About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health is soliciting grant applications for Basic Research in Cancer Health Disparities (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed) with an application due date of November 16, 2027. Clinical trials are ineligible.
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofits, non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, public or Indian housing authorities, small businesses, tribal governments (federally recognized), higher education institutions (public and private), independent school districts, for-profit organizations, county/city/township governments, special district governments, tribal organizations (not federally recognized), state governments, HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian serving institutions, AANAPISIs, TCCUs, faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, non-domestic entities, and U.S. territories or possessions.
The NOFO encourages innovative studies investigating biological and genetic bases of cancer health disparities, including mechanistic studies of biological factors associated with disparities; development and testing of new methodologies and models; and secondary data analyses. The program aims to expand a nationwide cohort of scientists with expertise in cancer health disparities research and to develop resources and tools such as biospecimens, patient-derived models, and methodologies necessary for basic research in this field.
Applications are evaluated on scientific and technical merit, program relevance, and program balance consistent with NCI and NIH priorities. Review criteria include scientific significance and objectives, technical adequacy of experimental design and approach, investigator competency, adequacy of facilities and resources, budget necessity, and relevance to program objectives.
The opportunity falls under CFDA 93.393 (Cancer Cause and Prevention Research). No cost share is specified. Award ceiling, floor, and expected number of awards are not stated in the source materials.
Synopsis
This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) encourages grant applications from investigators interested in conducting basic, mechanistic research into the biological/genetic causes of cancer health disparities. These research project grants will support innovative studies designed to investigate biological/genetic bases of cancer health disparities, such as (1) mechanistic studies of biological factors associated with cancer health disparities, including those related to basic research in cancer biology or cancer prevention strategies, (2) the development and testing of new methodologies and models, and (3) secondary data analyses. This NOFO is also designed to aid and facilitate the growth of a nationwide cohort of scientists with a high level of basic research expertise in cancer health disparities research who can expand available resources and tools, such as biospecimens, patient derived models, and methods that are necessary to conduct basic research in cancer health disparities.
Eligibility
Other Eligible Applicants include the following: Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions; Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs); Eligible Agencies of the Federal Government; Faith-based or Community-based Organizations; Hispanic-serving Institutions; Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); Indian/Native American Tribal Governments (Other than Federally Recognized); Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations); Regional Organizations; Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs) ; U.S. Territory or Possession.
