Description

The Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) invites grant applications from core facilities, resource centers, animal vivaria, or individual investigators of other shared resources to study the roles of critical environmental extrinsic factors in animal model species research. The objective is to enhance the rigor and reproducibility of animal research by focusing on biological, behavioral, and treatment studies. The program supports acquisition or updating of modern equipment capable of measuring, monitoring, recording, and reporting multiple environmental, biological, or biobehavioral parameters simultaneously. The research must be broadly applicable to the scientific interests of two or more NIH Institutes or Centers and evaluate biological processes impacting multiple organ systems.
