The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for pilot projects aimed at enhancing the utility and usage of Common Fund data sets, specifically under the R03 grant mechanism. This initiative invites applications that leverage data from at least two designated Common Fund programs to foster innovative research and generate hypotheses, with a total funding of approximately $3 million anticipated for FY 2025 to support 8-10 projects, each with a budget limit of $200,000 over a one-year period. The funding opportunity is crucial for advancing biomedical and health-related research by encouraging data sharing and collaboration among a diverse scientific community. Interested applicants must submit their proposals by June 27, 2024, and can direct inquiries to NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov.
