About this opportunity

The National Institute on Aging is forecasting a Notice of Funding Opportunity to solicit new, renewal, and competing revision applications for U54 Specialized Center cooperative agreements supporting large-scale, complex research projects with multiple integrated components focused on aging and/or Alzheimer's Disease and AD-related dementias research; no application deadline has been announced, and applications are not currently being solicited.

Eligible applicants include public and private higher education institutions, 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, state and local governments, tribal governments (both federally and non-federally recognized), small businesses, for-profit organizations, faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, and U.S. territories or possessions. Projects are expected to involve integrated multidisciplinary investigator teams within a single institution or a consortium of institutions. NIA anticipates funding only a limited number of meritorious applications under this announcement.

Renewal or revision applications must adhere to requirements outlined in the parent NOFO under which the original application was funded. The cooperative agreement structure supports large-scale, complex research initiatives with multiple highly integrated components addressing a common research question relevant to NIA's programmatic priorities. NIA program staff consultation is strongly encouraged prior to application to assess project responsiveness and fit with agency priorities.

The funding is assigned to Assistance Listing 93.866 (Aging Research). Review and award timelines follow standard NIH processes: initial scientific review by non-NIH scientists followed by secondary review by the National Advisory Council on Aging. Evaluation criteria assess scientific merit, technical adequacy of experimental design, investigator competency, facility adequacy, budget justification, and relevance to announced program objectives.

Forecast synopsis

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit new, renewal, and competing revision applications, and their resubmissions, for U54 Specialized Center cooperative agreements that support large-scale, complex research projects with multiple highly integrated components focused on a common research question relevant to aging and/or Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD) research. It is anticipated that such projects will likely involve an integrated multidisciplinary team of investigators within a single institution or a consortium of institutions. If submitting renewal or revision applications the research objectives and scope of applications submitted through this NOFO must adhere to the requirements outlined in the parent NOFO under which the original application was funded.

Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to contact NIA program staff prior to applying to discuss the responsiveness of their proposed research to this NOFO and its relevance to NIA's programmatic priorities. Applicants should be aware that NIA anticipates funding only a limited number of meritorious applications under this announcement. Given this high level of competition, consultation with program staff will help applicants determine whether their proposed project is a good fit for the goals and priorities of this NOFO.
