233), Cardiovascular Diseases Research (93.837), Lung Diseases Research (93.838), and Blood Diseases and Resources Research (93.839). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity, which means applicants are not required to commit non-federal matching funds as a condition of award.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of organizational types that can credibly develop and operate community-facing research resources. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education (including public and state-controlled universities and private universities), nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small businesses, and multiple levels of government (state, county, city or township, special district governments, and independent school districts). The eligibility list also includes housing authorities and a variety of tribal entities, including federally recognized tribal governments and tribal organizations that are not federally recognized. The FOA also clarifies that additional eligible applicant types include Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions. This breadth signals that NHLBI is open to funding resource-building efforts wherever the capacity exists to create infrastructure that serves a wider scientific community.
From a timeline standpoint, the FOA was posted on January 4, 2011, with an original closing date of January 25, 2014. The record also indicates a current closing date of August 8, 2013, an archive date of September 9, 2013, and a creation date entry of August 8, 2013. In other words, this particular listing reflects an opportunity that has since closed and been archived, but it remains useful as a reference point for how NHLBI structures and describes investigator-initiated R24 resource programs.
