American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
NIDCD Administrative Supplements

Closed: No longer accepting applications.

The NIH has now published an administrative supplement Notice for NIH investigators (NOT-OD-09-056). NIDCD is poised to offer a number of administrative supplement opportunities, described below. We expect to award these supplements during summer 2009. Supplements will provide funds for up to two years of support, as funds allow. Opportunities to provide or retain job positions are of the highest priority, and the number of positions supported with these ARRA funds will be closely tracked, monitored, and reported to the NIH, Congress, and the public.

How to Proceed:
1) Read the NIH Notice (NOT-OD-09-056).

4) Follow application preparation guidelines as stated in the NIH Notice (NOT-OD-09-056), taking into consideration any additional requirements of the specific NIDCD supplement opportunity.
