Additional Information on Eligibility
Foreign institutions are eligible to apply. Faith-based or community-based organizations can apply. Eligible Parent Grants: The following NIH research project grants that will be active and funded at the start of the proposed FIRCA budget period are eligible as parent grants: R01, R37 (MERIT), P01, or U01. PDs/PIs of sub-projects of a program project (P01) or cooperative agreement (U01 and U19) are eligible; Other R, P, and U mechanisms, or significant sub-projects within these mechanisms, will be considered on a case-by-case basis, after consultation with, and pre-approval by, the FIC Program Officer. For example, if an active R21 or R03 is for research in the proposed FIRCA collaborating country, it may be allowed as a parent grant upon pre-approval of the FIRCA Program Director; and Grants reviewed under FIC FOA Requests for Applications, but awarded by agencies outside of NIH, may be eligible as parent grants. Such grants must be pre-approved as parent grants by the FIRCA Program Officer prior to application. Among the mechanisms not generally accepted as parent grants are: Training grants and research contracts and Small Business Innovation Research (R43/R44) and Small Business Technology Transfer (R41/R42) Awards. The parent grant may have been awarded by any NIH Institute or Center (IC), regardless of whether the IC is listed as a Participating Component in this FOA. For the initial FIRCA application, it must have a minimum of 12 months of funding, which may include a no-cost extension, remaining at the time of the FIRCA application deadline to be eligible as the parent grant. For the follow-up application from the foreign collaborator as PD/PI, the U.S. Collaborator s parent grant must simply be active, in a no-cost-extension and/or submitted for renewal on the FIRCA receipt date. See annoucement for additional information.
