Grant Description: Purpose. The purpose of this limited pilot funding opportunity issued by NIGMS, NIH is to allow applications for continued support of important legacy resources developed as a result of NIGMS-supported research activities that are not being renewed under the original initiatives, because an initiative is expiring or an award is not renewable due to a fixed duration of funding specified in the initiative. A resource is a non-hypothesis-driven activity to provide data, materials, tools, or services that are essential to making the most timely, high quality, and cost-efficient progress in a field. Additionally, a resource should be available to all investigators for clear purposes that are known. NIGMS will consider funding (or providing partial support) for resources that are central to its mission, not supportable by other institutes/centers initiatives, and not yet self-sustaining or commercializable. A resource must show great potential for having high value to a community of researchers that the institute supports with its granting programs. This funding opportunity is designed only to support continuation of existing resources, not to develop new ones. The support requested must be for funding of maintenance activities only, and not for research activities. Because this is a limited pilot, awardees should be aware that support may not continue beyond the funding period. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the R24 grant mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the number, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
