SEE ALSO: NOTICE TO GRANTEES: On September 2, 2011, Dr. Marjorie A. Tingle, director of the Shared Instrumentation Grant (SIG) program and the High-End Instrumentation (HEI) grant program, departed from federal service at NCRR. Dr. Abraham Levy is the acting program director, working closely with program officer Dr. Christina Liu. Their contact information is provided below. Any changes in assignment of management of your S10 grant or application will be reflected in your eRA Commons account. NCRR's High-End Instrumentation (HEI) grant program supports the purchase of a single major piece of research equipment that costs more than $750,000. Instruments in this price range include structural and functional imaging systems, macromolecular NMR spectrometers, high-resolution mass spectrometers, electron microscopes, and supercomputers.
Since its inception in 2002, the HEI Program has provided 140 awards to biomedical research institutions in 27 states, totaling $224,088,003. AwardsPurposeRapid technological development has led to the production of a new generation of instruments. These high-sensitivity, high-resolution instruments can accelerate the rate at which researchers can acquire, analyze, display, and understand data. To assist NIH-supported investigators to keep at the forefront of modern biology and medicine, in 2002 NCRR began the HEI grant program. HEI awards, which are for one year and are not renewable, provide support for up to a maximum of $2.0 million in direct costs for a single major piece of research equipment. The floor is set at $750,000. The HEI grant program complements the Shared Instrumentation Grant program. Eligibility Requirements
Awards are for one year, and matching funds are not required. However, NCRR expects institutions that compete for HEI awards to provide an appropriate level of support for associated infrastructure, such as building alterations or renovations, technical personnel, and post-award service contracts for instrument maintenance and operation. How to ApplyThe HEI program is only offered every other year. A Program Announcement for the HEI program is published in a June issue of the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts (http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/guide/index.html Because the HEI program interfaces with other NCRR and NIH grant programs, potential applicants are strongly encouraged to contact the HEI program director before submitting a proposal.
