| Due to shifts in the federal agency funding landscape, do not sign any certifications or acknowledgments, complete any surveys, or respond regarding grant compliance, change in abstract or scope of work, or project activities. Instead, forward such communications to Jeff Warner, Senior Director, Sponsored Projects Administration. Authorized Organizational Representatives (AORs) in the Office of Research will handle these matters. If you have trouble getting in touch with your Sponsored Programs offices/Contracts and Grants office, contact Nancy Lewis, Associate Vice Chancellor for Research Administration. Learn more about the impact of federal executive orders and directives on federal grants and contracts.

| Updates to Finding NIH Funding Opportunities and Information |
| NIH has several efforts underway that impact how potential applicants will learn about scientific topics of specific interest to NIH and find grant and cooperative agreement funding opportunities in FY2026. These efforts are part of a wider strategy across NIH to simplify and streamline the application and funding process. Some major updates include:
- Grants.gov will be the single official source for NIH and Cooperative Agreement Funding Opportunities. NIH will no longer post NOFOs in the NIH Guide (NOT-OD-25-143). However, there is a new Explore NIH Grant Opportunities tool for you to identify NIH funding opportunities posted on Grants.gov.
- Highlighted Topics. The Highlighted Topics page is a new centralized resource to inform the research community about areas of science of particular interest to NIH. These are NOT formal funding opportunities.
- Overall Reduction in Number of NIH NOFOs. There are plans to limit the number of highly specific NOFOs and increase NIH’s reliance on parent announcements and other broad funding opportunities in 2026.
- Consolidation of NIH Grants and Funding Information. In 2026, there is an effort to expand the NIH Grants & Funding site to include the funding-related information currently distributed across our institute, center, and office (ICO) websites.
Learn more about these updates and more on the NIH Grants & Funding page. | |
