Take note if you conduct or plan COVID-19-related vaccine or treatment clinical trials and clinical studies supported by NIAID’s fiscal year 2020 emergency pandemic appropriations.
NIH’s February 1, 2021 Guide notice makes a small correction to the funding opportunity announcement (FOA) Limited Competition Emergency Awards: Shared Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Resources for COVID-19 Related Vaccine and Treatment Clinical Trials and Clinical Studies (S10, Clinical Trial Not Allowed). The PPE usage reports described in the FOA are semi-annual, not quarterly as it originally stated.
If you are applying to the FOA, we advise you to pay close attention to its strict eligibility requirements. For details, check the FOA text and the following resources:
- November 18, 2020 article “Policy Update—PPE an Allowable Direct Cost in Certain Situations”
