NIAMS FY 2012 Operating Level: $535,633,000

The NIAMS is operating under the FY 2012 Consolidated Appropriations Act (P.L. 112-74). The current funding plan for research and training grants is cited below:

Research Project Grants (RPGs)

Noncompeting RPGs:

In accordance with current NIH FY 2012 policy following the enactment of the Consolidated Appropriations Act (P.L. 112-74), most noncompeting awards will reflect a reduction from the amount recommended on the previous Notice of Grant Award. For noncompeting non-modular awards, this reduction will be approximately 2 percent, which will be applied to all remaining years of the grant. For noncompeting modular awards, there will be no reduction in the FY 2012 and future years. To review the NIH fiscal policy for grant awards in FY 2012, please see the NIH Fiscal Policy for Grant Awards – FY 2012.

Competing RPGs:

  • The payline for competing R01 applications will be through the percentile of 12.0.
  • The payline for competing R01 applications from new investigators will be through the percentile of 15.0.
  • The payline for competing R21 applications will be through the percentile of 12.0

Final decisions are made by the Director, NIAMS, following staff discussion.
