Opportunity Summary:
PAR-14-187, titled "Revision Applications for NIDCR funded Cooperative Agreements (U01)," is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR). It is not a standalone grant for brand-new projects. Instead, it creates a formal pathway for organizations that already hold an active NIDCR-funded U01 cooperative agreement to request a revision to that existing award. The central purpose is to let current U01 recipients propose significant adjustments to an ongoing project when those changes go beyond minor administrative updates and therefore need to be evaluated through peer review.
The opportunity is built around the U01 cooperative agreement mechanism, which is used when NIDCR expects to have substantial scientific or programmatic involvement during the life of the project. In practical terms, a U01 is still a research award, but it comes with a closer working relationship and more active oversight from NIDCR program staff than a typical research project grant. Because of that shared responsibility, when a project needs to expand, shift emphasis, or request additional funds in a meaningful way, NIDCR may require a competitively reviewed revision application rather than handling the request purely through administrative action.
A key idea in the announcement is the distinction between changes that can be handled administratively and changes that require peer review. Some requests to expand or redirect work may still be considered within the scope of the original approved specific aims, and those may be addressable through administrative processes. However, when the proposed modification is more substantial, such as a notable increase in budget or a more significant change in direction, the FOA indicates that peer review is required. This FOA provides the mechanism for submitting those peer-reviewed revision requests tied to active NIDCR U01 awards.
The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, and the activity category is health, specifically aligned with CFDA 93.121 (Oral Diseases and Disorders Research). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity. The posting and creation dates were April 23, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 7, 2017, and an archive date of June 7, 2017, indicating the opportunity is historical/archived rather than currently open.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of domestic and non-domestic entities, which matters because revisions can involve complex collaborations and multi-institutional structures. Eligible applicants listed include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), state and local governments (state, county, city/township, special district), independent school districts, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, small businesses, and other for-profit organizations. The eligibility information further clarifies that various mission-based and designated institutions and organizations may apply, including HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, tribally controlled colleges and universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian serving institutions, and AANAPISI institutions. Importantly, foreign organizations and foreign institutions are eligible, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are eligible, and foreign components (as defined in NIH Grants Policy) are allowed. Federal government agencies and faith-based or community-based organizations are also included among eligible applicants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is PAR-14-187?
PAR-14-187 is an NIH Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) titled "Revision Applications for NIDCR funded Cooperative Agreements (U01)." It describes how certain applicants may request a peer-reviewed revision to an existing, active NIDCR-funded U01 cooperative agreement.
Is this a grant opportunity for brand-new projects?
No. This FOA is not described as a standalone funding opportunity for new projects. It establishes a pathway for submitting a revision application tied to an already active NIDCR-funded U01 cooperative agreement.
What is the main purpose of this FOA?
The central purpose is to allow current NIDCR U01 award recipients to propose significant changes to an ongoing project when those changes go beyond minor administrative updates and require evaluation through peer review.
Who is this FOA meant for?
It is meant for organizations that already hold an active NIDCR-funded U01 cooperative agreement and want to request a revision to that existing award.
What kind of award mechanism does this FOA use?
The FOA is built around the U01 cooperative agreement mechanism, meaning it involves substantial scientific or programmatic involvement by NIDCR during the project period.
What does "cooperative agreement (U01)" imply in practice?
It is still a research award, but the FOA indicates it comes with closer working relationships and more active oversight from NIDCR program staff than a typical research project grant. Because of this shared responsibility, significant changes may need competitive (peer-reviewed) consideration.
What is a "revision application" in the context of this FOA?
In this FOA, a revision application is a request to modify an existing, active NIDCR-funded U01 award. The FOA focuses on revisions that are substantial enough to require peer review rather than being handled as minor administrative adjustments.
What types of changes might require peer review under this FOA?
The FOA highlights more substantial modifications, such as a notable increase in budget or a significant change in project direction, as examples of changes that may require peer review.
What is the difference between administrative changes and peer-reviewed revisions here?
The FOA draws a line between requests that may be handled administratively (for example, changes that remain within the scope of the original approved specific aims) and more substantial modifications that require peer review (for example, a notable budget increase or a more significant shift in direction).
If a change is still within the original specific aims, does it always require a revision application?
Not necessarily. The FOA indicates that some requests to expand or redirect work may still be within the scope of the originally approved specific aims and may be addressable through administrative processes rather than requiring peer review through this FOA.

This is an NIH funding opportunity sponsored by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR).
