Both NIH Director’s Awards focus on creativity and innovation. The New Innovator Award is specifically targeted to new investigators who have not yet received an R01 or equivalent type of NIH grant and who have had a relatively short time since receipt of the doctoral degree. The Pioneer Award program is open to all investigators regardless of career stage. There are other differences in eligibility requirements. Although both programs require only a brief application, details of the application formats are different.
