Description
The Institutional Development Award (IDeA) for Clinical & Translational Research (CTR) program aims to enhance biomedical research capacity in states that have historically received low levels of NIH funding ("IDeA states"). The program supports two main tracks:
- CTR Development (CTR-D): Focuses on developing the clinical and translational (C&T) research workforce and enhancing infrastructure at organizations with limited clinical research capacity.
- CTR Network (CTR-N): Supports statewide or multi-state networks to expand infrastructure, develop the research workforce, and coordinate competitive C&T research programs addressing diseases and health challenges prevalent in IDeA states.
This is a limited competition opportunity. Applications are peer-reviewed, and only meritorious proposals will be considered for funding.
