NIH LOAN REPAYMENT PROGRAM

Established by Congress to counter economic disincentives for well qualified, newly trained investigators to embark on biomedical research careers.

Also envisioned as an incentive to attract investigators into specific areas of research.

NIH EXTRAMURAL LOAN REPAYMENT PROGRAMS

Five Loan Repayment Programs (LRP) have been established

NIAAA participates directly only in the first two:

Clinical Research LRP (Most IC’s) -- NIAAA

Pediatric Research LRP (Most IC’s) -- NIAAA

Clinical Research LRP for Individuals from Disadvantaged Backgrounds (NCMHD)

Health Disparities LRP (NCMHD)

Contraception and Infertility Research LRP (NICHD)

Clinical Research LRP

Loan Repayment Program for Clinical Researchers was authorized under the Clinical Research Enhancement Act (PL 106-505) “… to promote participation in clinical research by qualified health professionals.”

DEFINITION OF CLINICAL RESEARCH

Standard NIH Clinical research definition: “patient-oriented research that is conducted with human subjects..., or ...involving material of human origin for which an investigator or colleague directly interacts with human subjects...or epidemiologic or behavioral studies, outcomes research or health services research…”

Pediatric Research Loan Repayment Program

The Loan Repayment Program for Pediatric Research was established under the Children's Health Act (PL 106-310).

Pediatric Research is defined in the Act as research that is “directly related to diseases, disorders, and other conditions in children”.

COMMON FEATURES OF ALL LRPs

May repay up to $35,000 per year towards outstanding eligible educational debt.

In return, participants must sign a contract agreeing to conduct qualified research activities for a minimum of 2 years.

Applicants may apply for additional one-year renewal contracts.

A Debt must be greater than 20 percent of salary and compensation.

Amount of the actual repayment is determined on a sliding scale. For $35,000 per year, loan debt must be equal to or above $140,000.

Loan repayment benefits represent taxable income. Payments equal to 39 percent of total loan repayments will be credited directly to IRS account.

TO QUALIFY AN APPLICANT MUST HAVE GOVERNMENT OR NONPROFIT RESEARCH

FUNDING:

An applicant’s research must be funded by a domestic nonprofit or U.S. Government (federal, state, or local) entity

An NIH grant award is not requiredSalary support and/or research funding from

participant’s university department is acceptable if employer is nonprofit.

Applicant must be in a position to commit at least 50% of time to research in “qualifying” area

REVIEW

At each IC, a review panel composed of extramural scientists will review and rate the applications. NIAAA uses AA-3 Committee for this purpose.

Review criteria emphasize potential to

become a contributing scientist in the area of the program (e.g., clinical research, etc.)

Standard NIH scoring (100 – 500) is used.

Funds Available

The funding level for the LRP program is set each year by NIH on a formula basis related to the size of an Institute’s clinical research portfolio.

Extramural LRP funds can be expended for either the Clinical or Pediatric Programs.
