About this opportunity

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) encourages applications for NIGMS Biomedical Technology Optimization and Dissemination (BTOD) Centers to support late-stage technology optimization and sustainable dissemination of the technologies to the wider biomedical research community. A BTOD Center should be at the leading edge of its field with respect to both technology optimization and engagement with relevant research communities.BTOD projects must address biomedical research areas within the NIGMS mission. Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to consult with NIGMS staff about adherence of their proposed research strategy to the Institute's goals and mission and its responsiveness to this NOFO.

Portfolio context — this listing covers more than this opportunity

This opportunity is funded under Assistance Listing 93.859 (“Biomedical Research and Research Training”), a broad federal program that made about 1313 new awards per year over the last five fiscal years (median award $562k). Those figures describe that whole portfolio — not this specific solicitation, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's track record.

Applicant counts per solicitation are not published by any federal agency — no one can honestly sell you that number. NIH publishes success rates by institute and activity code — source.
