Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
K25 Model Applications
The two attached applications are provided as models for
individuals who are planning to apply for a Mentored Quantitative
Research Career Development Award (K25) from the National
Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). They have been posted
in response to frequent requests for examples of successful
applications that were highly rated by the Initial Review
Group (IRG). One model is on the topic of vascular medicine
and physiology research; the other focuses on haplotype analyses
in coronary artery disease (CAD). The applications are offered
as examples only and should not preclude potential applicants
from seeking further advice from experienced colleagues or
from research training staff members at NHLBI.
The model applications use an earlier version of PHS 398.
However, current applications submitted in response to this
Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for Federal assistance
must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov
(http://www.grants.gov) using the SF 424 Research and Related
(R&R) forms and the SF 424 (R&R) Application Guide.
The SF
424 (R&R) Application Guide for NIH and Other PHS Agencies,
now includes Part 1.7 Supplemental Instructions to the SF
424 (R&R) for Preparing an Individual Research Career
Development Award (CDA) Application ("K" series).
Note in particular that the "Candidate" and "Research
Plan" (sections A-D) combined may not exceed 25 pages.
Please note that this new Application Guide is to be used
with all Adobe application packages, including those for the
K programs.
Information of an identifying and proprietary nature such
as the level of effort, the name of the applicant and the
names of collaborators, mentors, and institutions has been
removed and replaced with the underline symbol “_____.”
In some instances, the applicant’s name has been replaced
with “the candidate,” and the names of institutions
have been replaced with “the institution”. Also,
these model applications do not include the face page; budget
pages; biographical sketch; other support; letters of reference;
statements by sponsor(s), consultant(s), and collaborator(s);
institutional commitment to candidate; literature cited; consortium/contractual
arrangements; consultants; and appendix pages, all
of these must be included in K25 applications.
