the nature and behavior of living systems and the
application of that knowledge to enhance health,
lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability.”

Office of Research Infrastructure
Programs (ORIP)
• ORIP is not an NIH
Institute/Center
• Several programs formerly
housed in NCRR were
reassigned to the new office
within the OD
• Infrastructure can be physical,
intellectual, and human
• ORIP’s mission is to provide
resources to drive research
discoveries
• Research infrastructure
programs
• Research-related resource
programs
• NIH’s science education efforts

research by providing support for the early and
conceptual stages of project development

R21 – ORIP Considerations
• ORIP does not accept unsolicited R21 applications
• But other NIH Institutes and Centers do
• PA-13-145 Development of Animal Models and Related Biological
Materials for Research (R21)
• Develop, characterize or improve animal models for human
disease
• Improve diagnosis and control of diseases that might interfere
with animal use for biomedical research purposes
• Models to be considered must be applicable to the research
interests of > 2 categorical NIH Institutes/Centers
• Excluded are studies that modify specific genes or levels of gene
expression in animals with the purpose of understanding the
effect of the gene on phenotypes which are not directly related to
human diseases
R21 Topics of Interest

animals and preservation of
important disease models

requires that a small business
formally collaborate with a research
institution
• Primary employment is not
stipulated
