Required next actionEvaluate a specific N9+ R&D or validation aim against the missions and funding considerations of participating NIH components; confirm Dr. Miltie's U.S. small-business ownership, size, PI-employment, SAM/UEI, Grants.gov, eRA Commons and SBIR registration requirements before treating this as a TRUE direct submission. NIH's September 11, 2026 Research on Chatbots and their Usage highlighted topic adds a conditional research angle where a scientifically rigorous SBIR project evaluates chatbot safety, performance, symptom interpretation, chronic-disease management, telehealth, decision support, or clinical monitoring and uses Nonagon N9+ device and platform data as a justified input or validation layer. The highlighted topic is not a stand-alone NOFO and does not make generic chatbot integration or ordinary device deployment responsive. NIGMS is also hosting an optional PA-27-100 small-business webinar on October 26, 2026 from 1:00-2:00 PM ET with no advance registration required.
