Opportunity Information: Apply for PA 17 326
The Administrative Supplements for the U.S.-Japan Brain Research Cooperative Program (BRCP) - U.S. Entity (Admin Supplement) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PA 17-326) is an NIH administrative supplement program designed to strengthen and extend existing NIH-funded research projects through cooperative activity connected to the long-running U.S.-Japan BRCP. Rather than funding brand-new standalone grants, this mechanism provides additional, targeted funds to projects that already have active support from participating NIH Institutes and Centers. In practice, it is meant to add incremental scope or capacity to an ongoing award when that added work supports the goals of the U.S. side of the U.S.-Japan brain research collaboration.
Because it is an administrative supplement, eligibility is tied closely to having an existing, eligible parent award. Applicants generally need to be organizations that currently hold NIH funding from one of the participating Institutes or Centers and can justify how the supplement activities build on the active project period and scientific aims of the parent grant. The program sits within NIH's broader health and biomedical research mission (with activity areas spanning education, environment, and health), and it is associated with multiple CFDA numbers (93.113, 93.121, 93.173, 93.213, 93.242, 93.279, 93.286, 93.350, 93.853, 93.866), reflecting the cross-institute nature of NIH participation.
A wide range of U.S. organizations can be eligible to apply, consistent with common NIH eligibility categories, including state, county, city, and 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; tribal organizations that are not federally recognized; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (when not applying as an institution of higher education); and for-profit entities other than small businesses as well as small businesses. The announcement also explicitly highlights additional eligible applicant types such as Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions; Asian American, Native American, and Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs); Hispanic-serving Institutions; Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs); faith-based or community-based organizations; eligible agencies of the federal government; regional organizations; and U.S. territories or possessions. This broad eligibility list matters mainly in the context of who can hold the underlying NIH award and request a supplement aligned with BRCP goals.
Foreign participation is restricted in a very specific way. Even though the text mentions "Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations)" in an eligibility list, the opportunity explicitly states that non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities or foreign institutions are not eligible to apply. It also makes clear that non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply, and foreign components (as defined in the NIH Grants Policy Statement) are not allowed. In other words, the applicant organization and the supported component must be U.S.-based, and the supplement cannot be structured around an ineligible foreign component under NIH policy for this notice.
Administrative details provided in the source indicate the sponsoring agency is the National Institutes of Health, the funding instrument type is a grant, and the opportunity is categorized as discretionary. The original closing date listed is September 18, 2019, and the posting (creation) date is July 18, 2017. The source excerpt does not specify an award ceiling or the expected number of awards, which often means those figures can vary depending on institute participation, available year-to-year funds, and the size and justification of supplement requests tied to active parent grants.
Overall, the key point is that this is a supplement pathway for current NIH awardees to add U.S.-based work that advances the U.S. entity's participation in the U.S.-Japan Brain Research Cooperative Program, with broad domestic organizational eligibility but clear prohibitions on foreign entities, foreign institutions, and foreign components.Apply for PA 17 326
