Opportunity Summary:

The Ruth K. Kirchstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Institutional Research Training Grant (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-054) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to support institutions that want to build, strengthen, or expand structured postdoctoral research training. The central goal is to create high-quality research training opportunities for individuals who intend to pursue long-term careers in primary care research. In practice, the program is designed to help institutions develop a strong training environment that prepares postdoctoral trainees to become productive investigators focused on primary care-related questions, methods, and outcomes.

This opportunity uses a grant funding instrument and falls under the health funding activity category. The program is associated with CFDA 93.186, National Research Service Award in Primary Care Medicine. HRSA anticipated making about 19 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding level of $7,500,000. The announcement did not require cost sharing or matching, which generally means applicants were not obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award, although standard grant budgeting expectations and allowability rules would still apply.

Eligibility was aimed at a range of health professions and training institutions capable of delivering robust postdoctoral research training. Eligible applicants included public or nonprofit private hospitals; schools of allopathic medicine; schools of osteopathic medicine; schools of dentistry; approved residency programs in general or pediatric dentistry; approved advanced education programs in general or pediatric dentistry; academically affiliated physician assistant training programs; and other public or private nonprofit entities. The common thread across these eligible groups is that they are organizations positioned to provide advanced clinical and academic infrastructure, mentoring capacity, and an institutional setting suited for formal research training.

From a timeline standpoint, the opportunity was posted on January 26, 2011 (with the same creation date), and the application closing date was March 11, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on May 10, 2011, indicating it is no longer open under that specific announcement cycle. Applicants and interested parties were directed to HRSA for the full announcement details through the additional information link provided in the source, and HRSA offered access support through its call center and email contact for anyone who had trouble obtaining the full materials electronically.

For help or official clarification, HRSA listed its call center as the point of contact, reachable by email at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and by phone at 877-464-4772 (also referenced as 877-Go4-HRSA). The full announcement page was available through the HRSA grants portal link included with the opportunity, which would have contained the complete requirements, selection criteria, allowable costs, reporting expectations, and the specific structure HRSA expected institutions to use when designing or enhancing their postdoctoral primary care research training programs.
