The PEI is a comprehensive plan to increase the capacity of HBCUs
as they pursue funding opportunities at the NIH. The PEI provides a
platform to increase transparency between HBCUs and the NIH by
promoting outreach events and training opportunities and providing
technical assistance. Currently, there are six HBCU participants and
each selected a minimum of one small business teaming partner to pursue
NIH funding opportunities with.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
