Streamlined Way to Learn About NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices
Explore our new NIH Institute, Center, and Office (ICO) Profiles, a central resource to simplify how applicants and researchers learn about NIH grant and funding information, instead of needing to visit multiple different ICO websites. The Consolidation of NIH Grants and Funding Information also aligns with other ongoing efforts to evolve NIH’s wider public web presence.
We encourage you to check the ICO profiles regularly for updates as the ICOs provide new information for the research community’s awareness and transparency into their funding processes.
Visit the new profiles to learn about each ICO’s:
- Mission statement
- Interest areas
- Highlighted Topics
- Funding opportunities
- NIH Guide notices
- Funding Policies and Considerations
- Funding by category (e.g., for Administrative Supplements, Small Business, and more categories in the future)
Expect new and updated information over time. For example, ICOs are currently establishing their fiscal year 2026 Funding Policies and Considerations.
