Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Understanding and Treating Co-Morbid Conditions in Adolescents with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (R03)" (Funding Opportunity Number PA-11-040) is a discretionary NIH funding announcement released by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). Its core purpose is to support investigator-initiated research that improves understanding of the factors that shape functioning and quality of life for adolescents with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), with a particular emphasis on co-occurring or co-morbid conditions that can complicate health, behavior, learning, independence, and daily participation. In practice, the FOA is aimed at generating actionable knowledge about what drives outcomes during adolescence, a period when developmental demands increase and many co-morbid issues become more apparent or more difficult to manage.
This announcement uses the NIH Small Research Grant (R03) mechanism, which is designed for smaller, focused projects that can be completed relatively quickly and with limited resources. The FOA explicitly highlights the kinds of projects that fit well under an R03: pilot and feasibility studies that test whether a larger study is possible, secondary analyses of existing datasets that can yield new insights without collecting new data, small and self-contained studies that address a narrowly defined question, and work that builds or refines research methods or technologies relevant to this population. The overall intent is to help researchers produce early-stage findings, proof-of-concept evidence, or methodological tools that can either stand on their own or support later, larger-scale research efforts.
From an applicant standpoint, eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of public and private organizations. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and certain non-501(c)(3) nonprofits), for-profit organizations (including small businesses and for-profits other than small businesses), state and local governments (state governments, county governments, and city or township governments), special district governments, independent school districts, and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. The FOA also indicates expanded eligibility for specific institution types and communities, including 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, U.S. territories or possessions, regional organizations, and tribal entities (including federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations). It also allows participation by non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations), and eligible agencies of the federal government are included as well. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement noted, which generally reduces barriers for organizations that might otherwise struggle to meet a matching component.
Administratively, the opportunity falls under the NIH agency umbrella, with the activity category listed as Health, Income Security, and Social Services and the CFDA number 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research). The FOA was posted and created on November 17, 2010, and it originally closed on January 7, 2014, with the archive date listed as February 7, 2014. In other words, this is an archived funding opportunity rather than an active, currently open competition, but it remains useful as a reference point for the type of research NICHD has sought to stimulate in this area and the R03 mechanism structure they used to do it.
