Opportunity Summary:
The NIA Academic Leadership Career Award (K07), Funding Opportunity Number PAR-15-078, is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant program focused on strengthening aging and geriatric research within academic settings. The central purpose of this K07 mechanism is to support more senior investigators who already have established expertise and demonstrated leadership skills, and who are positioned to expand and improve the research capacity of their institution in areas related to aging. Rather than functioning primarily as an entry-level career development pathway, this award is aimed at experienced researchers who can provide institutional research leadership, build programs, and help grow the environment for high-quality aging and geriatrics research.
This opportunity falls under the NIH funding instrument type "Grant" and the funding activity category "Health," with CFDA number 93.866 (Aging Research). The program does not require cost sharing or matching, which generally means applicants are not expected to provide non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The announcement was posted and created on January 8, 2015, with an original and current closing date of May 7, 2018, and an archive date of June 7, 2018, indicating that the specific announcement as listed is no longer active for new submissions under that posting.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of U.S.-based organizations that can support an academic or research leadership role. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (both with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, small businesses, and a wide range of government entities such as state, county, city/township, special district governments, and independent school districts. The listing also includes public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities, as well as federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations.
The announcement further clarifies additional eligible applicant categories, emphasizing inclusion of diverse institution types and community-oriented organizations. These include 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). Faith-based and community-based organizations and eligible federal agencies are also identified as eligible in the additional eligibility information. U.S. territories or possessions and certain regional organizations are included as eligible applicants as well.
At the same time, the eligibility rules draw a firm boundary around foreign involvement. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities, foreign organizations, and foreign institutions are explicitly not eligible to apply. In addition, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components (as defined by NIH policy) are not allowed under this opportunity. In practical terms, the applicant organization must be U.S.-based and the work supported under the award must stay within the limits NIH sets for foreign activity under this particular program.
