About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking applications for a Research Resource for Human Organs and Tissues program through a Cooperative Agreement, designed to enable the continued availability of human tissues and organs to biomedical researchers. The program's primary objective is to provide a wide variety of human tissues and organs, both diseased and normal, to qualified investigators, with an emphasis on facilitating procurement, preservation, and distribution of these research materials. Applicants will be evaluated based on criteria including scientific merit, experimental design, investigator competency, available resources, budget necessity, and relevance to program objectives. The evaluation will assess the technical adequacy of the proposed approach, the qualifications of the research team, and the potential impact of the research. This funding opportunity is posted on August 26, 2024, with a proposal due date of September 25, 2025, and is open to a diverse range of applicant types including higher education institutions, tribal governments, nonprofits, small businesses, and government entities.

While specific award amounts are not explicitly stated, this cooperative agreement will support a comprehensive research resource program aimed at advancing biomedical research through tissue and organ availability. The research will be performed at the recipient organization's facilities, with an expectation of creating a robust infrastructure for tissue and organ procurement and distribution. The project is expected to have a significant impact on medical research by providing researchers with critical biological materials. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which implies substantial NIH involvement and collaboration throughout the project's implementation. This program is part of multiple NIH research grant programs, including those focused on Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research, Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research, and Vision Research.
