Opportunity Information: Apply for IR ORI 16 002
The Office of Research Integrity (ORI), within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, announced a discretionary grant opportunity to fund conferences and workshops focused on research integrity, aligned with the federal research misconduct and integrity framework in 42 C.F.R. Part 93. The purpose of the funding is to support convenings that bring together multidisciplinary participants to strengthen networks, build on existing evidence-based research, and encourage new, practical approaches to preventing research misconduct and promoting a culture of integrity in research settings. A central priority is that these events do more than share information; ORI is especially interested in conferences that generate concrete next steps such as extramural grant applications related to research on research integrity and peer-reviewed publications.
Funded conferences or workshops are expected to provide a structured forum for discussion and to produce tangible outcomes tied to one or more specific themes. These themes include responsible conduct of research (RCR) training; fostering environments that promote research integrity; preventing research misconduct; handling and managing research misconduct allegations; whistleblowing and related protections or processes; international issues in research integrity; and other topics clearly connected to research integrity and compliance with 42 C.F.R. Part 93. In practical terms, the event design should emphasize deliverables such as consensus statements, action plans, model policies, curricula or training resources, research agendas, collaborative networks, and clearly defined pathways toward publishable outputs and future fundable projects.
The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity area is health, listed under CFDA 93.085. The award ceiling is $50,000 per award, with an expected total of about five awards. The original application closing date for this opportunity was April 22, 2016, and the opportunity was created on January 14, 2016.
Eligibility is broad, covering many types of applicants that could credibly organize research integrity conferences. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; individuals; and other entities. Overall, the opportunity targets organizers who can convene relevant communities and produce high-value, field-advancing outcomes that improve integrity practices and strengthen compliance with the federal research integrity regulations.Apply for IR ORI 16 002
