NIAID AWARD POLICY - COMPETING RENEWAL R01 GRANTS NIH Guide, Volume 26, Number 35, October 17, 1997 National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Based on recommendations of its National Advisory Council, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is announcing a revised award policy for competitive renewal investigator-initiated research project (R01) grants. For the past three years, NIAID has limited the increase in direct costs awarded to 10 percent over the last noncompeting year of the grant (see NIAID AWARD AND APPLICATION POLICIES, NIH GUIDE, Volume 23, Number 40, November 18, 1994). After assessing the effects of that policy and the budget outlook of the Institute, NIAID is revising that policy. Beginning with awards for fiscal year 1998, the direct costs awarded in the first year to a research project grant (R01) resulting from a competing renewal application will be limited to no more than a 20 percent increase over the direct costs awarded in the last non-competing year of that grant.
