Opportunity Summary:
The NIDCD Research on Hearing Health Care (R01) funding opportunity (PA-10-253) is a National Institutes of Health discretionary grant program designed to support research that makes hearing health care more accessible and affordable. The central idea is not just to generate new knowledge, but to produce findings that can move quickly into real-world use. Projects are expected to focus on practical improvements in hearing health care, especially in how people gain access to services, how hearing is assessed, and how interventions are delivered, with the end goal of better hearing-related outcomes for the public.
A strong theme throughout the announcement is translation and implementation. NIDCD is looking for research that can be rapidly turned into new or improved approaches that work outside of a controlled research setting. That means applicants should emphasize solutions that are effective and high quality, but also affordable and realistically deliverable to the people who need them. The program also stresses that supported approaches should be implementable and sustainable in everyday care environments, not dependent on special research resources that disappear when a study ends. In practice, this points applicants toward projects with clear pathways to adoption in clinics, community settings, schools, public health programs, or other service delivery systems where hearing care actually happens.
This opportunity uses the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) mechanism, which is typically suited for more mature, fully developed research programs with clearly defined aims and methods. The FOA runs in parallel with a separate announcement that has the same scientific scope but uses the R21 mechanism (PA-10-254), which is generally used for earlier-stage, exploratory, or developmental projects. Applicants choosing the R01 route should be prepared to propose a well-justified, rigorous project plan consistent with the expectations of the R01 format.
Funding levels and the number of awards are not fixed in advance. Instead, NIH indicates that total awards and award counts will depend on the quality of the applications received, along with proposed budgets, project durations, and costs. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of domestic and non-domestic organizations. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (both with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and multiple levels of government such as state, county, city/township, special district governments, and independent school districts. The announcement also includes Native American tribal governments (federally recognized and other than federally recognized), tribal organizations, tribally controlled colleges and universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving institutions, faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and foreign organizations.
Key administrative details include the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance listing under 93.173 (Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders). The opportunity was posted on August 9, 2010, and the original and current closing date listed is September 7, 2013, with an archive date of October 8, 2013. The full announcement is available through NIH at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-10-253.html, and NIH Office of Extramural Research web support contact information is provided for access or linking issues.
