Funding-Limited Submission – NIH Office of Research Infrastructure Programs – Shared Instrumentation for Animal Research (S10) - PAR-17-075 -- NO INTERNAL COMPETITION; May 31, 2017

Purpose: The Shared Instrumentation for Animal Research (SIFAR) Grant Program encourages applications from groups of NIH-funded investigators to purchase or upgrade scientific instruments necessary to carry out animal experiments in all areas of biomedical research supported by the NIH.

NIH has provided new clarification that only one application per institution may be submitted for the SIFAR S10 program. However, applicant institutions may submit more than one application for the two companion S10 funding opportunities, the High-End Instrumentation (HEI) Grant Program (PAR-17-076) and the Shared Instrumentation Grant (SIG) Program (PAR-17-074).

The UK Vice President for Research received only one application for the SIFAR program by the March 1^st deadline requested for internal expressions of interest in S10 applications. Thus, no internal competition will be held for a SIFAR submission.
