The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering the Small Research Grant Program (Parent R03 Clinical Trial Not Allowed), aimed at supporting small research projects that can be completed within a two-year timeframe and require limited funding. This program is designed for various types of studies, including pilot projects, secondary data analysis, and the development of research methodologies, while explicitly excluding clinical trials. Grants are capped at $50,000 per year for direct costs, with a total funding period not exceeding two years, and applications will be rigorously reviewed based on scientific merit and relevance to NIH priorities. Interested applicants must submit their proposals by January 7, 2025, and can reach out to the NIH OER Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV for any inquiries regarding the application process.
