Navigating the National Institutes of Health's Alphabet Soup and Getting to Federal Funding

From Zero to Hero: Navigating the National Institutes of Health's Alphabet Soup and Getting to Federal Funding (Research Committee Sponsored) Presenters: Christine Ngaruiya, MD, MSc, DTM&H Faheem Guirhis, MD Amber M. Sabbatini, MD, MPH Elizabeth M. Schoenfeld, MD, MS Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this session, participants should be able to: Recognize, decipher and communicate using key terminology employed by federal funding agencies and agency contacts Understand the different funding mechanisms and which are appropriate for whom and what type of projects Understand how to read a FOA (Funding Opportunity Announcement) and decipher whether their project would be a good fit Navigate NIH reporter to learn about funded grants similar to their projects Research funding is key to advancing the research and promotion of the emergency medicine clinician-scientist. However, many academic physicians lack the necessary mentorship and knowledge to access and successfully submit applications to federal funding sources such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). In this didactic, we will walk participants through the basics of how to understand, access, and navigate NIH, AHRQ and other federal funding opportunities. We will introduce and explain key terminology used by these funding sources. We will guide participants through navigating the NIH website, in particular, describe institutes and centers including the importance of understanding their respective missions, discuss standard cycle funding and associated due dates. Participants will be guided through a sample Funding Opportunity Announcement highlighting key content and discuss key contacts to be aware of and where to find them. During this time, we will also distinguish between the alphabet soup of federal grant mechanisms with a brief discussion of each, including the purpose, requirements, and support provided by each award type. Finally, we will close with overall guidance on the importance of mentorship and leveraging institutional infrastructure to help facilitate success in navigating the logistical challenges of identifying, submitting, and securing a competitive federally funded grant."
