Opportunity Summary:
The NICHD Program Project Grant (P01) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-10-245) is a discretionary NIH grant mechanism designed to support large, coordinated research efforts that tackle complex questions central to the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) mission. The announcement emphasizes program project applications that are innovative, multidisciplinary, and intentionally collaborative, meaning the proposed work should be interactive and synergistic rather than a set of loosely related projects. NICHD is looking for integrated research programs focused on reproductive, developmental, behavioral, social, and rehabilitative processes that shape the health and functioning of people across the lifespan, including newborns, infants, children, adults, families, and populations. In practical terms, the goal is to fund research programs where the whole is stronger than the sum of its parts, and where shared scientific direction and cross-project collaboration meaningfully accelerate progress.
A central idea behind the P01 mechanism is that certain scientific problems are too complex to be addressed efficiently by a single research project or by multiple independent projects that happen to share a general topic. This FOA highlights the expectation that applicants will present a coherent theme that links the component projects into a unified program. The program project structure is meant to promote economies of effort, space, and equipment, allowing investigators to share resources and infrastructure and reduce duplication. Under the right circumstances, NICHD views this integrated model as a way to generate knowledge faster and more effectively than piecemeal approaches, particularly when progress depends on close coordination among different scientific disciplines or methodological approaches.
The mechanism of support for this announcement is the NIH Program Project Grant (P01). Because P01s can vary widely depending on the scientific aims and the scope of the collaboration, the FOA does not specify a single, fixed award size or duration. Instead, NICHD indicates that award amounts and project periods will vary by application, and that the total number of awards and total dollars distributed will ultimately depend on the number of applications received, their scientific quality, their proposed duration, and their budgets. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity.
Eligibility is broad and includes a range of institutional types. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, state governments, and nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education where relevant). The FOA also explicitly includes additional eligible entities such as Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), regional organizations, and eligible federal agencies. This wide eligibility reflects NICHDs interest in supporting strong, collaborative science across many organizational settings, provided the application demonstrates the level of integration and synergy expected of a P01.
Administratively, this opportunity is listed under CFDA 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) and falls under the broad activity area of health, income security, and social services. The posting date is August 3, 2010, and the record includes closing and archive dates indicating the announcement is historical (with an archive date of August 1, 2013). For applicants or readers seeking the original full text, the FOA points to the NIH Grants Guide link (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-10-245.html). For access or technical issues with the online announcement, the contact provided is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV.
FAQs: NICHD Program Project Grant (P01) - PAR-10-245
What is the NICHD Program Project Grant (P01) opportunity?
It is an NIH Program Project Grant (P01) funding opportunity from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) intended to support large, coordinated research efforts that address complex questions central to the NICHD mission. The Funding Opportunity Number (FON) is PAR-10-245.
What is the main purpose of this FOA?
The FOA is designed to fund integrated, collaborative, and multidisciplinary research programs where the different components work together in an interactive and synergistic way. The emphasis is on building a unified program in which the overall scientific impact is stronger than what would be achieved by separate, loosely related projects.
What does "interactive and synergistic" mean in the context of this P01?
It means the proposed program should not look like a collection of independent projects that simply share a general topic. Instead, the component projects should be intentionally collaborative, linked by a coherent theme, and structured so that cross-project coordination and shared scientific direction meaningfully accelerate progress.
What kinds of research areas does NICHD want to support through this opportunity?
NICHD is looking for integrated research programs focused on reproductive, developmental, behavioral, social, and rehabilitative processes that shape health and functioning across the lifespan. This includes relevance to newborns, infants, children, adults, families, and populations.
Why does NIH use the P01 mechanism for this kind of work?
The P01 mechanism is used when scientific problems are considered too complex to be addressed efficiently by a single project or by multiple independent projects that only share a broad theme. The structure is intended to enable a coordinated approach that advances knowledge faster and more effectively than piecemeal efforts, especially when progress depends on close coordination across disciplines or methods.
What is expected in terms of program structure?
Applications are expected to present a coherent theme linking component projects into a unified program. The structure should support shared scientific direction and active collaboration among the participating investigators, rather than parallel workstreams with minimal interaction.
Does this FOA require a specific award size or fixed project duration?
No. The FOA does not specify a single fixed award amount or duration. NICHD indicates that award amounts and project periods will vary by application depending on the scientific aims, scope of collaboration, proposed duration, and budgets.
How does NICHD determine the number of awards and total funding under this announcement?
NICHD notes that the total number of awards and total dollars distributed depend on factors such as the number of applications received, their scientific quality, their proposed durations, and their requested budgets.
Is cost sharing or matching required?
No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated for this opportunity.
Who is eligible to apply?
Eligibility is broad. The FOA lists eligible applicants including public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, state governments, and nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education where relevant).
Are minority-serving institutions and tribal institutions included as eligible applicants?
Yes. The FOA explicitly includes Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs) as eligible entities.
Are regional organizations and federal agencies eligible?
Yes. The FOA includes regional organizations and eligible federal agencies among eligible applicant types.
What is the CFDA number associated with this opportunity?
The opportunity is listed under CFDA 93.865, Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research.
What broad activity area does this opportunity fall under?
It is categorized under the broad activity area of health, income security, and social services.
When was this funding opportunity posted?
The posting date listed is August 3, 2010.
Is this FOA still active?
The record includes closing and archive information indicating the announcement is historical, with an archive date of August 1, 2013.
Where can someone find the original FOA text?
The FOA points readers to the NIH Grants Guide page at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-10-245.html
Who should be contacted for access or technical issues with the online announcement?
For access or technical issues, the contact provided is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV.
What is the key idea applicants should keep in mind when proposing a P01 under this FOA?
The key idea is integration: NICHD is looking for a program where shared infrastructure, shared scientific direction, and deliberate cross-project collaboration reduce duplication and create real economies of effort, space, and equipment, producing a combined outcome that is stronger than separate projects would deliver.
