NHGRI Guidelines for Grantees Requesting Administrative Supplements
Background
An administrative supplement is an increment in funding to support research that is within the original scope of an active NIH research grant (parent grant). Program Directors/Principal Investigators (PDs/PIs) holding NIH research grants may request supplemental funds for two purposes:
- To provide funding to meet unanticipated costs not included in the previous competitive or non- competitive application, or
- To provide funding for special populations to enter or re-enter biomedical research.
Check the Funding Opportunities page for the most recent funding opportunities announcement for Administrative Supplements.
