The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Common Fund is soliciting ideas for potential new scientific programs for fiscal year 2025 or beyond. The Common Fund supports bold scientific programs in which multiple NIH Institutes and Centers collaborate on innovative research to address high-priority challenges for NIH as a whole.
Common Fund programs: - Are NIH-wide (not disease-specific or relevant to the mission of only one or a few Institutes or Centers)
- Require a large, coordinated effort in which many investigators undertake research projects directed at a common goal
- Have specific goals and deliverables that can be achieved in 5 to 10 years
- Are sufficiently large and complex (with an approximate budget of $25 to 50 million/year for 5 to 10 years) to warrant an NIH-wide, coordinated approach
NIH is asking for your thoughts about the greatest opportunity or challenge in biomedical research today and what makes it the right time to address this challenge through a Common Fund program. Submissions are due September 30, 2022. |
