Common Fund Programs: What are they and are you Eligible for Funding?

摘要

The NIH Common Fund (https://com-monfund.nih.gov) was established via the 2006 NIH Reform Act, but relatively few investigators know what it is, are aware of the science that it supports, or how they may benefit. Yet with an annual budget of over a half billion dollars, a mission that spans the gamut of NIH-supported science, and a mandate to address the most pressing problems and opportunities in biomedical research, the Common Fund is worth some attention.
