This NICHD Small Research Grant (R03) program supports basic experimental studies involving human participants (BESH), which are considered clinical trials under NIH definitions but also meet basic research criteria. This grant is specifically for investigations that prospectively assign human participants to different conditions, experimentally manipulate independent variables, and assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes. The primary purpose is to understand fundamental aspects of biological or behavioral phenomena without immediate application towards specific processes or products. Researchers interested in foundational human-centric studies aligned with the NICHD mission should consider this opportunity to advance basic scientific knowledge.
