Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA AG 24 013
The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is offering a discretionary grant opportunity called "NIA Expanding Research in AD/ADRD (ERA) Summer Research Education Program (R25 - Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed)" under Funding Opportunity Number RFA-AG-24-013 (CFDA 93.866). The purpose of this announcement is to strengthen the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRD) research pipeline by expanding and diversifying the future workforce and giving people early in their education or career exploration meaningful exposure to AD/ADRD research. The program is built around the idea that getting students and educators involved early through structured summer experiences can help broaden participation in the field and increase the number of individuals who continue into biomedical, behavioral, clinical, and other research paths focused on AD/ADRD.
This funding supports the development and implementation of summer research education programs specifically aimed at high school students, undergraduate students, and science teachers, with an emphasis on reaching individuals from diverse backgrounds. In practice, applicants are expected to design organized summer experiences that introduce participants to AD/ADRD research environments, methods, and career possibilities. Because the mechanism is an NIH R25 (Research Education Program), the focus is on education and research exposure rather than supporting independent research projects as the primary goal. The listing also makes clear that independent clinical trials are not allowed under this opportunity, meaning the proposed program should not be designed to run an applicant-led clinical trial as part of the award activities.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of U.S.-based organizations and governmental entities. Eligible applicants include state, county, city/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; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3), as long as they are not institutions of higher education when applying in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. The announcement also highlights additional eligible organization types that align with the workforce diversification goal, such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), as well as faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, and U.S. territories or possessions. At the same time, it places firm limits on foreign involvement: non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations and foreign institutions) are not eligible to apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components (as defined by NIH policy) are not allowed.
Key administrative details include an original closing date of May 24, 2024, and an award ceiling of $200,000. While the source data does not specify a number of expected awards, the ceiling indicates the maximum budget level an individual award may request under this announcement. Overall, this FOA is best read as a workforce and training-oriented investment: NIA is looking for well-structured summer programs that can bring high school students, undergraduates, and science teachers into contact with AD/ADRD research, provide mentorship and educational enrichment, and ultimately help build a larger and more diverse community of future investigators and research professionals working on Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.Apply for RFA AG 24 013
