Strategy for NIH Funding

How to Resubmit   ·   Timing for Funding and Staying Funded

Part 7. Funding

This part covers several aspects of funding, which include how we make funding decisions, what to expect when getting a grant, how to manage your award, and how you can increase your chances of staying funded and avoid a break in funding.

As part of staying funded, we give you information and advice about preparing a renewal application.

Here you can also read about how NIH calculates percentiles for R01 applications and how we set paylines. If your application misses the payline, go to Part 6. If Not Funded.

Note: foreign grantees and investigators should use our Grants Policy and Management Training for Foreign Investigators for information on negotiating and managing their grants.
