FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES
FOAs for Revision Supplements
See below for the links to the five FOAs for revision supplements for evidence- based research related to human subjects protection. The turn-around time is very short with applications due on May 25, 2012. One announcement is specifically for UL1 applications funded by NCATS (PAS-12-167). However, the other FOAs focused on awards funded by other ICs may offer opportunities to individuals at CTSA institutions, although all are competing for same funding pool.
