How many National Institutes of Health grants are open right now?
UseGrants is tracking 654 open National Institutes of Health opportunities. None of the ones listed here publish a closing date — they are rolling or open-until-filled. The list is rebuilt from public records daily, so an opportunity drops off it the day its deadline passes.
Who can apply for National Institutes of Health funding?
Eligibility is set per opportunity, not per agency — the same funder will run one program open to any nonprofit and another restricted to accredited universities. Across the National Institutes of Health opportunities listed here the recurring eligibility signals are researchers, schools & universities, narrow eligibility and small business. Every listing still states its own terms in plain English; confirm them on the funder's official notice before you apply.
