Opportunity Information: Apply for PAR 24 265
The NIH Shared Instrumentation Grant (SIG) Program (PAR-24-265) is a discretionary grant opportunity designed to help groups of NIH-supported investigators obtain access to major research equipment by funding the purchase or upgrade of a single, expensive, specialized, commercially available instrument or an integrated instrumentation system. The core purpose is to strengthen shared research infrastructure by placing high-end instrumentation into a shared-use environment, where multiple federally funded scientists can rely on the same platform rather than duplicating costly equipment across separate labs. This specific announcement is marked "S10 Clinical Trial Not Allowed," meaning the proposed project must not include a clinical trial component under NIH definitions.
Funding under this program is intended specifically for instrumentation costs, with an award floor of $50,000 and a maximum NIH award of $750,000. While there is no stated maximum purchase price for the instrument itself, the federal contribution through this mechanism cannot exceed $750,000, so applicants should plan accordingly if the total system price is higher (for example, by identifying institutional funds or other allowable sources to cover the difference, if applicable under NIH rules). The program supports a broad range of advanced, high-cost instruments commonly used across biomedical and health-related research, including (but not limited to) light microscopes, biomedical imaging systems, mass spectrometers, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers, flow cytometers, DNA and protein sequencers, biosensors, and X-ray diffractometers. The emphasis is on equipment that is specialized and high-priced, where shared access materially improves the research capacity of a community of investigators.
Eligible applicant organizations include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (both those with and without 501(c)(3) status), as well as other organizations that meet NIH eligibility requirements. The opportunity explicitly recognizes a range of institution types among eligible applicants, including Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs). At the same time, the eligibility rules are clear that non-U.S. entities are not allowed to apply: non-domestic (non-U.S.) organizations are ineligible, non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are ineligible, and foreign components (as defined by the NIH Grants Policy Statement) are not permitted under this announcement.

The associated CFDA/assistance listing numbers include 93.242, 93.286, 93.351, 93.859, 93.866, 93.867.
