The Superfund Research Program (SRP) funds multidisciplinary scientific research to address complex environmental health problems related to hazardous substances. Grant recipients are expected to deliver fundamentally sound science to better protect human health, while providing data and other information to assist the risk assessment and remediation management of Superfund and other hazardous waste sites.

Multiproject Center Grants (P42)
Multiproject, interdisciplinary Centers bring together researchers from different scientific disciplines to address a common environmental health problem.

Individual Research Grants (R01)
These grants are awarded for individual research projects to address specific issues that complement the multiproject research centers.

Occupational Health and Safety Training Education Programs on Emerging Technologies (R25)
R25 grants develop education programs on occupational health and safety for the evaluation, management, and handling of hazardous substances.

Small Business Innovation Research Grants (R43/44)
SRP funds Small Business Innovation Research grants to foster the commercialization of technologies, products, and devices.

Time-Sensitive Research Grants (R21)
Time-Sensitive Research Grants support environmental health research when an unpredictable event provides a limited window to collect samples or data to understand the consequences of emerging environmental public health threats in the U.S. and abroad.
