NIAID Staff

• IMPAC combines a relational database with query tools and business function modules. Before you can access IMPAC, you must obtain a user ID and password. To register, email or call Contact for NIAID Staff. IMPAC and CRISP replace the older IMPAC system.
• Use IMPAC to track and review data on grants and grant applications, including summary statements. Keep in mind, you cannot email summary statements to PIs. Instead, encourage them to register with the eRA Commons where they can view statements online.
• NIAID staff can obtain an IMPAC account by completing the IMPAC II Registration Form.
• Follow the new NIH eRA password policy for IMPAC users who have accounts for ECB or the Query/View/Report (QVR) system. The policy requires that you use at least eight characters and change your password every 180 days. To change your password, and conform to new standards, go to the eRA change password page.
• To access IMPAC applications
  • With your Web browser, navigate to IMPAC II Web applications.
  • In Windows Explorer, double-click IMPAC shortcuts at S:/Shortcuts/IMPAC II Applications.
  • Email the NIH Help Desk to request that they install IMPAC on your computer.

Staff and the Public

• Use CRISP to identify specific projects and investigators or search by scientific concepts, emerging trends, and techniques. CRISP provides a searchable database of biomedical research projects funded by PHS.
