The Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA) program and its Program

Guidelines were announced in the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts

Program Guidelines.



The entire application cannot exceed 20 pages.  This page limitation

DOES NOT INCLUDE BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES, the CHECKLIST PAGE, the

PERSONAL DATA SHEET, LETTERS OF COMMITMENT FROM CONSULTANTS, OR the
