A(nother) Run through the NIA Mechanism Maze Robin A. Barr Director, Office of Extramural Activities, NIA rb42h@nih.govhttp://www.nia.nih.gov/
Changes • Changed receipt/submission dates: http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/funding/submissionschedule.htm • R01s, R03s, R21s are electronic. • Changed rules on Appendices: http://grants2.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-07-018.html • Multiple principal investigators http://grants.nih.gov/grants/multi_pi/index.htm
Change contd. • Transition to electronic delayed for Ks, Fs, Ts and complex mechanisms (program projects and centers) (maybe June, August, September 2008) • Shortened grant applications coming soon… maybe
New Investigators – more detail • NIH Director Elias A. Zerhouni, M.D., has noted that in tight budget times, it is more important than ever to fund new investigators and innovative research. • Support for new investigators is the highest NIH priority for FY 2007 • 1500 new investigator R01s in 2007
New Investigators Program at NIH http://grants2.nih.gov/grants/new_investigators/ Pathway to Independence Award NIH Director's New Innovator Award*** NRSA Individual and Institutional Training Awards Career Development Awards - K Kiosk Research Project Grant Program - (R01) NIH Institute and Center Practices Resources for New Investigators
Things that will not change now or in the near future • It is hard to obtain funding. • It is harder to obtain funding if you do not apply. • Most applications that we pay are resubmissions. (One recent funding list, 6 first submission, 7 were A1, 8 were A2 –convenience sample!)
Predoctoral Students • Fellowships (F30, F31) • Training grants (T32, T35) • Supplements to increase diversity • Dissertation awards to increase diversity • MERIT add-on awards .. .. ..
Postdocs • Training Grants (T32) • Fellowships (F32) • L30 (clinical loan repayment contract) • Pathway to Independence (K99/R00) • (two phase, accelerator award)
Junior faculty • Most funding mechs. Available but some are more normative. • L30 continues • Mentored Ks (K01, K08, K23, K25) • Early stage research (R03, R21) • R01 • AREA awards (Smaller schools) • DP2 (New Innovator) but, think carefully!
Early middle to middle • R03, R21, R01, R01, R01 contd. • K02 – independent scientist award (accelerator) • K24 (patient-oriented, combined purpose, mentoring, advancing own research career)
Mature • R01, R01, R01… • P01 (program project) • P30, P50 (Center grants) • K07 – academic leadership • K12 – program career development award (clinical) • T32 – as director of a training grant
NIA RFAs and PASs RFAs • Focus on a particular topic • Single receipt date • Usually about three months notice • Usually special review group • Set-aside money PASs • Somewhat broader focus than RFA • Multiple receipt dates • Regular review groups • Set-aside money
