Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (PAR-12-010) is an NIH Funding Opportunity Announcement for competitive revision (sometimes called a competing supplement) applications to existing, active NIH R01 awards. The core idea is to let current R01 investigators expand the scope of their already funded projects to include research questions that directly inform tobacco product regulation under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA), Public Law 111-31. The work is framed as "tobacco regulatory science," meaning studies that can generate evidence the FDA can use when developing, implementing, or evaluating rules and other regulatory actions affecting tobacco products, their constituents, marketing, use patterns, and health impacts.
A key feature is that applicants must already hold an active R01 funded by one of the participating NIH Institutes and Centers listed in the FOA. The application is not for a brand-new R01; it is specifically for a revision to an existing award, with the revision proposing new aims or an expanded direction that fits the FDA Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) regulatory priorities described in the announcement. Importantly, projects that did not originally focus on tobacco are still eligible as long as the proposed revision clearly adds tobacco-related research that aligns with FDA regulatory authority and priorities. In practice, this means a researcher studying behavior, cancer prevention, mental health, environmental exposure, child health, or related areas could propose a well-justified tobacco-focused expansion if it produces evidence relevant to regulation.
The funding for these awards is administered by NIH but uses designated funds from the FDA CTP, reflecting a formal interagency partnership between NIH and FDA. The purpose of that partnership is to build the scientific base needed to support evidence-based tobacco regulation, including research that can help the FDA evaluate product standards, understand the public health effects of tobacco products and nicotine delivery, assess the impact of communications and marketing, and consider how regulations may influence initiation, addiction, cessation, and population-level harm. The FOA emphasizes that the NIH and FDA share an interest in research that aids both the development of new regulations and the evaluation of existing or proposed regulatory approaches.
From a funding and logistics standpoint, the FOA anticipated about 20 awards with an estimated total funding level of $10,000,000. The listed award ceiling is $250,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on November 9, 2011, created January 20, 2012, and had a closing date of February 17, 2012, with an archive date of March 19, 2012, indicating it was a time-bound solicitation rather than an open-ended standing program.
Eligibility is broad at the organizational level, covering many types of applicants commonly eligible for NIH grants: state, local, and tribal governments; public and private institutions of higher education; nonprofit organizations (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status in certain cases); small businesses; for-profit organizations other than small businesses; independent school districts; special district governments; and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. The FOA also explicitly includes a range of mission-focused and community-serving entities 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 or community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and eligible federal agencies. Foreign institutions and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are allowed, and foreign components (as defined by NIH policy) are permitted, which signals the program’s openness to global expertise when it advances FDA-relevant tobacco regulatory science.
The activity is categorized as a grant under a discretionary program, and the funding activity category is listed under education, environment, and health, with associated CFDA numbers that span environmental health, sleep disorders, mental health research grants, cancer cause and prevention, cancer control, and child health and human development. That mix reflects how tobacco regulatory science cuts across many health domains, from toxicant exposure and disease outcomes to addiction, behavior, and vulnerable populations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) - NIH FOA PAR-12-010 (Competitive Revisions to Active R01s for Tobacco Regulatory Science)
What is PAR-12-010?
PAR-12-010 is an NIH Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for competitive revision applications (also called competing supplements) to existing, active NIH R01 awards. The revision is intended to add new aims or expand the scope of an already funded R01 so it includes research that directly informs tobacco product regulation.
Is this a brand-new R01 grant opportunity?
No. This FOA is specifically for a competitive revision to an existing, active NIH R01 award. It is not a solicitation for a new standalone R01 application.
Who can apply to this FOA?
Applicants must already hold an active R01 funded by one of the participating NIH Institutes and Centers listed in the FOA. The revision must expand that active award in a way that fits the FOA's tobacco regulatory science purpose and priorities.
Do projects have to be originally focused on tobacco to be eligible?
No. Projects that did not originally focus on tobacco are still eligible, as long as the proposed revision clearly adds tobacco-related research that aligns with FDA regulatory authority and the priorities described in the FOA.
What kinds of new research does the revision need to add?
The revision should propose new aims or an expanded direction that generates evidence the FDA can use when developing, implementing, or evaluating tobacco product regulations. The FOA frames this as tobacco regulatory science tied to FDA Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) priorities.
