AI Contract Overview
The NIOSH Small Research Grant Program (R03) is designed to advance occupational safety and health by supporting research that identifies risks and conditions leading to work-related diseases and injuries, explores strategies to reduce those risks, and translates scientific discoveries into practical prevention tools and practices. This grant mechanism is intended for projects that can be completed with limited resources, such as pilot studies, feasibility assessments, secondary data analysis, or the development of new research methodologies, making it accessible for early-stage or resource-constrained investigators. Applicants are required to clearly define the occupational health problem they aim to address and explicitly connect their proposed activities to measurable outputs that will reduce the burden of work-related illness and injury, both during the grant period and in the long term. Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under the Department of Health and Human Services, the program is open to researchers seeking to generate actionable insights that can inform workplace safety practices. The solicitation is currently forecasted for a July 2026 posting, with no set-aside type or NAICS code specified. The point of contact for inquiries is Jessica M.K. Streit, PhD, CHES, Scientific Program Official, reachable via email at jstreit@cdc.gov or phone at 513-533-8107. While the place of performance and organization type are not defined, the grant supports research activities that must be grounded in real-world occupational health challenges and must demonstrate potential for tangible impact beyond the academic setting.
