Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Resource-Related Research Project (R24) grant mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. NIA expects to make 3-5 awards totaling $750,000 total costs in the first year for all projects, and up to $3.5 million over the 5 year project period.
