Opportunity Summary:
The NICHD Consortium for Research on Pediatric Trauma and Injury Prevention (R24) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-14-324) was a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant program created by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). Its core aim was to push pediatric trauma and injury prevention research forward by deliberately bringing together multidisciplinary, collaborative teams to tackle important gaps in knowledge and capability. Rather than supporting isolated projects, the announcement emphasized a team science model in which investigators combine complementary expertise across fields to build momentum toward new discoveries and practical advances for injured children, including prevention, acute care, long-term treatment, management, and rehabilitation.
A central feature of the FOA was the expectation that funded groups would help create a broader, coordinated research effort organized as a consortium. The R24 mechanism was used specifically to form a network of collaborative research teams, and awardees collectively would make up the NICHD Consortium referenced in the announcement. The work supported could include generating a research resource and enabling discovery-based or hypothesis-generating approaches, meaning the program was positioned to support foundational activities that accelerate the field, such as shared platforms, data resources, coordinated methods, or other collaborative products that help the community address pediatric trauma and injury prevention questions more effectively. The announcement also highlighted an interest in breakthrough ideas, concepts, and approaches that could ultimately translate into improved therapies and better outcomes for children.
The funding opportunity sat within the NIH activity area of Health, under CFDA 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research). It did not require cost sharing or matching. The award ceiling listed for this opportunity was $750,000. The FOA was posted and created on August 14, 2014, with an original and final closing date of January 7, 2017, and it was archived on February 7, 2017. In practical terms, that timeline means it is no longer open for applications, but it remains a useful reference point for understanding how NICHD structured a collaborative, consortium-style program in this space.
Eligibility was broad and included many types of domestic U.S. organizations and governments. Eligible applicants included state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; independent school districts; public and state controlled institutions of higher education; and private institutions of higher education. The FOA also allowed applications from nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status, as well as for-profit organizations, including small businesses. Additional eligible categories specifically noted included various minority-serving institutions and mission-driven 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 and eligible federal agencies. Foreign entities (non-U.S. organizations and non-U.S. institutions) were not eligible to apply, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations were not eligible; however, foreign components, as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement, were allowed, which typically indicates that certain project elements can be carried out internationally when scientifically justified and compliant with NIH rules.
Overall, this FOA was designed to strengthen the science base for preventing childhood injuries and improving care for pediatric trauma by using an organized, collaborative consortium model. The emphasis was less on single-lab, incremental progress and more on coordinated teams capable of producing shared resources, generating new knowledge, and advancing innovative concepts that could change how pediatric trauma and injury prevention research is conducted and translated into real-world improvements. For the official archived program text and details, the FOA pointed applicants to the NIH Grants Guide entry at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-14-324.html, with NIH Office of Extramural Research support contacts provided for access and linking issues.
