Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 16 360
The Transition to Independent Environmental Health Research (TIEHR) Career Transition Award (K01) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) career development grant designed as a three-year "bridge" program for newly independent faculty who are committed to building long-term research careers in environmental health sciences. The overall purpose of the award is to help early-stage, newly independent investigators strengthen their research trajectory, expand their scientific skills and productivity, and position themselves to compete successfully for independent research funding by the end of the award period. In practical terms, the program supports a focused career development plan paired with an environmental health research effort, with the expectation that recipients will use the protected time and structured support to generate fundable ideas, publish results, build collaborations, and demonstrate clear readiness to secure subsequent research awards in the environmental health sciences.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary grant mechanism under Funding Opportunity Number PAR 16-360 and is categorized under the Environment and Health funding activity area (CFDA 93.113). The eligible applicant organizations include a range of U.S.-based institutions and nonprofits, such as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education where specified), and other eligible organizations consistent with NIH policy and the specific Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). The announcement also highlights inclusion of institution types that often serve underrepresented communities, including Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs). This signals that applications from these settings are explicitly welcomed as part of the broader eligible applicant pool, subject to the FOA's detailed requirements.
Foreign eligibility is limited. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions) are not eligible to apply as the applicant organization, and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are also not eligible to apply. At the same time, the announcement notes that "foreign components" may be allowed as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement, meaning a U.S. applicant organization may be able to include certain defined international elements in the project when justified and permitted under NIH rules, even though a foreign institution cannot serve as the primary applicant. Applicants are directed to consult the FOA for the full eligibility details and definitions, since NIH policy can hinge on specifics such as how a component is structured and what activities occur outside the U.S.
Key administrative details included in the source information are the original posting timeframe and close date. The opportunity was created on 2016-07-07, and an original closing date is listed as 2018-01-24. The award ceiling and expected number of awards are not specified in the provided data, which typically means those specifics either vary by institute budget and fiscal year or are described elsewhere in the FOA rather than in the summary record. Overall, this K01 is best understood as a targeted, time-limited career development award for faculty who have recently transitioned into independence and need structured support to solidify their environmental health research program and become competitive for subsequent independent NIH or other external research funding.Apply for PAR 16 360
