Health Grants

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH parent opportunity supports research projects built around international collaborations between a U.S. (domestic prime) organization and foreign partners, and at least one international subproject is required. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply as the prime; non-U.S. entities cannot apply directly, though funded foreign components are allowed. It is aimed at research institutions and universities pursuing health-related projects that need talent, populations, or resources found in other countries. Applicants should expect to manage a linked prime-and-foreign-subaward structure.

This NIH (X01) opportunity does not provide cash funding but instead grants investigators access to services from a state-of-the-art Biological Testing Facility to advance contraceptive development or reproductive health research. Applicants do not need current NIH funding, though priority may go to programs already receiving NIH support. Notably, foreign organizations are eligible to apply, but foreign components of U.S. organizations and foreign components in general are not allowed. It suits researchers needing specialized biological testing resources.

This NIH/NIAID Program Project (P01) opportunity funds multi-component research programs in infectious disease and immunology, including HIV, immune dysfunction, allergy, autoimmunity, and vaccine/therapeutic/diagnostic development. Each application must include at least two related research projects plus an administrative core, so it is geared toward research institutions with established teams. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible, though foreign components are allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted under this NOFO.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH Research Education Program (R25) funds the development of courses, curricula, and educational methods that strengthen the biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research workforce. It is aimed at institutions that can commit staff, facilities, and educational resources, and proposed activities must be distinct from any existing federally funded training grants (such as T32) at the applicant. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible and foreign components are not allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH/NIAID Resource-Related Research Project (R24) opportunity funds the creation or support of shared scientific resources that benefit high-priority research in infectious disease and immunology. NIAID expects to use it infrequently, only when other funding mechanisms are not appropriate, so it is a narrow opportunity for research institutions. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible, though foreign components are allowed, and clinical trials are not permitted.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH award is open only to U.S. institutions located in IDeA-eligible states/jurisdictions (a fixed list including Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, Mississippi and others) that grant doctoral degrees in health-related sciences or are NIH-funded biomedical research institutes. It funds the expansion and sustainability of existing Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence, building faculty, research projects, and core facilities. Eligibility is narrow: it is a limited competition by invitation, applicants may hold no more than three active COBRE awards, and foreign organizations and foreign components are not eligible.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

The NIH Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA, R25) funds educational projects that increase understanding of biomedical research among pre-college (pre-K through grade 12) students and encourage interest in STEM careers. It suits universities, research institutions, and education-focused organizations that can run science education programs. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible and foreign components are not allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH/NIAID (U01) cooperative agreement funds the implementation of investigator-initiated, milestone-driven clinical trials that need enhanced oversight, optionally including mechanistic studies, for up to 5 (or extended 6-7) years. A clinical trial is required and only one trial may be proposed per application, so it suits research institutions ready to run a defined trial in infectious disease or immunology. Eligibility is comparatively open for NIH: foreign organizations and foreign components of U.S. organizations are both eligible to apply, and foreign components are allowed.

National Institutes of Health · Up to $500K

This NIH (U01) cooperative agreement funds research into the human behaviors that affect oral and systemic health among people with chronic conditions, including projects that develop or test causal hypotheses, with a stated budget up to about $500,000. It is aimed at research institutions studying behavioral, biological, and psychosocial drivers of health outcomes. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible and foreign components are not allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted under this NOFO.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH/NCI (U01) cooperative agreement funds research using cancer epidemiology cohort studies to address gaps in cancer causes and survivorship, including cohort infrastructure, continued follow-up, and data/biospecimen sharing. It is aimed at research institutions running or analyzing large epidemiologic cohorts. Eligibility is comparatively open for NIH: foreign organizations and foreign components of U.S. organizations are eligible to apply, though foreign components as defined by NIH are not allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted under this NOFO.

National Institutes of Health · Up to $500K

This NIH/NIDCR (U01) cooperative agreement funds investigator-initiated observational or biomarker validation studies that require prospective collection or continued analysis of data and biospecimens, with a stated budget up to about $500,000. It is aimed at research institutions in NIDCR (dental, oral, and craniofacial) mission areas. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible and foreign components are not allowed. Clinical trials are not permitted under this NOFO.

National Institutes of Health · Up to $500K

This NIH (R01) Bioengineering Research Grant funds multidisciplinary projects that apply engineering approaches to biomedical, clinical, or translational problems, with a stated budget up to about $500,000. It supports clinical trials that validate performance but excludes Phase III trials, conventional non-translational trials, and commercial production. Eligibility is relatively broad for an NIH grant: both foreign organizations and foreign components of U.S. organizations are eligible to apply, though foreign components (as defined by NIH) are not allowed.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH career development award (K32) supports up to three years of mentored research and career development for early-stage postdoctoral scholars, with applications submitted around the start of the postdoctoral position. It is an institutional/mentored mechanism aimed at developing future independent investigators, so it suits universities and research institutions. Only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible, though foreign components are allowed.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH/NIAMS Small Grant (R03) is a limited competition restricted to existing recipients of certain mentored career development awards (K01, K08, K23, K25 or comparable federal/non-federal awards) in NIAMS mission areas. It provides up to $50,000 in direct costs per year for up to two years to support short, self-contained projects that help researchers transition to independence. Eligibility is narrow and by invitation, and only domestic U.S. organizations may apply; foreign organizations are not eligible. Clinical trials are not allowed.
