Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence: Development Phase (COBRE-D)
HHS-NIH11 Forecasted PAR-26-027Description
The NIGMS Institutional Development Awards (IDeA) program supports biomedical research capacity building in states that have historically received low levels of NIH funding. The Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence: Development Phase (COBRE-D) program provides funding to enable institutions in IDeA states to increase their biomedical research capacity in broad scientific areas of strategic importance to them but for which they have limited existing infrastructure or expertise. COBRE-D is intended to support a long-term institutional vision focused on the recruitment and mentoring of early-career investigators by supplementing start-up packages for new hires, the establishment of research facilities, and enhancement of research administration support services. This program serves as an on-ramp for less-resourced institutions to the Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence: Expansion/Sustainability Phases (COBRE E/S) program.
