National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Scientific Program Contact: Grants Management Contact: | NHGRI will support the development of resources, approaches, and technologies that will accelerate GENOMIC research on the structure of genomes, the biology of genomes, and the biology of disease; that will advance the science of genomic medicine; and that will incorporate genomics to improve the effectiveness of healthcare. NHGRI will also support GENOMIC research in several cross-cutting areas, including the ethical, legal and societal implications of genomics and genetics research, bioinformatics, technology development, and research training and career development. In general, NHGRI supports studies that provide generalizable methods and knowledge. Applications for studies relevant only to a particular disease or organ system should be directed to the appropriate Institute or Center. NHGRI strongly encourages potential applicants to contact program staff in the early stages of developing your application. The contact information for the three scientific programs are: Division of Genome Science: https://www.genome.gov/27550609/division-of-genome-sciences-staff/ Division of Genomic Medicine: https://www.genome.gov/27550610/division-of-genomic-medicine-staff/ Division of Genomics and Society: https://www.genome.gov/27550080/division-of-genomics-and-society/ |
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Scientific Program Contact: | Due to budgetary constraints, the NHLBI is only accepting primary and secondary assignments on applications for the support of meetings directly related to heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders and conditions. All requests for permission to submit an application should include a listing of recent or upcoming meetings addressing the same or similar topics, if any, and the "value-added" by the proposed meeting. Typically, NHLBI provides nominal support for conferences between $5K and $10K.

National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) Grants Management Contact: | NIAMS is committed to enhancing diversity and promoting inclusion. Conference grant applications seeking NIAMS support must provide a diversity plan, in accordance with the Funding Opportunity requirements, for increasing the participation of individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those from underrepresented groups. NIAMS will also place priority on supporting opportunities for participation in professional development activities, as well as enhanced networking potential, for early stage researchers and individuals from underrepresented groups. Additional information on the NIAMS R13 Program can be found at https://www.niams.nih.gov/grants-funding/niams-r13-conference-grant. |

National Institutes of Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) Grants Management Contact: | |
National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) Scientific Program Contact: Grants Management Contact: | |
National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) Scientific Program Contact: | Conference Grants are awarded to institutions and organizations (not individuals) to provide partial support for meetings, conferences, and workshops to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate research information. The NIDDK is interested in conference grants proposing travel expense support for junior investigators and trainees and meet criteria to establishing programmatic relevance. Generally awarded funds are limited to such support. In addition, individuals from under-represented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for NIH support. Letters of intent (LOI) are due at least 6 weeks prior to the application receipt date. Applicants are strongly encouraged to consult with appropriate NIDDK program staff when considering an R13 application. Agreement to accept an application does not guarantee funding. |
National Institutes of General Medicine https://www.nigms.nih.gov/research-training/resources/support-for-scientific-meetings Grants Management Contact: | In general, NIGMS will only support meetings that fulfill all of the following characteristics: -are closely aligned with NIGMS’ central mission and interests, -are non-recurring, and -include participants who do not frequently interact in other venues |

Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) Scientific Program Contact: Grants Management Contact: | The Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) advances the NIH mission by supporting research infrastructure and research-related resource programs and by coordinating NIH’s science education efforts. ORIP’s high-priority thematic areas are: (1) developing models of human diseases; (2) accelerating research discoveries by providing access to state-of-the-art instrumentation; and (3) training and diversifying the biomedical workforce. For models-oriented conferences and meetings, proposals to be considered must be applicable to the research interests of two or more categorical NIH Institutes/Centers (ICs). Applications that relate strictly to a specific disease or category of research will not be accepted and should be proposed to the appropriate categorical IC of the NIH. Furthermore, applications proposing conferences or scientific meetings that are related predominantly to the interest of one IC and only peripherally to the interests of other ICs are not acceptable. For training-oriented conferences and meetings, applications with a primary focus on veterinarian-scientists as translational researchers will receive priority for consideration. These grants generally support only a portion of the entire cost of a conference or scientific meeting. Typically, ORIP provides nominal support for conferences between $5K and $10K. |
