Any individual(s) with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research as the Program Director(s)/Principal Investigator(s) (PD(s)/PI(s)) is invited to work with his/her organization to develop an application for support. Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for NIH support.
NHLBI R35 Awardees may apply to the Catalyze Program: However, the PI must document any overlap in the Just-In-Time submitted for the Catalyze application (per standard NIH rules) and explain how potential overlap due to the nature of the R35 will be mitigated. Before applying, investigators should consider whether the proposed research could be accomplished under the R35 award. It is recommended that R35 awardees contact their Program Director or the R35 group to discuss their plans.
