Posted by admin on Friday, March 26, 2004 - 01:10 PM

NIH Guide The NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts serves as the official publication of NIH policies, procedures, and availability of funds. The NIH considers applications for the support of basic or clinical biomedical, behavioral, and bioengineering research. NIH encourages research in areas of top priority (such as stem cell research) by publishing PAs, RFAs, and RFPs, as follows
Program Announcement (PA): announces increased priority and/or emphasizes particular funding mechanisms for a specific area of science; applications accepted on standard receipt dates on an on-going basis. (A PAR is a PA for which special referral guidelines apply, described in the PAR.) Request for Applications (RFA): identifies a more narrowly defined area for which one or more NIH institutes have set aside funds for awarding grants; one receipt date, specified in RFA. Request for Proposals (RFP): solicits proposals for a contract; one receipt date, specified in RFP. Search for PAs, RFAs, and RFPs in the NIH Guide that support stem cell research. CRISP Database A search using CRISP (Computer Retrieval of Information on Scientific Projects) will provide you with information on the research projects that are currently supported by federal funds or past projects that were federally funded (1972-present). Search CRISP Try entering “stem cell” (without quotes) in the search terms box and checking Phrase for the Global Logic setting. • Funding Opportunities • Training Grants & Programs • Grants Policy & Guidance
