Opportunity Summary:
The NHLBI Investigator Initiated Resource Related Research Projects (R24) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-13-335) is a discretionary NIH grant mechanism designed to build or strengthen shared research resources and infrastructure that can be used by the broader scientific community. Rather than funding a single hypothesis-driven research project, this FOA focuses on projects that improve the overall capacity, efficiency, quality, or reach of ongoing basic, translational, and clinical research in areas aligned with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). In practical terms, the program is meant to support resources that other investigators can rely on to push their work forward, such as platforms, tools, services, coordinated capabilities, or other forms of infrastructure that enable better science across multiple projects and users.
A central expectation is that the proposed R24 addresses a critical national need and clearly fits NHLBI's strategic vision. That means applicants are expected to justify why the resource matters beyond a single lab or institution, what gap it fills nationally, and how it will advance research in NHLBI-related mission areas. The FOA sits within NIH health research funding and maps to several CFDA program areas, 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). The emphasis is on creating something broadly useful, meaning the project should be structured to support a community of users and to enhance ongoing research efforts, not just generate results for one team.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of U.S.-based organizations and governments. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status, where applicable), small businesses, other for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), and a range of government entities such as state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, and public or Indian housing authorities. The FOA also explicitly includes various mission-relevant institutional categories and community-based entities, 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 Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), along with faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and certain tribal organizations. Foreign institutions are not eligible to apply, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are not eligible. In addition, foreign components, as NIH defines them in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are not allowed under this announcement.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) in the health research activity category, and it does not require cost sharing or matching. The opportunity was posted on August 22, 2013, with key dates showing an original closing date of October 29, 2013, a current closing date listed as November 1, 2013, and an archive date of December 1, 2013. The administering agency is the National Institutes of Health, with NHLBI as the issuing institute for this specific FOA. Applicants looking for the full official announcement were directed to the NIH Grants Guide posting at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-13-335.html, and NIH’s Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contact was provided for access or linking issues (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV).
Overall, PAR-13-335 is best understood as an NIH/NHLBI mechanism for investigator-initiated, community-facing research enablement: funding is intended to develop, expand, or improve shared resources and infrastructure that unlock better, faster, or more reliable research across heart, lung, blood, and sleep-related science, with clear justification that the resource serves a broad user base and meets a national-level need aligned with NHLBI priorities.
FAQs: NHLBI Investigator Initiated Resource Related Research Projects (R24) (PAR-13-335)
What is PAR-13-335?
PAR-13-335 is an NHLBI Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for the NIH R24 mechanism titled "Investigator Initiated Resource Related Research Projects (R24)." It supports investigator-initiated projects that build, strengthen, expand, or improve shared research resources and infrastructure for the broader scientific community.
What is the main purpose of this R24 opportunity?
The purpose is to fund resources that increase the overall capacity, efficiency, quality, or reach of ongoing basic, translational, and clinical research in areas aligned with NHLBI. The focus is on research enablement (shared tools, platforms, services, or coordinated capabilities) rather than on one hypothesis-driven research study.
Is this funding meant for a single research project or for shared resources?
This FOA is intended for shared resources and infrastructure that can be used by multiple investigators and projects. It is not primarily aimed at generating results for one team or one lab, but at enabling better science across a community of users.
What kinds of resources or infrastructure can this program support?
Based on the FOA description, supported efforts can include platforms, tools, services, coordinated capabilities, or other forms of research infrastructure that other investigators can rely on to advance their work in NHLBI-relevant areas.

What does it mean to address a "critical national need"?
From the information provided, this means the resource should be justified as broadly important to the scientific community (not just locally useful), should fill a gap that exists at a national level, and should materially strengthen ongoing research efforts in NHLBI-aligned fields.
Who is the intended user base for resources funded under this FOA?
