Fogarty International Center (FIC) Grants

The Fogarty International Center administers NIH programs that support professional development opportunities or collaborative international research. NIDA currently participates in a number of Fogarty programs:

Research Training Grants

• Chronic, Non-Communicable Diseases and Disorders Across the Lifespan (NCD-LIFESPAN) awards support collaborative research training between institutions in the United States and low- and middle-income (LAMI) countries, with the ultimate goal of training in-country experts qualified to implement evidence-based interventions relevant to LAMI countries.
• Fogarty HIV Research Training Programs support research capacity-building and are open to applications from institutions in the United States (D43, PAR-12-068) and low- or middle-income countries (D71, PAR-12-070).

Research Grants

• The Global Research Initiative Program for New Foreign Investigators (GRIP) supports the return of NIH-trained foreign investigators to their home countries as part of a broader program to enhance the scientific research infrastructure in developing countries, and to stimulate research of high-priority global health-related issues. Former NIDA INVEST Fellows are eligible to compete for GRIP awards.
• Brain Disorders in the Developing World (BRAIN) supports collaborative research and capacity-building projects on brain disorders in developing countries.
• The Fogarty International Research Collaboration Awards (FIRCA) support collaborative research on behavioral and social sciences (FIRCA-BSS) or basic biomedical sciences (FIRCA-BB) between scientists supported by NIDA and investigators in developing and transitional countries.
