This grant funds projects to develop, improve, or make accessible research models, tools, and resources for studying human health and diseases, benefiting multiple NIH Institutes or Centers.
Funder: National Institutes of Health
Due Dates: September 28, 2028 (Full application)
Funding Amounts: Estimated total program funding: $5,000,000; ~6 awards expected; individual award ceiling not specified.
Summary: Supports development, improvement, or characterization of broadly applicable research models and methodologies for studying human health and disease.
Description
This funding opportunity from the NIH Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) seeks applications for research projects focused on the development, characterization, or improvement of research models—including new approach methodologies (NAMs)—and related biological materials for studying human health and diseases. Projects should aim to create resources that are relevant across multiple NIH Institutes or Centers (ICs) and address diseases or processes impacting multiple organ systems. The goal is to enhance the availability and utility of models and materials that have broad scientific impact and support a wide range of research disciplines. Proposals that focus only on a single disease, a narrow research area, or the interests of one NIH IC are not eligible.
