Research Projects to Enhance Applicability of Mammalian Models for Translational Research (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

US · MD National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant open #PAR-24-306
Response due Sep 07, 2026 · 00:00 UTC

Summary

This NIH funding opportunity (PAR-24-306) invites R01 research grant applications focused on enhancing the applicability of mammalian models for translational research. Clinical trials are explicitly excluded. The program seeks to improve how animal/mammalian models are used to better predict human outcomes in biomedical research. The opportunity is open on a rolling basis from November 2024 through September 2026.

What they want

Technical requirements
  • Clinical trials are not allowed under this funding mechanism
  • Must use mammalian models relevant to translational research
  • R01 grant mechanism required

How they evaluate

Submission: Grants.gov federal grants portal (electronic submission)

Risks & flags
