What is an R01 Grant?
The Research Project Grant (R01) is the original and historically oldest grant mechanism used by the National Institute of Health (NIH). It provides support for health-related research and development aligned with the NIH’s mission. R01 grants can either be investigator-initiated or through a Request for Applications. When applying for an investigator-initiated R01, there are no specific program requirements, but the proposed research plan must align with the program interests of one or more NIH Institutes and Centers.
In summary, and R01 grant supports a specific project performed by named investigators, focusing on their expertise and interests within the NIH’s mission. If you’d like more details, the Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools (RePORT) website offers information on funded R01s, average award amounts, and grant characteristics.
