About this opportunity

The National Institutes of Health is issuing a forecast for the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program, a cooperative agreement mechanism to fund academic medical centers that serve as hubs for clinical and translational science research, with application timing to be announced. This is a reissuance supporting integrated research and training environments that accelerate the movement of discoveries from laboratory to clinical practice and community health.

Eligible applicants include higher education institutions (public and private), 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, small businesses, for-profit organizations, state and local governments, tribal governments and organizations, special district governments, housing authorities, independent school districts, faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and eligible federal agencies.

Awards operate under CFDA 93.350 (National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences) and are authorized under Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act. Funding activity is classified as health-related research.

The CTSA Program is congressionally mandated to fund and coordinate a national network providing infrastructure, expertise, training, and collaboration needed to move discoveries across the translational research spectrum. Hub awards support the development, demonstration, and dissemination of methods and technologies that improve efficiency and quality in translational research.

Evaluation criteria include scientific merit and significance of objectives, technical adequacy of experimental design, investigator competency, facility and resource adequacy, budget necessity, relevance to program objectives, and fund availability. Applications undergo peer review by committees of biomedical research authorities, followed by NCATS Advisory Council review and recommendation for award. Project periods range from one to seven years, with electronic fund transfer for disbursement. Financial and programmatic records must be retained for three years from annual financial status report submission.

Forecast synopsis

The purpose of the Congressionally mandated Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program is to accelerate the translation of scientific discoveries into treatments, diagnostics, and health interventions that improve patient and public health by funding and coordinating a national network of academic medical centers that provide the infrastructure, expertise, training, and collaboration needed to move discoveries from the laboratory into clinical practice and community health. The purpose of the reissuance of the CTSA Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support a CTSA Hub that provides an integrated research and training environment for clinical and translational science and catalyzes the development, demonstration, and dissemination of methods and technologies that dramatically improve efficiency and quality across the translational research spectrum.

Awards are made under the authorization of Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act as amended (42 USC 241 and 284) and under Federal Regulations 42 CFR Part 52 and 2 CFR Part 200.
