Opportunity Summary:
The NIDA Research Education Program for Clinical Researchers and Clinicians (R25) (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-13-084) is a discretionary NIH grant mechanism designed to build research capacity among professionals in clinically focused career paths, specifically in areas tied to substance use, substance abuse, and addiction. The core purpose is to support structured research education experiences that help participants develop the skills and knowledge needed to conduct or apply research in clinical contexts. In practical terms, the program targets individuals who are preparing for careers as clinical researchers, clinicians and service providers, or ideally professionals who can bridge both roles by integrating research and practice. A key boundary of this opportunity is that it is not intended to pay for purely clinical training that is unrelated to research; the supported activities must be research education oriented rather than general workforce or service training.
This opportunity was offered by the National Institutes of Health and aligns with NIDA's mission under CFDA 93.279 (Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs). It used the grant funding instrument, and the funding activity category is Education and Health, reflecting the emphasis on training and career development rather than direct research project support. The program did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can reduce barriers for applicants that might not have discretionary resources to contribute to the program budget. The award ceiling listed for this announcement was $350,000, indicating the maximum amount that could be awarded under the opportunity, depending on NIH decisions and the specific scope proposed.
Eligibility was intentionally broad and included many organizational types across the public, private, nonprofit, and governmental sectors. Eligible applicants included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education, nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (including those other than institutions of higher education), and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profit entities). A wide range of government bodies were also eligible, including state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, independent school districts, and public housing authorities or Indian housing authorities. Tribal eligibility was explicitly included, covering federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations. The announcement also clarified additional eligible categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, and eligible federal agencies. Importantly, non-U.S. entities were allowed to apply, including foreign organizations and foreign institutions, and foreign components of U.S. organizations were permitted consistent with NIH policy language, signaling an openness to international participation when aligned with program goals.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on January 10, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 7, 2015, and an archive date of October 8, 2015. While those dates indicate the specific announcement is now archived, the summary remains useful for understanding the intent and structure of NIDA's R25 research education mechanism for clinically oriented professionals in addiction-related fields. The full announcement was made available through the NIH grants guide, and NIH provided support contacts through the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster for access or linking problems.
