Assistance Listing 93.306

The Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health operates CFDA 93.306, which funded animal resource provision for biomedical research, with the most recent grant award issued on August 15, 2007—over 18 years ago. Do not pursue this program.

The program is defunct. Award activity has ceased entirely since 2007. The portfolio shows a sharp collapse in award frequency: 250 awards in 2003, 33 in 2004, and only 1 in 2007. No grant opportunities have been posted recently. The program distributed $237.9 million in federal dollars across 678 Project Grants, all funded by NIH, between October 2000 and August 2007.

The funded activity centered on providing animal resources and models to biomedical scientists conducting disease-control research. Representative awards include a 2007 grant of $130,218 for developing new mouse models of adult T-cell lymphoma for targeted therapy trials, and multiple 2004 awards funding animal resource provision—including a $1.46 million grant and a $1.48 million award, with typical award sizes in the $100 thousand to $500 thousand range. All 100 percent of awards were structured as Project Grants.

NIH was the sole funding agency across the entire portfolio. The lack of new solicitations, the seventeen-year gap since the final award, and the terminal decline in award frequency indicate the program is no longer active and should not be considered for pursuit.
