Linked applications must include an administrative core, scientific projects and may include other cores as needed to serve the scientific projects.

The R01 is the original, and historically the oldest, grant mechanism used by the NIH to support health-related research and development.

The R21 activity code is intended to encourage exploratory and developmental research projects by providing support for the early and conceptual stages of these projects. These studies may involve considerable risk but may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on a field of biomedical, behavioral, or clinical research. Wed, 18 Sep 2013 00:00:00 EDT http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-313 .htm http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-313 .htm The purpose of the Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA) program is to stimulate research in educational institutions that provide baccalaureate or advanced degrees for a significant number of the Nation's research scientists, but that have not been major recipients of NIH support. AREA grants create opportunities for scientists and institutions, otherwise unlikely to participate extensively in NIH research programs, to contribute to the Nation's biomedical and behavioral research effort. AREA grants are intended to support small-scale research projects proposed by faculty members of eligible, domestic institutions, to expose students to meritorious research projects, and to strengthen the research environment of the applicant institution. Wed, 18 Sep 2013 00:00:00 EDT http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-347 .htm http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-347 .htm Wed, 18 Sep 2013 00:00:00 EDT http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-304 .htm http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PA-13-304 .htm The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Investigator-Initiated Small Research Grant (R03) funding opportunity supports small research projects that can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources. The R03 activity code supports different types of projects including pilot and feasibility studies; secondary analysis of existing data; small, self-contained research projects; development of research methodology; and development of new research technology. Tue, 17 Sep 2013 00:00:00 EDT http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PAR-13-343.htm http://www.ninds.nih.gov/funding/funding_announcements/pa/PAR-13-343.htm To facilitate the cooperation and partnering of public and private funding organizations, universities, academic medical centers, research institutes, contract research organizations, biotechnology companies, and pharmaceutical companies, NINDS has formed the Neurology Network of Excellence in Clinical Trials (NeuroNEXT, www.NeuroNEXT.org). NeuroNEXT has a Clinical Coordinating Center (CCC), a Data Coordinating Center (DCC) and a group of 25 geographically distributed clinical sites. This FOA provides one of a set of three different means by which teams of investigators can gain access to the NeuroNEXT infrastructure. This FOA uses the U01 cooperative agreement mechanism and is open to all eligible applicants, as defined in Section III. Small businesses may wish to consider applying through PAR-11-345 "NeuroNEXT Small Business Innovation in Clinical Trials (U44)". For-profit organizations and Non-profits other than Institutions of Higher Education may wish to consider applying through PAR-11-344 "NeuroNEXT Infrastructure Resource Access (X01)". To foster the development of clinical trialists, the NeuroNEXT investigators who have been selected for their experience and training in neurological clinical research will provide a source of strong mentorship and support to investigators who are early in their careers as approved studies are implemented within the infrastructure.

The program project grant is designed to support research in which the funding of several interdependent highly meritorious projects as a group offers significant scientific advantages over support of these same projects as individual research grants.
