NIA Revision and Resubmission Program Project Applications (P01) | PAR 16 359

Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 16 359

The NIA Revision and Resubmission Program Project Applications (P01) opportunity (PAR 16-359) is a National Institutes of Health discretionary grant announcement from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) that focuses specifically on program project grants (P01s). It is designed for two main situations: (1) investigators who already hold an active, NIA-supported P01 and want to submit a revision to expand the scope of that ongoing award, and (2) applicants who previously submitted a P01 application to NIA that was not funded and now want to submit a resubmission, including resubmissions of earlier, unfunded revision requests. In all cases, the work proposed needs to fit within scientific areas that align with the NIA mission, meaning it should clearly address aging-related health and research priorities relevant to the institute.

For revision applications tied to an existing NIA P01, the emphasis is on adding substantial new scientific content to the parent program project. That expansion can take the form of building out an existing project within the program or proposing one or more entirely new projects that integrate with the broader P01 structure. A key constraint is timing: a revision cannot extend the overall project period past the end date of the current parent P01. In practical terms, the revision funds and work must fit within the remaining active period of the already-funded award, rather than adding extra years onto the grant.

Eligibility is broad and includes many common public and private research and community-serving organizations. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and a wide range of nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3), as long as they are not institutions of higher education when applying under those nonprofit categories). For-profit organizations (other than small businesses) and small businesses are also eligible, as are additional “other” entities as defined by NIH.

The announcement also highlights particular categories of eligible applicants, reflecting NIH’s inclusion of diverse institution types and community-based partners. These include Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, eligible federal agencies, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions. These entities may apply as long as they otherwise meet NIH and opportunity-specific requirements.

Restrictions related to foreign involvement are explicit. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions/organizations) are not eligible to apply as the applicant organization, and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are also not eligible to apply. However, the opportunity allows foreign components as defined in the NIH Grants Policy Statement. This distinction generally means a U.S.-based applicant can include certain foreign collaborations or performance sites when appropriately justified and compliant with NIH policy, even though a foreign institution cannot serve as the primary applicant.

Administrative details in the source data indicate this is a health-related grant program under CFDA 93.866. The opportunity was created on 2016-07-07, and the original closing date listed is 2018-01-24.
