About this program
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) funds environmental health research projects under CFDA 93.ESR, supporting investigator-initiated research that examines how environmental exposures affect biological systems and human health across the lifespan. The program funds development of technologies to assess human environmental exposures and their biological impacts; mechanistic studies of how exposures affect biological systems; epidemiological investigations of health effects from environmental exposures, including gene-environment interactions; community-engaged research; and strategies to reduce exposure burden and improve health at individual and population levels. Studies may involve human subjects, including clinical trials, or non-human or computational model systems where relevance to human health is substantiated.
The source does not provide grant award portfolio data, recent award examples, typical award magnitudes, or information about current grant opportunities. Without access to portfolio statistics, award cadence, or recent disbursement activity, the recency and current funding level of this program cannot be assessed from the information supplied.
Review and selection follow standard NIH procedures: applications undergo initial scientific and technical evaluation through an initial review group and the National Advisory Environmental Health Sciences Council, with selections made in alignment with NIH Unified Funding Strategies and NIEHS strategic priorities. Funded applications then undergo programmatic and policy review before award. Award terms, funding amounts, and other specifics are determined at the time of award and outlined in individual NOFOs. Applicants may appeal substantive or procedural aspects of application review through NIH peer review appeal procedures.
Financial records must be retained for three years from submission of the final financial status report. Specific eligibility criteria, assistance-type mix, and application deadlines are contained in individual NOFOs; the program description does not specify these details.

- Objective
The mission of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is to research how the environment affects biological systems across the lifespan and to translate this knowledge to reduce disease and promote health. Environmental expo
- Description
Research Projects supported by NIEHS include the development of technologies to assess human environmental exposures and the biological impacts of exposure; mechanistic understanding of exposures on biological systems including the use of environmentally derived analytes as probes of fundamental biological mechanisms; epidemiological studies of the health effects of environmental exposures including the interactions between environmental and genetic factors; community engaged research; and the identification of strategies to reduce the burden of exposure and improve human health at the individual and population levels. Studies can involve human subjects, including clinical trials, or non-human or computational model systems provided that relevance to human health is well justified.
