NCRR Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA) (R25): -The National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) invites applications for Science Education Partnership Awards (SEPA) program whose goals are to foster the development of novel programs to improve K-12 and the general public's understanding of the clinical trial process as well as the health science advances stemming from National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded clinical and basic research. The SEPA program supports the creation of innovative partnerships between biomedical and clinical researchers and K-12 teachers and schools, museum and science center educators, media experts, and other interested educational organizations. Particular importance will be given to SEPA applications that target K-12 science educational topics that may not be addressed by existing science curricula, community-based or media activities. -NCRR encourages applicants to submit proposals that will educate the general public on the clinical trials process and of the safeguards provided for patients participating in these trials. NCRR also encourages proposals that target topics that may not be addressed in existing K-12 science education curricula or by other community and media activities. -This FOA will use the NIH Research Education (R25) grant mechanism.

An applicant is expected to have a scientific and/or education mission that relates to the NCRR mission areas reflected in this FOA SEPA funding is not intended to provide continuing support for ongoing projects. However, it is appropriate to use a successful, existing model for a new project that is responsive to SEPA program needs. SEPA funding is not intended to co-support large-scale science center/museum projects, films or televised science education projects where the cost of the proposed project will exceed the SEPA award amount of $250,000 in direct costs per year. SEPA projects at science centers and museums must be clearly identifiable, stand-alone exhibits. Applicants are required to include a plan for Training in the Responsible Conduct of Research (see Section IV.6). Applications must contain an evaluation plan and a dissemination plan. Applications submitted without these sections may be delayed in the review process or not reviewed. Applicants may submit more than one application, provided each application is scientifically distinct.
