Emergency Competitive Revision to Existing NIH Awards (Emergency Supplement - Clinical Trial Optional)

The "Emergency Competitive Revision to Existing NIH Awards (Emergency Supplement - Clinical Trial Optional)" grant, identified by funding opportunity number PA-24-201, allows the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to provide supplemental funding to current NIH awardees. This program aims to address urgent needs resulting from a declared emergency or disaster, such as those recognized under the Stafford Act, public health emergencies declared by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, or other local, regional, or national disasters. The supplemental funding can be used to expand the scope of existing research projects to address these emergent health challenges, including educational, environmental, or health-related activities. The emergency supplement funding can apply to a wide array of NIH-supported research areas, including environmental health, addiction research, minority health, musculoskeletal diseases, and hazardous substances research. The opportunity is open to a diverse range of applicants, such as small businesses, higher education institutions, state and local governments, tribal organizations, nonprofit organizations, and other eligible entities, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and other minority-serving institutions. Both domestic and non-U.S. institutions are eligible to apply, although foreign organizations must meet specific criteria. Applications for this supplement must be tied to a Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) published by an NIH Institute or Center (IC) related to the declared emergency. This requirement ensures that the proposed projects are directly responsive to the specified health crisis. The program does not have specified funding limits for award ceilings or floors, and cost-sharing or matching funds are not required. Award durations are flexible, depending on the nature of the emergency and the proposed project needs. The grant opportunity is open from April 18, 2024, until April 18, 2027, giving applicants a multi-year window to apply for emergency-related funding. Applicants are encouraged to prepare submissions in compliance with specific NOSIs associated with their research area and the emergency being addressed. The official closing date for applications is April 18, 2027, and all applications must be submitted by that time to be considered for funding.
