Opportunity Summary:
The NINDS Program Project Grant (P01) funding opportunity (PAR-13-312) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant issued by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to support large, collaborative research programs in neuroscience and neurological disorders. The central goal is to encourage teams of outstanding investigators to work together in a coordinated, highly interactive way to tackle major scientific questions that align with the NINDS mission. A key idea behind this mechanism is synergy: the proposed projects should be interdependent and designed so that pursuing them together produces clear scientific advantages over funding the same studies separately as individual grants. In other words, NINDS is looking for programs where the combined effort, shared resources, and cross-project integration meaningfully accelerate discovery or enable work that would be difficult to accomplish through isolated projects.
This FOA uses the NIH Program Project Grant (P01) mechanism, which typically supports multiple related research projects brought together under one overarching theme and leadership structure. While the announcement text provided does not list detailed budget or project structure requirements, the P01 concept generally implies a coordinated set of highly meritorious projects that interact scientifically, often supported by shared elements that help the group function as a single integrated program. The focus is on innovative and interactive research, emphasizing collaboration between scientists who might not otherwise work together, and on answering significant questions of high importance to neurological research.
The opportunity falls under the NIH activity and assistance listings for health research, specifically CFDA number 93.853 (Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not expected to commit non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. The announcement was posted on August 5, 2013, with administrative dates indicating a creation date of April 21, 2014, an original closing date of May 7, 2014, a current closing date of April 22, 2014, and an archive date of May 22, 2014. These dates indicate this particular FOA is historical and was time-bounded, so any current application planning would need to confirm whether NINDS has reissued an updated P01 announcement or whether a different active FOA should be used.
Eligibility is broad across public, private, nonprofit, and governmental organizations. Eligible applicants include state and local governments (including counties, cities or townships, and special district governments), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, nonprofit organizations (including those with 501(c)(3) status and those without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education when specified), and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits). The eligibility section also highlights additional eligible categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), along with faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, and U.S. territories or possessions. Foreign institutions are not eligible to apply directly, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are also not eligible to apply; however, foreign components, as defined under the NIH Grants Policy Statement, are allowed, which can permit certain international collaborations under NIH rules.
For more detail, the FOA points applicants to the NIH program page at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-13-312.html. Administrative support is available through the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster contacts listed in the notice for access or linking issues (FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV).
