Environmental Sensors for Personal Exposure Assessment (U01): -This solicitation is part of an overall effort by NIH in establishing an Exposure Biology Program as part of a larger Gene and Environment Initiative, publicly announced in February, 2006. -Specifically, this FOA is intended to support research projects focused on the development of field-deployable or wearable sensors for monitoring individual exposures to a broad range of airborne chemical and biological agents. A central element is that the sensors produce quantitative, near real-time measurement of multiple analytes at the point of contact with the body (e.g., nose, mouth, skin). It is anticipated that any devices developed through this FOA will be available for applicable to population studies at the end of the funding period. -The total amount of funding to be committed to this program is $16 million (total costs) over 4 years. Each year $4 million will be awarded.

Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Private institutions of higher education Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments) Independent school districts Special district governments Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education Public and State controlled institutions of higher education Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification) Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized) Public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities County governments For profit organizations other than small businesses State governments Small businesses City or township governments
Additional Information on Eligibility: Foreign institutions are eligible to apply. Eligible agencies of the Federal Government can apply. Faith-based or community-based organizations can apply. Milestones All applications must include a specific section labeled Milestones for each year. Milestones should be annual, well-described, quantitative, and scientifically justified and not simply a restatement of the specific aims. Rather, the milestones should offer a timeline and a pathway for the development of the proposed technology. These milestones will be used to judge the success of the proposed research on an individual-project basis. It is expected that the milestones will be adjusted annually at the award anniversary dates to incorporate the group's scientific accomplishments and progress and to reflect any recommendations of the Steering and Advisory Committees. Meetings Because the Exposure Biology Program uses the cooperative funding mechanism, investigators will be expected to attend Steering Committee meetings two times per year and participate in monthly conference calls to discuss their research progress. Funds to support travel of the key investigators to attend these meetings should be included in the application budget.
