Grant Description: The National Center for Research Resources is authorized under Sections 481A and 481B of the Public Health Services Act, as amended by Sections 303 and 304 of Public Law (PL) 106-505, to "make grants or contracts to public and nonprofit private entities to expand, remodel, renovate, or alter existing research or animal facilities or construct new research or animal facilities." The facilities will be used for basic and clinical biomedical and behavioral research and research training. In collaboration with the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), NCRR also encourages applications for major alteration and renovation (A and R) projects that support the NIAID biodefense and emerging infectious diseases research agenda. Activities that may be supported include major alteration and renovation of existing biosafety level-3 (BSL-3) laboratory/vivarium space, and the upgrade of BSL-2 laboratory/vivarium space to BSL-3 space in existing buildings. Extensions to existing buildings will be considered. The minimum project size must be 5,000 gross square feet. Biosafety level-2/3 A and R improvement projects that include Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and biodefense-related aerobiology capabilities are encouraged. These biodefense applications will not count toward the limit of two traditional C06 applications per institution. Approximately 6-12 NIAID funded biodefense awards will be made in FY 2005 ($4 million maximum award). This grant mechanism may not be used for the purchase of stand alone equipment that does not include an alteration, renovation or new construction project component.
