Opportunity Summary:
The NIDCD Patient Oriented Research Grant (R21), Funding Opportunity Number PA-06-086, is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant opportunity run through the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD). Its central aim is to support patient-oriented research projects that fall within NIDCDs core mission areas: hearing, balance, smell, taste, voice, speech, and language. In practical terms, the opportunity is meant for studies that directly involve human participants and are focused on questions that can improve understanding, diagnosis, treatment, or clinical management of communication and sensory disorders. Because it uses the NIH R21 mechanism, it is generally geared toward early-stage, exploratory, or developmental work that can generate feasibility data, test a novel approach, or open a new research direction rather than support a large, multi-year definitive clinical trial.
This opportunity is categorized as a grant under the Health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.173 (Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders). The announcement specifies that cost sharing or matching is not required, which is typical for NIH research grants and means applicants do not need to commit non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The listed award ceiling is $200,000, indicating the maximum amount available under this FOA as presented in the source summary. Applicants would still need to follow the full NIH and FOA-specific budget rules and limits described in the complete announcement, but the headline figure signals that NIDCD intended these awards to be relatively modest in size compared with larger NIH mechanisms.
A notable feature of this FOA is its broad eligibility. It is open to many types of organizations, including public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and a wide range of nonprofit entities (including both 501(c)(3) organizations and certain nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status). It also allows applications from for-profit organizations (other than small businesses, as listed in the eligibility summary). Beyond that, the eligibility notes explicitly state that foreign institutions are eligible to apply, as are eligible federal agencies, and that faith-based and community-based organizations may apply. The FOA also includes multiple tribal eligibility categories, including federally recognized tribal governments and other Native American tribal organizations, as well as units of state, local, and tribal government.
In terms of timing and lifecycle, the opportunity was posted on March 3, 2006, with an archive date of June 7, 2009. The listing indicates multiple receipt dates rather than a single deadline, with a current closing date shown as May 7, 2009 (and a note to consult the full announcement for the specific schedule). That structure typically means NIH accepted applications at standard NIH receipt cycles during the active period of the announcement, rather than only once. Anyone trying to understand the exact submission windows, review dates, and award timing would need to consult the full FOA text, since the listing itself points out that the details are contained in the full announcement.
For reference and official details, the full announcement is linked at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-06-086.html. The listing also provides a general support contact for access and linking issues through the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV, which is intended for technical problems accessing the announcement rather than scientific or programmatic questions about the research scope.
