Opportunity Summary:
Revision Applications to Promote Collaborative Research on Addiction at NIH (CRAN) Comorbidity Related Research (R01) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity (RFA-DA-14-014) designed to provide additional, targeted support for researchers who already hold an active NIH R01 award and want to expand that ongoing project in ways that advance the goals of the Collaborative Research on Addiction at NIH (CRAN). The central idea is not to start a brand-new standalone study, but to submit a revision application that augments an existing R01 so the parent project can contribute more directly to CRAN priorities, especially in cross-cutting areas that connect substance use, substance use disorders, and addiction with other health outcomes. This particular call emphasizes comorbidity-related research, meaning projects that address addiction alongside other co-occurring conditions, complications, or intersecting health consequences.
The opportunity falls under the discretionary grant category and uses the NIH grant funding instrument. It is positioned within health and education-related research areas and aligns with multiple CFDA program listings, including Alcohol Research Programs (93.273), Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (93.279), and Cancer Control (93.399). That mix of program areas signals an interest in research that bridges traditional boundaries, such as work that links addiction science with broader biomedical and public health questions, including disease prevention and control topics when relevant. The stated purpose is to strengthen collaborative and integrative research that improves understanding of substance use and addiction and their related health consequences, rather than keeping those topics siloed.
Financially, the FOA lists an estimated total funding amount of about $3,000,000 and an award ceiling of $150,000. In practical terms, that ceiling functions as a cap on the amount of additional funds that can be requested through the revision mechanism for any single award, encouraging focused, additive aims that meaningfully extend the parent R01 without turning the revision into an entirely new project. The FOA specifies that cost sharing or matching is not required, which is consistent with many NIH research grant mechanisms and reduces the burden on applicants to provide non-federal funds.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations typically able to apply for NIH research funding. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status, where applicable), small businesses, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, independent school districts, and a wide range of local and state government entities (cities, townships, counties, states, special district governments, and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities). The eligibility list also explicitly incorporates a variety of mission-driven and community-serving institutions and entities, 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), as well as faith-based or community-based organizations and eligible federal agencies. Importantly, the announcement states that non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations and foreign institutions) may apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are eligible, and foreign components are allowed as defined under the NIH Grants Policy Statement. This reflects NIH’s willingness to support research capacity and collaborations that extend beyond the United States when scientifically justified.
Timing details show the opportunity was posted and created on July 15, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 24, 2013, and an archive date of October 25, 2013. Those dates indicate it was a time-limited solicitation with a specific submission window, typical of RFAs aimed at advancing a defined programmatic priority over a particular period. Even though the FOA is archived, its structure is still useful as a model for how NIH uses revision supplements to steer active projects toward emerging or high-priority scientific needs.
Administration and oversight sit within the NIH, and the full announcement was made available through the NIH grants guide. Applicants were directed to the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) for technical help accessing or linking to the announcement, with contact through the OER webmaster. Overall, the FOA is best understood as a targeted investment meant to accelerate CRAN-relevant science by leveraging the momentum, infrastructure, and proven feasibility of already-funded R01 projects, while nudging those projects toward collaborative, cross-cutting addiction and comorbidity research questions with clear public health relevance.
