NIOSH Small Research Program (R03) | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The NIOSH Small Research Program (R03) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under CFDA 93.262, the Occupational Safety and Health Program. Its core aim is to support smaller, focused research projects that build practical knowledge about workplace health and safety. Specifically, the program is designed to improve understanding of the risks and conditions that lead to occupational diseases and injuries, to test or explore ways to reduce those risks and prevent or minimize exposures to hazardous workplace conditions, and to move meaningful scientific findings into real-world prevention practices and products that can measurably reduce work-related illness and injury. In other words, it is not only about identifying problems in the workplace, but also about generating evidence that can be translated into actionable solutions.

This opportunity was issued as Funding Opportunity Number PAR 12-200, titled "NIOSH Small Research Program (R03)," and uses the grant funding instrument. The estimated total funding listed for the opportunity is $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The announcement notes that standard due dates apply, with submissions due by 5:00 p.m. local time of the applicant organization. Key dates included a posted date of August 1, 2012, an original closing date of September 8, 2015, a current closing date of September 8, 2015, and an archive date of October 8, 2015, indicating the opportunity is historical/archived rather than currently open.

Eligibility is broad across many U.S.-based organization types, reflecting an intention to attract proposals from academic, nonprofit, private sector, and governmental partners capable of contributing to occupational safety and health research. Eligible applicants include higher education institutions (public/state-controlled and private), with particular encouragement for institutions that are often underrepresented in federal research funding, such as Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions. Eligibility also includes nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits), and a wide range of government entities such as state, county, city or township, special district, tribal governments (federally recognized and other than federally recognized), U.S. territories or possessions, independent school districts, and public housing authorities, along with faith-based and community-based organizations and regional organizations. At the same time, the program restricts non-U.S. participation: foreign institutions and other non-domestic entities are not eligible to apply, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components are not allowed as defined by HHS grants policy.

Applicants looking for the full details, including application instructions and any programmatic priorities that were in effect, were directed to the NIH Grants Guide posting for PAR 12-200 at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-12-200.html.
