Opportunity Summary:
Support of NIAMS Program Project Grants (P01) (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-11-188) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant funding announcement in the health category (CFDA 93.846, Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research). The central purpose of this opportunity is narrowly defined: it is not a call for brand-new NIAMS Program Project Grant (P01) applications. Instead, it exists only to give a submission pathway for a specific group of investigators who already hold an active, awarded NIAMS Type 1 P01 and who are seeking to apply for their second competing P01 as a renewal, consistent with the policy notice referenced as NOT-AR-05-007. In practical terms, this means NIAMS is not currently accepting new P01 starts under this mechanism; the only applications that fit this FOA are qualifying competing renewal requests from existing NIAMS P01 awardees.
The award is administered by NIH, with an indicated award ceiling of $1,000,000, and it does not require cost sharing or matching. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the opportunity category is listed as discretionary. Key dates in the record include an original posting date of March 31, 2011, a creation date of May 13, 2013, an original closing date of May 7, 2014, a current closing date of May 25, 2013, and an archive date of June 25, 2013, reflecting that the opportunity has since been archived relative to the listed timeline.
Eligibility is broad in terms of organizational types, covering many U.S.-based public and private entities, while still being restricted by the FOA’s core requirement that applicants must already have an active NIAMS Type 1 P01 and be applying for the second competing renewal as described in NOT-AR-05-007. Eligible applicant categories include state governments; county governments; city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those particular nonprofit categories); small businesses; and for-profit organizations other than small businesses, along with other eligible entities as clarified in the announcement. The eligibility listing also explicitly includes certain institution types and community-based organizations such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, and U.S. territories or possessions. At the same time, non-U.S. entities are not eligible to apply, and foreign components of U.S. organizations are not allowed, which effectively limits the work and institutional participation to U.S.-based organizations without foreign project components under this FOA.
For additional details, the FOA points applicants to the full announcement hosted on the NIH Grants Guide website at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-11-188.html. The listed contact for access or linking issues is the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV, which is intended for technical problems accessing the announcement rather than scientific or programmatic questions.
