Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 24 295
The Emerging Global Leader Award (K43 Independent Clinical Trial Required) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PAR-24-295) that supports the career development of promising researchers based in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This notice reissues the existing K43 Emerging Global Leader Program specifically to bring it into alignment with NIH clinical trials policy, meaning it is intended for projects that include an independent clinical trial component and are structured to meet NIH requirements for clinical trial oversight and reporting.
A key feature of this opportunity is that applications must be submitted by non-U.S. institutions located in LMICs, as defined by the World Bank country income classifications (low-income, lower-middle-income, and upper-middle-income countries are included under that system). Eligible applicant organizations are academic, education, or research institutions based outside the United States. In practical terms, this program is designed to strengthen research leadership and capacity within LMIC institutions by supporting individuals positioned to become independent research leaders in their home settings.
There are important eligibility limits tied to Fogarty International Center (FIC) country eligibility rules. The FIC Country Eligibility Notice (NOT-TW-12-011) applies here and restricts participation from certain upper-middle-income countries that are also members of the G20 major economies. With the exception of Sub-Saharan African countries, FIC will not accept applications from, or applications involving the training of scientists from, upper-middle-income countries that are G20 members. Applicants are expected to verify country eligibility using FIC guidance, including the Fogarty country eligibility page, because eligibility is not determined solely by the World Bank income tier; the additional G20-related restriction can disqualify otherwise upper-middle-income countries.
This opportunity is strictly limited to foreign institutions: only non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities in LMICs can apply, and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to submit applications. In other words, an overseas branch or affiliate of a U.S. university or organization cannot serve as the applicant institution for this K43. The sponsoring agency is NIH, and the funding instrument is a grant. The opportunity is categorized under discretionary funding and spans NIH-related health, research training, and capacity-building areas reflected in the listed CFDA numbers (including 93.113, 93.172, 93.173, 93.233, 93.242, 93.279, 93.313, 93.398, 93.837, 93.838, 93.839, 93.840, 93.853, 93.866, and 93.989).
From an administrative timeline standpoint, the opportunity was created on 2024-10-15 and lists an original closing date of 2026-12-03. The posting does not specify an award ceiling or expected number of awards in the provided data, so applicants would need to consult the full announcement text for budget structure, project period limits, and other program-specific details.Apply for PAR 24 295
