Basic and Preclinical Research on Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) [R21]: - This initiative encourages CAM and conventional researchers to carry out basic and/or preclinical research on CAM with an aim to understand the mechanisms of action of a CAM modality.-Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the number, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.-The total project period for an application submitted in response to this funding opportunity may not exceed 2 years. Direct costs are limited to $275,000 over an R21 2-year period, with no more than $200,000 in direct costs allowed in any single year.-This funding opportunity will utilize the R21 mechanism, but will be run in parallel with a program announcement of identical scientific scope (PA-05-141) that will utilize the traditional research project grant (R01) grant mechanism. -Eligible organizations: For profit and not-for-profit organizations, public or private, including eligible agencies of local, state and federal governments. Domestic or foreign institutions may apply.-Eligible Project Directors/Principal Investigators (PD/PIs): Any individual with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research. These investigators are invited to work with their institution to develop an application for support. Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for NIH support.-Applicants may submit more than one application, provided they are scientifically distinct.
