Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 23 151
The Emergency Medicine Research Career Development Program in the Neurological Sciences (EMRCDP-NS) is an NIH-funded K12 institutional career development grant (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-23-151) designed to build a national pipeline of emergency medicine (EM) physician-scientists focused on neurological disorders. The core idea is to support a structured, mentored research career development program for junior EM faculty, helping them develop the skills, mentorship, and protected time needed to become productive, independent investigators. The program is national in scope in the sense that it is intended to support and coordinate mentored development for early-career EM faculty at institutions across the United States that have the capacity and commitment to support emergency medicine research careers.
This FOA is specifically aimed at expanding the number of emergency medicine investigators who conduct research in neurological sciences, leveraging the unique vantage point of emergency clinicians. Emergency departments are often the front door for acute neurologic presentations, so EM physicians routinely encounter time-sensitive, high-impact conditions such as stroke, seizures, traumatic brain injury, altered mental status, acute headache syndromes, neuroinfectious or inflammatory conditions, and other neurologic emergencies. The program is meant to harness that clinical experience and translate it into rigorous research training and mentored projects that can improve diagnosis, treatment, systems of care, and outcomes for patients with neurological disorders, particularly in the acute and early phases of illness where emergency medicine plays an outsized role.
As a K12 mechanism, the application is submitted by an institution rather than by an individual scholar, with the institution proposing a coherent training and mentoring program that will appoint and support multiple junior faculty "scholars" over time. The emphasis is on mentored career development: building research skills, establishing a record of productivity, and positioning scholars to compete successfully for subsequent independent research funding. The "No Independent Clinical Trial Allowed" designation means the program and its supported scholars cannot propose an independent clinical trial as the primary activity. In practice, this typically allows for research experiences and projects that may involve clinical research methods but do not include leading an independent clinical trial, aligning the mechanism with training and career development rather than trial leadership.
Eligible applicant organizations include U.S. public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education, as well as certain other eligible organizations. The announcement explicitly includes several categories of institutions as other eligible applicants, 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). At the same time, the FOA makes clear that non-U.S. entities are not eligible to apply: foreign institutions cannot apply, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components as defined by NIH policy are not allowed. In short, the program is intended to be fully U.S.-based without foreign components.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the National Institutes of Health under the education and health activity category. It is associated with CFDA numbers 93.279, 93.853, and 93.866, reflecting the NIH program areas connected to neurological and related research. The opportunity was created on May 16, 2023, with an original closing date of August 9, 2023. The provided source fields do not list an award ceiling or the expected number of awards, so those details would need to be confirmed in the full FOA text or NIH notices if a current or future reissue is being considered.
Overall, the EMRCDP-NS K12 opportunity is best understood as an institutional investment in developing the next generation of emergency medicine neurologic researchers. It supports a mentored, career-development-centered program that strengthens research capacity in emergency care settings for neurologic disorders, with the intent that scholars emerge with the training, mentorship, and early research accomplishments needed to transition toward independent, externally funded research careers.Apply for PAR 23 151
