Opportunity Summary:

The NIOSH Support for Conferences and Scientific Meetings (R13) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR 10 272) is a CDC/NIOSH discretionary cooperative agreement designed to help fund high-quality scientific meetings that directly relate to NIOSH's mission and broader public health goals in occupational safety and health. The program is meant to support formal, organized events where experts and stakeholders come together to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate information, or to explore and clarify a specific topic or problem area. NIOSH uses a broad definition of "scientific meeting," which can include conferences, workshops, symposia, seminars, and similar structured gatherings. Funding decisions depend on whether the proposed meeting aligns with NIOSH's current fiscal capacity and its programmatic priorities, which are tied to the agency's focus areas described on the NIOSH website and its program portfolio pages.

This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, which generally indicates that the agency expects to have some level of involvement with the supported activity compared with a standard grant, although the specific nature of that involvement would be described in the full announcement. The activity category is health, and the associated CFDA number is 93.262 (Occupational Safety and Health Program). The announcement anticipated up to about 50 awards, with an estimated total funding level listed as $20,000 and an award ceiling of $20,000 per award (with an award floor of $0). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide matching funds as a condition of receiving an award.

Eligibility is broad but limited to domestic entities. Eligible applicants include private nonprofit and for-profit organizations (including small, minority-owned, and women-owned businesses), universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, and various governmental and tribal entities. State and local governments (and political subdivisions of states, in consultation with states) may apply, and the announcement also recognizes "Bona Fide Agents" that are authorized by a state or local government to apply on its behalf; in those cases, documentation is required in the form of a letter from the relevant government entity, submitted as an attachment in the application package. While both domestic and international conferences may be supported, foreign institutions are not eligible to apply, and support for an international conference is only possible through a U.S. representative organization of an established international scientific or professional society. Individuals are explicitly not eligible to receive a grant to support a conference.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted and created on March 11, 2011, with an original and current closing date of January 14, 2013, and it was archived on February 13, 2013. Applicants looking for full details were directed to the full announcement on the NIH Grants Guide website (linked in the listing).
