Grant applications and project proposals must fall within the missions of the scientific branches of NICHD's Division of Extramural Research or its National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research. Potential applicants are strongly encouraged to visit these pages for recent scientific advances and emerging public health topics. If you have questions about projects within a specific research area, you may find an NICHD program officer at https://www.nichd.nih.gov/grants-contracts/research-areas/priorities or contact: NICHD Referral Office Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Email: [email protected]

National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) Scientific Program Contact: Samah Jafari, MD National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) Email: [email protected] Grants Management Contact: Samantha Tempchin National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) [email protected]	NIDCD accepts low-risk clinical trial applications submitted under PA-20-183 that address communication disorders in the NIDCD’s scientific mission areas of hearing, balance, taste, smell, voice, speech and language, with the goal of producing evidence necessary to advance scientific knowledge and inform the development of intervention(s) for subsequent clinical trials. The NIDCD defines a low-risk clinical trial as a trial meeting ALL the following criteria: • Typically does not require an Investigational New Drug (IND) or Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the FDA. This includes clinical trials involving utilization of a licensed product/device for an approved dose, population, and indication. Or it can be a study that has an IND or IDE but is otherwise determined to be a low-risk trial • The Potential risk of the intervention to the subjects is low. For example, interventions encountered in routine medical care or procedures, or behavioral interventions • Intends to gather scientific data/evidence to inform subsequent studies but is not aimed or sufficiently powered to directly change health policy or standard of care, and is not an NIH defined Phase III Clinical Trial • Application budgets are not limited but are generally expected to be less than $500,000 in direct costs in any year. Applicants requesting $500,000 or more must submit a request to NIDCD prior to submitting an application. Low risk research categorized as Basic Science Experimental Studies involving Humans (BESH), referred to in NOT-OD-18-212, are acceptable under this opportunity. Applications proposing mechanistic studies with human subjects may alternatively be submitted under the Research Project Grant (Parent R01 Basic Experimental Studies with Humans Required) PA-20-184. For an application that states that the study poses a nonsignificant risk to participants, NIDCD may request verification from the applicant including the risk determination documentation from the FDA prior to award. This will be outlined in the Notice of Award Terms and Conditions when applicable. High-risk clinical trials are referred to the companion U01 funding opportunity, PAR-24-050 NIDCD Cooperative Agreement for Clinical Trials in Communication Disorders. Applicants are encouraged to consult NIDCD staff at least 10 weeks prior to the application due date to confirm the appropriateness of the proposed project for the funding opportunity.
