Opportunity Information: Apply for IR ORI 19 001

The grant opportunity titled "Announcement of the Availability of Funds for Research on Research Integrity" (Funding Opportunity Number IR ORI 19 001) is a discretionary federal grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development funding activity category (CFDA 93.085) and was created on March 6, 2019, with an original application closing date of May 8, 2019.

The core goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to encourage and support innovative research that improves understanding of research integrity and helps prevent research misconduct. In this context, "research integrity" is defined in a practical, standards-based way: using honest and verifiable methods when proposing, conducting, and evaluating research, and when reporting results. The definition also emphasizes compliance with relevant rules, regulations, guidelines, and the professional norms or codes of conduct commonly accepted in research communities. In other words, the program is aimed at projects that can strengthen the reliability and trustworthiness of the research enterprise by studying why integrity succeeds or fails and by developing or testing approaches that reduce the risk of misconduct.

The funding mechanism is a grant, with an award ceiling of $150,000 per award. The announcement anticipates making about nine awards, suggesting a modestly sized, competitive program intended to fund multiple distinct projects rather than a single large initiative. Eligible applicants are listed broadly as "Others," with eligibility details referenced as being clarified in an additional eligibility section of the full announcement text. This typically signals that eligibility may extend beyond standard categories (such as only universities) and may include a wider range of organizations or entities depending on the full FOA language.

Overall, this opportunity is designed for applicants proposing research-driven strategies, models, or evidence-building efforts that can measurably advance how institutions and researchers promote integrity and deter misconduct, with funding sized to support targeted, innovative studies rather than large multi-year centers or extensive infrastructure builds.
