NIH Overview, Updates, and How RLCD Can Assist

Audience:  Faculty, researchers, postdocs, and PhD students considering the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a funding source

• Mission and Structure of NIH

• Getting a Sense of What NIH Funds

• Funding Mechanisms and Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs)

• NIH Electronic Application Submission Process and Tools

• How the Application and Review Processes Work

• Roles of the NIH Extramural Staff

• Recent updates in policies and application requirements

Resources and types of assistance provided to potential NIH applicants by the Research and Large Center Development Office also will be discussed.
