Oral Diseases and Disorders Research - R & D Contracts

The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), a component of the National Institutes of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services, awards Research and Development Contracts under Assistance Listing 93.DE7 to support basic, translational, and clinical research in dental, oral, and craniofacial health and disease.

The program funds research projects advancing fundamental knowledge about dental, oral, and craniofacial health and disease, with the objective of translating findings into prevention, early detection, and treatment strategies across the lifespan. The source does not specify a portfolio of recent grant awards, recent award volume, or the timing of the most recent awards; therefore, current activity level cannot be determined from this document. The source does not identify open or recently posted grant opportunities.

All R&D Contract applications undergo initial review by an extramural peer review group composed of subject-matter experts, followed by secondary review and approval by NIDCR's National Advisory Dental and Craniofacial Research Senior staff. Award amounts and funding concentrations are determined at the time of award per the specific R&D Contract solicitation applicable to each opportunity. Applicants should consult with the NIDCR R&D Contracting Official before submitting proposals. Applicants may appeal the technical or procedural aspects of application review through NIH's peer review appeal process.

This program summary lacks sufficient portfolio data — recent award examples, award counts, dollar obligations, assistance-type distribution, and open solicitation information — to support a pursue or skip recommendation. To evaluate fit, contact the NIDCR R&D Contracting Official for current solicitation details, award history, and eligibility requirements.
