Competitive Revision Supplements to Existing AHRQ Grants and Cooperative Agreements to Enhance Workforce Diversity in Health Services Research

Funding Opportunity Number: PA-22-175

Application Information:

AHRQ recipients with active research grants and cooperative agreements (**excluding** R13 and R36 awards) and career development (Ks) awards) may submit competitive revision applications. The project period of the proposed revision award must be within the approved project period of the parent award and may not exceed the end date of the parent award. Competing revision applications will not be accepted in the final year of the parent grant. Budget requests should reflect the actual needs of the proposed project, depending on the effort and career level of the candidate. Funding requests for large research grant (e.g., R01, R18) supplements are limited by AHRQ to 20 percent of the approved Federal direct costs, plus associated indirect costs, for the project period or $100,000 direct costs, plus associated indirect costs, whichever is less.

The Agency plans to provide funding each fiscal year to support competitive revision awards. The amount of funding is dependent upon the availability of funds. Competing revisions are for one budget period.

Funds will not be awarded for activities performed prior to the funding decision nor for activities to be performed beyond the approved project period end date.

For the purposes of this program candidates to be supported by revision funding must be a citizen or a non-citizen national of the United States or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence (i.e., possess a currently valid Permanent Resident Card USCIS Form I-551, or other legal verification of such status).

Institutions are encouraged to diversify their student, postdoctoral and faculty populations to enhance the participation of individuals that are underrepresented at the national level in health services research.
