Plan for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research

The current FOA indicates that This section not required for this FOA for the Plan for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research. However, applicants will receive an error message, if there is no PDF attachment for the Plan for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research in the PHS398 Research Training Program Plan section of the 424 application package. The error message is The Plan for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research attachment is required on the PHS 398 Research Training Program Plan. (19.5.1).

An application with an error message will not be accepted by NIH until the error is corrected.

To avoid this situation, applicants are directed to attach a PDF file that states Not applicable to this FOA for the Plan for Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research.

Change to Key Dates, Application Receipt Date:  To allow applicants adequate time to make these changes, the application receipt date for this FOA has been extended from July 24, 2012 to August 16, 2012. This extension applies to only the 2012 receipt date for this FOA.

The receipt dates for the two other FOAs under the Fogarty HIV Research Training Program, PAR-12-069 Training Programs for Critical HIV Research Infrastructure for Low- and Middle-Income Country Institutions (G11) and PAR-12-068 Fogarty HIV Research Training Program for Low- and Middle-Income Country Institutions (D43) remain unchanged.
