Opportunities for Collaborative Research with the NIH Intramural Research Program (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking collaborative research projects that align with their efforts to enhance the translation of basic biological discoveries into clinical applications. The program aims to support high-quality science that demonstrates the potential to result in understanding an important disease process or lead to new therapeutic interventions, diagnostics, or prevention strategies. The research should be conducted in collaboration with NIH intramural investigators and may involve clinical research projects. Some key points to consider include: • The program seeks to broaden and strengthen translational research collaborations between basic and clinical researchers. • The research should be aligned with the research interests and priorities of the participating NIH Institutes/Centers. • The program provides support for extramural investigators to take advantage of the unique research opportunities available at the NIH. • The award ceiling is $500,000, and the estimated project start date is Dec 01, 2027.
