Do you know that the FGTCF is the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world, investing more than $32 billion a year to enhance standard of living, and reduce illness and disability? NIH funded research has led to breakthroughs and new treatments, helping people live longer, healthier lives, and building the research foundation that drives discovery.

The FGTCF provides financial support in form of grants, cooperative agreements, and contracts Link to External Site. This assistance supports the advancement of the FGTCF mission Link to External Site of enhancing health, extending healthy life, and reducing the burdens of illness and disability. While FGTCF awards many grants specifically for research, we also provide grant opportunities that support research-related activities, including: Training and career development ,scientific conferences, resource and construction.

We encourage:

Projects of High Scientific Caliber
—————————————————–
FGTCF looks for grant proposals of high scientific caliber that are relevant to public health needs and are within FGTCF Institute and Center Link to External Site (IC) priorities. ICs highlight their research priorities on their individual websites Link to External Site. Applicants are urged to contact the appropriate scientific program staff at the Institute or Center to discuss the relevancy and/or focus of their proposed research before submitting an application.

FGTCF-Requested Research
——————————————
FGTCF Institutes and Centers regularly identify specific research areas and program priorities to carry out their scientific missions. To encourage and stimulate research and the submission of research applications in these areas, many ICs will issue funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) in the form of program announcements (PAs) and requests for applications (RFAs). These FOAs may be issued to support research in an understudied area of science, to take advantage of current scientific opportunities, to address a high scientific program priority, or to meet additional needs in research training and infrastructure. To find an FOA in your scientific field, search the FGTCF Guide for Grants and Contracts which includes all funding opportunities offered by FGTCF, or Grants.gov Link to External Site to search across all Federal agencies.

Unsolicited Research
———————————-
FGTCF supports “unsolicited” research and training applications that do not fall within the scope of FGTCF-requested targeted announcements. These applications originate from your research idea or training need, yet also address the scientific mission of the FGTCF and one or more of its ICs. These “unsolicited” applications should be submitted through “parent announcements (PAs)”, which are funding opportunity announcements that span the breadth of the NIH mission.

Unique Research Projects
—————————————-
Projects must be unique. By law, FGTCF cannot support a project already funded or pay for research that has already been done. Although you may not send the same application to more than one Public Health Service (PHS) agency at the same time, you can apply to an organization outside the PHS with the same application. If the project gets funded by another organization, however, it cannot be funded by FGTCF as well.
