This FOA will utilize the NIMH Clinical Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R34) award mechanism and runs in parallel with the following FOAs of essentially identical scientific scope: RFA-MH-11-080, which seeks applications under the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism and RFA-MH-11-081, which seeks applications under the NIH Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R21) award mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The NIMH intends to commit approximately $2,000,000 in FY 2011 to fund 4-6 awards in response to this FOA, and the companion announcements.
