OpportunityTitle: Early Stage Investigator Research Using Nonhuman Primate (NHP) Models (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Other Eligible Applicants include the following:  Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions; Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs); Eligible Agencies of the Federal Government; Faith-based or Community-based Organizations; Hispanic-serving Institutions; Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); Indian/Native American Tribal Governments (Other than Federally Recognized); Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations); Regional Organizations; Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs) ; U.S. Territory or Possession; Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Institutions) are not eligible to apply.

Description: The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to provide tailored support for early stage investigators (ESIs) to initiate basic or translational research with nonhuman primates (NHPs). These awards will allow ESIs additional funds, time to generate preliminary data, and the opportunity to establish all skills needed to set up and run an NHP laboratory independently. It is expected that these awards will thereby improve an ESIs ability to secure larger research awards (e.g., R01) and will facilitate their transition to independent tenure-track positions.
