Glucagon, GLP-1 and GIP are related peptides that target G-protein coupled receptors with effects on glucose and lipid homeostasis. Glucagon concentrations can be elevated in diabetes due to dysregulation of glucagon secretion, while the pancreatic beta-cell can be resistant to the insulinotropic effects of the incretins, both contributing to hyperglycemia.

Thinking Beyond NIH for Health-Related SBIR/STTR Funding
Print PDF
When considering federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) or Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) funding for health-related technology development, it is often helpful to apply a holistic and broad mindset to find an agency that will fund your research.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are often the most-logical fit for health-related SBIR/STTR dollars. However, thinking broadly about each agency’s mission can help you uncover health-related technology development dollars in places you might not normally expect.
The da Vinci® Surgical System(link is external) for robotically assisted minimally invasive surgery, for example, was first funded by Army SBIR to aid the warfighter. This robot helped offsite doctors perform surgery on soldiers in remote areas. It then received several larger follow-on investments by the NIH for further commercial development with potential applications in hospitals across the country.
Here is an overview of additional agencies, their solicitations, and program manager contact information to help you get started. Please pay attention to the Grant or Contract column. Typically, contracting agencies will issue specific calls for a technology, so a topic fit is extremely important. At granting agencies, topics or areas of emphasis are often broader, and these agencies frequently allow researcher-initiated ideas (meaning you propose your innovative idea to the government for funding)!
We tried to directly link to an agency’s health-related solicitation if possible, but sometimes agencies do not issue specific solicitations about health. Small businesses should make use of the SBIR.gov search feature to check topics across all open solicitations.
You are encouraged to contact program managers. For most of the agencies, speaking with a program manager is the best way to receive application specific advice. If you would like to meet these program managers in person, plan to attend the National SBIR/STTR Conference(link is external). Typically held annually in the spring or early summer in the Washington, DC region, this conference will give you the opportunity to conduct one-on-one meetings with SBIR/STTR program managers in several different agencies.
Remember, if small businesses submit similar proposals to different agencies, they may only accept ONE award to carry out the research. Small businesses cannot be funded by two agencies for the same research topic proposal.
For HHS or NIH SBIR/STTR specific questions, please email sbir@od.nih.gov(link sends e-mail)!

Budget:
Approximately 20% of the broad portfolio is for health-related technology, so approximately $34M
NSF generally focuses on proof-of-concept of early-stage technologies and therefore does NOT support pre-clinical or clinical-stage drug candidates or medical devices. Areas supported by NSF include tissue engineering, imaging technologies, diagnostic assays, drug delivery platforms, health research tools and technologies, pharmaceutical manufacturing, synthetic biology, and smart health. Proposers may find support at the NSF to develop a platform technology and also pursue support at the NIH to apply the platform to a specific disease state. |
