Opportunity Information: Apply for PA 18 770
The funding opportunity titled "Collaborative Activities to Expedite Environmental Health Science Research, Translation, and Community Engagement Across EHS Core Centers (Admin Supp - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)" is an NIH administrative supplement program run under the Department of Health and Human Services through the National Institutes of Health. It is designed specifically to strengthen collaboration among existing Environmental Health Sciences (EHS) Core Centers that already hold active P30 awards. Rather than creating brand-new centers or launching standalone projects, this mechanism adds targeted, short-term support to help funded centers work together more effectively on timely environmental health questions, increase the pace of translating research into real-world use, and deepen community engagement efforts that connect science to the people most affected by environmental exposures.
At its core, this supplement is about cross-center interaction and responsiveness. The program aims to help EHS Core Centers coordinate around emerging environmental health issues, share expertise and resources across institutions, and build joint activities that move discoveries beyond the lab. That can include efforts that accelerate environmental health science research, improve translation of findings into public health practice or policy-relevant knowledge, and expand meaningful engagement with communities. The emphasis on collaboration suggests the NIH wants centers to operate as a network, reducing duplication and leveraging specialized capabilities at different sites to address complex or urgent environmental health challenges.
The award is structured as a discretionary grant with an administrative supplement format, meaning it is tied to an existing parent P30 center grant and is not an independent, open-ended research award. Clinical trials are not allowed under this opportunity, which signals that the funded work should remain within non-clinical-trial activities such as coordination, pilot collaborative efforts that do not meet the definition of a clinical trial, shared translation initiatives, community-engaged programming, or other cross-center activities that advance the overall mission of the EHS Core Centers. The assistance is capped at an award ceiling of $100,000, and the NIH anticipated making about 6 awards under this announcement, indicating a relatively small, targeted pool of supplements intended to spark high-value collaboration rather than fund large research programs.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that already have awarded P30 Environmental Health Sciences Core Centers, so the applicant base is inherently restricted to existing center awardees. The eligible applicant types listed include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and other organizations as described in the additional eligibility information of the full announcement, but in practical terms the administrative supplement nature means an institution must already be the recipient of the relevant P30 center award to apply. The activity falls under environment and health and is associated with CFDA number 93.113, which is commonly used for NIEHS-related environmental health sciences support.
From a timing standpoint, the opportunity was created on May 8, 2018, with an original closing date of June 7, 2018. That short window is typical of administrative supplements, where the goal is often to quickly resource a specific, time-sensitive need or to catalyze collaboration within an existing, mature program infrastructure. Overall, this opportunity can be viewed as a modest but strategic funding lever: it helps established environmental health centers coordinate, share approaches, and jointly push research translation and community connection forward, especially when emerging issues call for quicker, more unified action across the national EHS Core Center network.Apply for PA 18 770
