University of Mississippi Medical Center The Mississippi Biotechnology Research Park | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "University of Mississippi Medical Center - The Mississippi Biotechnology Research Park" (Funding Opportunity Number: 2010 CIP 02) was a congressionally identified, earmarked award administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Because it was designated by Congress for a specific recipient, it was not a competitive funding opportunity. In practical terms, that means no other organizations could apply, and there was no open solicitation where applicants would be evaluated against each other. The listing existed on Grants.gov primarily as a formal mechanism to allow the named recipient to submit the required federal application forms electronically and to complete the administrative record.

This opportunity was structured as a grant under the broader funding activity category of "Science and Technology and other Research and Development." It anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding level of $6,000,000. The CFDA number associated with it was 11.617, identified as "Congressionally Identified Projects," which is consistent with earmarked projects that Congress directs an agency to fund for a specific purpose and recipient. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Eligibility was explicitly limited. Although the Eligible Applicants field is broadly labeled as "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility details, the eligibility statement clarifies that the only eligible recipient was the University of Mississippi Medical Center - The Mississippi Biotechnology Research Park. This limitation reflects the earmark nature of the project: Congress authorized funding for that institution specifically, and the agency's role was to execute the award consistent with that direction and ensure the necessary federal grants compliance steps were followed.

The opportunity timeline indicates it was posted and created on March 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 12, 2010, and an archive date of May 12, 2010. Those dates are best understood as administrative deadlines for submission of the required paperwork by the designated recipient rather than a window for competitive proposals. In other words, the deadline functioned more like a due date for completing the formal application package than a cutoff for competing submissions.

For administrative support, the listed point of contact was Christopher Hunton, a Grants Technical Assistant, reachable by phone at 301-975-5718. The contact note specifically mentions reaching out if there were difficulties accessing the full announcement electronically, reinforcing that the primary purpose of the posting was to facilitate electronic submission and documentation rather than to solicit applications from the broader public.
