Possible uses and use restrictions...
The research project grant is awarded to an eligible institution on behalf of a principal investigator to support a discrete project or group of related projects representing the investigator's area of interest and competence. Funds are used for reasonable costs of the research activity, as well as for salaries, equipment, supplies, travel, and other related expenses. National Research Service Awards are made directly to individuals for postdoctoral research training. In addition, grants are made to institutions to enable them to make National Research Service Awards to individuals selected by them for predoctoral or postdoctoral training. Responsibilities of grantees and restrictions on use of funds are set forth in the Public Health Service policy statement on grants for research projects, which is available on request from the Division of Extramural Outreach and Information Resources, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892. SBIR Phase I grants (of approximately 6 months' duration) are to establish the scientific and technical merit and feasibility of a proposed research effort that may lead to a commercial product or process. Phase II grants are for the continuation of research initiated in Phase I that is likely to result in commercial products or processes. Only Phase I awardees are eligible to receive Phase II support. STTR Phase I grants (normally of 1 year's duration) are to determine the scientific, technical, and commercial merit and feasibility of the proposed cooperative effort that has potential for commercial application. Phase II funding is based on the results of research initiated in Phase I.
