Funding Opportunity Full Description

Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project.

In all cases, applicants should propose a budget that is reasonable and appropriate for completion of the research project. Application budgets should only cover the work that will be performed by the PD/PI and his/her staff. The NIH will pay Blueprint MedTech contractors and consultants directly for their work; therefore, these expenses should not be included in the budget for this application.

It is recommended that applicants reach out to the NIH program staff listed for this funding opportunity to discuss IC-specific award budgets. https://neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov/neurotherapeutics/blueprint-medtech/blueprint-medtech-ics-and-contacts
