Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA DA 23 027
The NIH funding opportunity "Workshops on Computational and Analytical Research Methods (R25 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-DA-23-027) supports education-focused grant applications under the NIH R25 mechanism. Its core goal is to spread modern analytical and computational research methods and promote best practices by offering structured educational activities that include hands-on research experience. In practical terms, the program is meant to help researchers and trainees learn, apply, and become more confident using computational and analytical methodologies through workshop-style training and related educational formats, rather than supporting clinical trials.
This opportunity falls under a discretionary grant program in the Education and Health activity area (CFDA 93.279) and is administered by the National Institutes of Health. The emphasis on "Clinical Trial Not Allowed" means proposed projects must not include clinical trials as defined by NIH policy, keeping the focus on training and methods dissemination instead of testing interventions in human subjects via a clinical trial framework.
A wide range of organizations can apply. Eligible applicants include various levels of government (state, county, city/township, and special districts), independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The eligibility list also covers public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and both nonprofit organizations (with or without 501(c)(3) status) as well as for-profit organizations (other than small businesses). Small businesses are also eligible, along with other organizations that meet NIH eligibility rules.
The announcement also highlights additional applicant types that are explicitly welcomed, reflecting an interest in reaching diverse institutions and communities. These include Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISI), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, tribal governments that are not federally recognized, and U.S. territories or possessions. This broad eligibility signals that NIH is open to workshop and training proposals led by many kinds of institutions, including those that serve underrepresented or historically marginalized populations.
At the same time, there are clear limits related to foreign participation. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions) are not eligible to apply as the main applicant organization. In addition, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply. However, "foreign components" are allowed if they meet the definition in the NIH Grants Policy Statement, meaning a U.S.-based applicant can include certain foreign elements in the project when permitted under NIH policy, even though the primary applicant itself must be eligible and domestic.
