NIAID Clinical Trial Planning Grant (R34 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is providing a grant for researchers who want to conduct their own clinical trials. This grant is specifically for trial planning, meaning it will assist in the planning, design, and paperwork necessary to start the trial. It's important that the proposed trial is driven by a hypothesis and has clearly defined milestone goals.

The research conducted should align with the NIAID's research mission and should be considered a high-priority area within the Institute. To best align your proposal with the NIAID's priorities, we strongly recommend visiting the NIAID website to gain an understanding of the Institute's research mission and which areas of research they identify as high-priority.

It's important to note that this particular grant does not permit the use of funds for the actual execution of the clinical trial, it is solely focused on the preparatory work leading up to a trial.
