Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 19 225
The Transition to Independent Environmental Health Research (TIEHR) Career Award is an NIH-funded, three-year K01 career development grant designed as a bridge for newly independent faculty who are building a long-term research program in environmental health sciences. It targets investigators who are still early in their independent careers, specifically those within the first three years of their first independent faculty appointment, and it is meant to help them stabilize and accelerate their transition from “new faculty member with a promising direction” to “independent investigator with a competitive, externally funded research program.” A key feature of this particular announcement is that it is a K01 mechanism that requires independent basic experimental studies with humans, meaning the supported work is expected to include human-based experimental research in line with NIH policy and expectations for that study type.
The core purpose of the program is to provide protected support at a moment when many new faculty are juggling heavy teaching, service, and lab start-up demands while also trying to generate the preliminary data and publication record needed for larger research grants. The award supplies two practical kinds of support during this window: salary support to protect the investigator’s time for research and career development activities, and pilot funding that can be used to advance early-stage studies, strengthen methods, and produce the kinds of results that make subsequent applications for environmental health research funding more competitive. The intended outcome is that by the end of the three-year project period, the scholar is well positioned to compete successfully for additional, larger-scale research funding in the environmental health sciences.
Eligibility for applicant organizations is broad within the U.S. higher education and nonprofit landscape. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and nonprofits that do not hold 501(c)(3) status). The announcement also explicitly highlights eligibility for a range of institutions that serve populations historically underrepresented in biomedical and environmental health research, including Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs). At the same time, the opportunity is not open to non-U.S. (foreign) institutions as applicant organizations, and non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply. However, foreign components are allowed as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement, which generally means that specific, well-justified elements of the work may be conducted outside the U.S. under NIH rules, even though the applicant organization itself must be U.S.-based.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the National Institutes of Health, categorized under environment and health, and associated with CFDA number 93.113. The funding opportunity is titled “Transition to Independent Environmental Health Research (TIEHR) Career Award (K01 Independent Basic Experimental Studies with Humans Required)” and is listed under Funding Opportunity Number PAR-19-225. The opportunity record indicates an original closing date of March 15, 2021, and it was created on March 19, 2019. While the provided source information does not specify an award ceiling or expected number of awards, the overall structure is clearly framed as a three-year career development “bridge scholar” program intended to strengthen newly independent environmental health researchers through a combination of time protection and pilot project support, ultimately enabling them to secure subsequent research funding and establish a durable independent research trajectory.Apply for PAR 19 225
