Expiring this NOFO.

NINDS and BluePrint will join the NIH Parent T32 NOFO.

Adding NINDS-specific language.

This notice is to clarify that onlyBasic Experimental Studies Involving Humans (BESH) clinical trials are withinscope of the above NOFOs (PAR-25-020, PAR-25-055, PAR-24-098, and PAR-24-096). BESH are prospective basic science studies involving human participants (also see NOT-OD-18-212). These studies fall within the NIH definition of a clinical trial and also meet the definition of basic research. The types of studies that applicants should submit in response to these NOFOs include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes in humans for the purpose of understanding the fundamental aspects of phenomena without specific application towards processes or products in mind.

NINDS is joining for BRAIN.

The purpose of this Notice is to update the Eligible Individuals (Program Director/Principal Investigator section). This NOFO is only open to individuals that are citizens or non-citizen nationals of the United States or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence to the United States of America.

In April 2021 and September 2021, NIH began providing childcare cost support, respectively to recipients of full-time NRSA fellowships and training grants in recognition that the high cost of childcare impacts graduate student and postdoctoral scholar ability to successfully complete their training and fully participate in the extramural research workforce (NOT-OD-21-074; NOT-OD-21-177; NOT-OD-24-116). Beginning in FY25, NIH will begin providing childcare cost support to individuals supported as full-time recipients of Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Fellow Transition Award (F99/K00) programs during the F99 phase of the award.

This Notice supersedes NOT-OD-21-070 - Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Availability of Administrative Supplements for Childcare Costs for Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) and Individual Fellows and NOT-OD-21-075 - Notice of Correction to Application and Submission Information for NOSI: Availability of Administrative Supplements for Childcare Costs for Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Individual Fellows (NOT-OD-21-070). In accordance with - NOT-OD-24-116 and ongoing efforts to support family-friendly work environments for the NIH-supported workforce, this Notice of Special Interest requests applications for administrative supplements to support childcare costs on NIH-supported F30, F31, F32 and F99 fellowship awards.

Due to the growing cost of individual grant applications and reduced use of the modular budget format, NINDS is faced with a challenging budgetary landscape. To maintain support for as many investigators as possible in this current environment requires careful management of research projects with large budgets. Effective immediately, NINDS will establish a more stringent payline for all grants applications requesting $500,000 or more in direct costs in any year (excluding consortium F&A) submitted in response to PAR-22-242 and PAR-22-243 Notices of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) and their reissues.
