Purpose
To add funding to existing grants for different purposes.
Procedure
NIAID funds the following types of supplements:
- Administrative supplements—monies added to a grant for a bona fide need without peer review to pay for items within the scope of an award, but unforeseen when a grant application was submitted. NIAID awards supplements under strictly defined circumstances. Principal investigators should talk to their program officer before submitting their request. Submit requests to NIAID program and grants management staff. For more information, check the Administrative Supplements to Grants and Cooperative Agreements SOP.
- Revisions (competing supplements)—monies added to a grant for a significant expansion of an existing project's scope. The application must be peer reviewed and is submitted directly to the Center for Scientific Review. For details, check the Revision of a Grant SOP.
