The purpose of this announcement is to notify the research community that the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases ( NIAMS ) is interested in receiving Exploratory/Developmental grant applications focused on NIAMS core mission areas. Awards will provide support for innovative projects that introduce novel scientific ideas, model systems, tools, agents, targets, and technologies that have the potential for significant impact, and to substantially advance research within the NIAMS mission. These studies often assess the feasibility of a novel avenue of investigation and involve considerable risk, but have the potential to bring about breakthroughs of high value to the NIAMS research community.
This Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) uses the R21 mechanism, ending NIAMS’s participation in the NIH-wide parent R21 notice of funding opportunity (NOFOs). NIAMS will not accept applications to the Parent R21 Exploratory/Developmental Grant, Clinical Trial Not Allowed or the Parent R21 Exploratory/Developmental Grant, Clinical Trial Required Notices of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) after May 7, 2023 without referencing this NOSI.
Only applications that focus on the core scientific mission areas of the NIAMS, as outlined in the NIAMS Strategic Plan ( https://www.niams.nih.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/NIAMS-StrategicPlan-2020-2024-v1.pdf ), will be accepted under this NOSI.
