Overview

The Research Enhancement Award Program (REAP) is designed to encourage both basic and clinical research in health professional schools and graduate schools. This program, which does not allow clinical trials, aims to bolster research in universities that produce a significant number of research scientists but have not received substantial support from the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

The primary objective of REAP is to cultivate opportunities for scientists and institutions which otherwise would have limited participation in NIH research programs. Consequently, this strengthens the United States' efforts in biomedical and behavioral research.

REAP grants support small-scale research projects championed by faculty members in eligible domestic institutions. These projects serve to engage undergraduate and/ or graduate students in health professional schools in outstanding research projects. Furthermore, these initiatives aim to fortify the research environment of the applicant institution.

In order to be eligible, institutions must meet a few criteria. They must provide NIH-related baccalaureate or advanced degrees in the health professions and must have received less than $6 million per year in NIH support (total costs) in at least 4 of the last 7 fiscal years.

Please note, for the purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), a college should stand as an independent entity and not be considered part of a wider university system.
