Description
This funding opportunity from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) invites R01 grant applications from early-stage and new investigators who come from diverse backgrounds, including those underrepresented in health-related sciences. The goal is to promote workforce diversity by supporting independent research projects aligned with NIDCD's scientific mission areas, which include deafness, communication disorders, and related fields.
Applicants are not required to submit preliminary data, making this opportunity accessible to new investigators. However, all applications must include a letter of affirmation from the applicant's institution verifying the investigator's eligibility under the diversity criteria. Applications lacking this letter will be administratively withdrawn.
This program encourages investigators from underrepresented groups (as defined in NIH notices such as NOT-OD-20-031) to apply and work with their institutions to submit competitive proposals.
