High-Risk, High-Reward Program Offers Unique Opportunities

Application deadlines are coming up in the next few weeks to apply for several of NIH’s High-Risk, High-Reward Research (HRHR) funding opportunities. If you aren’t familiar with these exceptional grants, let me tell you a bit about them and NCCIH’s participation.
The HRHR program catalyzes scientific discovery by supporting compelling, high-risk research proposals that are cross-cutting and have transformative potential but might not fare well in the traditional peer-review process. Applicants are encouraged to “think outside the box” and propose ideas in any topic area relevant to the NIH mission. Funding for the awards comes from the NIH Common Fund and other NIH Office of the Director appropriations, such as to NIH institutes and centers, including NCCIH.
