PAR-25-298-Full-Announcement.html

This document is a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the Research Enhancement Award Program (REAP), issued by the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health. The program aims to stimulate basic and clinical research at educational institutions that have not been major recipients of NIH support, specifically targeting health professional schools and graduate schools that award NIH-relevant degrees and have received less than $6 million per year in NIH funding in 4 of the last 7 fiscal years.

The grant opportunity supports small-scale research projects proposed by faculty members, with goals of exposing undergraduate and graduate students to meritorious research, strengthening the research environment of applicant institutions, and enabling institutions otherwise unlikely to participate in NIH research programs. The opportunity encompasses multiple federal grant programs across various research domains, including Lung Diseases Research, Cardiovascular Diseases Research, Cancer Research, Mental Health Research, and numerous other specialized research areas, as indicated by the 25 different CFDA program numbers listed in the document.
