2021 (HEI) High-End Instrumentation Grant Program (S10 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

2021 (HEI) High-End Instrumentation Grant Program (S10 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

UA may submit more than one application. 

There is no restriction on the number of applications an institution can submit to the SIG and/or High-End Instrumentation (HEI) Programs each year, provided the applications request different types of equipment. To prevent duplication of applications, this opportunity is Institutionally Coordinated.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to continue the High-End Instrumentation (HEI) Grant Program administered by the Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP). The objective of the Program is to make available to institutions high-end cutting-edge research instruments that can only be justified on a shared-use basis and that are needed for NIH-supported projects in basic, translational, and clinical biomedical or biobehavioral research. The HEI program provides funds to purchase or upgrade a single item of expensive, leading-edge, specialized, commercially available instrument or an integrated instrumentation system. An integrated instrumentation system is one in which the components, when used in conjunction with one another, perform a function that no single component can provide. The components must be dedicated to the system and not used independently.Types of supported instruments include, but are not limited to: X-ray diffractometers, mass spectrometers, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers, DNA and protein sequencers, biosensors, electron and light microscopes, cell sorters, high throughput robotic screening systems, and biomedical imagers. Applications for standalone computer systems (supercomputers, computer clusters and data storage systems) will only be considered if the system is solely dedicated to biomedical research.
