What it does

Tribal governments that are not federally recognized, and are eligible under this listing, can apply for NIH Common Fund money (NIH is the National Institutes of Health; the Common Fund is its cross-institute funding pool) for R3PEATS (Rigor, Replicability, & Reproducibility to Promote Excellence, Accuracy, & Translation in Science) projects. The funding opportunity has no money reserved for tribes (a ), so tribal applicants compete with all other eligible applicants. The forecast gives an estimated posting date of 2027-07-01 and an estimated due date of 2027-10-01.
