Opportunity Summary:

The NHLBI Research Centers at Minority Serving Institutions (P30) funding opportunity (RFA-HL-11-019) is a National Institutes of Health grant program from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute designed to help Minority Serving Institutions build stronger, more sustainable research capacity in areas tied to heart, lung, blood, and sleep diseases and disorders. The central idea is to establish institution-based research centers that can expand biomedical and behavioral research infrastructure, strengthen resources, and improve an institution's ability to compete and perform high-quality research in these NHLBI mission areas. Rather than funding a single research project, the P30 mechanism supports a center structure, typically emphasizing shared resources, coordinated administration, and a foundation that allows multiple investigators and projects to grow.

This program is structured as a two-phase effort. Phase I is a 2-year recruitment and retention period that also includes establishing an External Advisory Board. Phase I focuses on putting the essential building blocks in place, such as attracting and keeping key scientific talent, organizing governance and oversight, and creating the administrative and scientific foundation needed for a functional research center. Phase II is envisioned as a 5-year period focused on developing the research program and research operations, essentially scaling the center into a mature, productive enterprise. Importantly, this specific announcement funds Phase I only. A later, separate funding announcement was expected for Phase II, and eligibility for that later limited competition would depend on demonstrated success during Phase I.

The award uses the NIH Core Center Grant (P30) mechanism, which generally supports centralized resources and core services that benefit a community of investigators working within the center's theme. In this case, the theme aligns with NHLBI priorities across cardiovascular diseases, lung diseases, blood diseases and resources, and sleep disorders research. The opportunity falls under the broad activity category of health and lists CFDA numbers associated with these NHLBI domains, including 93.837 (Cardiovascular Diseases Research), 93.838 (Lung Diseases Research), 93.839 (Blood Diseases and Resources Research), and 93.233 (National Center on Sleep Disorders Research).

Funding details in the announcement indicate that NHLBI anticipated making up to five awards, with an estimated total funding level of $1,000,000 in total costs in FY2011. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The opportunity was posted and created on March 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 2, 2010, and an archive date of July 3, 2010, reflecting that it is no longer open under that cycle.

Eligibility was aimed at institutions of higher education and explicitly included Minority Serving Institutions. Eligible applicants included public and state-controlled universities as well as private institutions of higher education, with additional eligible categories listed such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, along with other eligible entities as clarified in the full announcement. The program is essentially geared toward strengthening research ecosystems at these institutions by supporting structured center development activities during Phase I, including leadership, advisory input via an External Advisory Board, and the recruitment and retention steps needed to support a longer-term NHLBI-focused research agenda.

For full details, the announcement referenced the NIH Grants Guide page associated with RFA-HL-11-019, and it provided NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contact information for access or technical issues related to the posting.
