Grant and Funding Opportunity Announcements
Pre-Application for the 2009 NIH Director's New Innovator Award Program (X02)
Application Deadline: 1/15/2009
The NIH Director's New Innovator Awards Program was created in 2007 to support a small number of new investigators of exceptional creativity who propose bold and highly innovative new research approaches that have the potential to produce a major impact on broad, important problems in biomedical and behavioral research. The research proposed need not be in a conventional biomedical or behavioral discipline but must be relevant to the mission of NIH. The New Innovator Awards complement ongoing efforts by NIH and its Institutes and Centers to fund new investigators through R01 grants, which continue to be the major source of NIH support for new investigators. The purpose of this FOA is to solicit pre-applications for the NIH Directors New Innovator Award. Pre-applications are a necessary first step in applying for a 2009 New Innovator Award. Pre-applications will be evaluated by a group of external reviewers. Those investigators whose submissions are judged to be the most outstanding will be notified of the opportunity to submit full (DP2) applications under RFA-RM-09-003. All awards will be made under RFA-RM-09-003. No awards will be made under this announcement.
