The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Applicant Assistance Program (AAP) is designed to assist small businesses who have never received NIH SBIR/STTR funding in preparing and submitting a Small Business Innovation Research or Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) application to:
- The National Cancer Institute (NCI SBIR)
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA SBIR)
- The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI SBIR)
- The National Institute of Neurological Disease and Stroke (NINDS SBIR)
Please note that this service is NOT available to companies who have a current SBIR/STTR application under review (for the January 6, 2020 due date) with the same scope of work or to support preparation of a Fast Track or Phase II application.
The goal of this program is to increase the number of applications submitted by underrepresented small businesses and to increase the number of these applications that are free of errors or omissions and are deemed complete, compliant and responsive to the review criteria.
