This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites new applications for Centers for Collaborative Research in Fragile X andFMR1-Associated Conditions (hereafter termed "Fragile X Centers"). Despite many remarkable advances in fundamental knowledge about FMR1-associated conditions, gaps in knowledge remain about the processes that drive the variability in clinical features (phenotypic heterogeneity) among affected individuals. In this round of competition, therefore, all centers will be required to identify an overarching theme directed at broadening our understanding of factors underlying the phenotypic heterogeneity and/or variability in response to interventions seen in one or more FMR1 associated conditions. Successful Fragile X Centers will be composed of multidisciplinary teams of basic, translational, clinical, and/or data science investigators applying precision medicine approaches (seeking to understand which mechanisms and interventions are most applicable to specific individuals or groups) to address the center's proposed overarching theme. This NOFO includes specific requirements about inclusion of research on human subjects or human phenotypic data; diversity of participants or materials being studied; the types of allowable clinical trials; and involvement of early-stage investigators. Applications that do not adhere to these requirements will be considered nonresponsive to this NOFO and will be withdrawn. In addition, this NOFO requires a Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP), which will be assessed as part of the scientific and technical peer review evaluation. Applications that fail to include a PEDP will be considered incomplete and will be withdrawn.Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the NOFO instructions carefully and view the availablePEDP guidance material.

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), is soliciting proposals to reduce whale mortality from fishing gear entanglement in Southern California. This grant directly aligns with NFWF's mission to sustain, restore, and enhance the nation's fish, wildlife, plants, and habitats for current and future generations by addressing a critical threat to cetacean populations. The program aims to provide compensatory restoration for injuries to cetaceans caused by the Refugio Beach Oil Spill (RBOS), thereby mitigating past environmental damage and fostering healthier marine ecosystems. The primary beneficiaries of this program are cetaceans in Southern California, particularly those susceptible to entanglement in fishing gear. The impact goals are to increase the capacity of the entanglement response network, improve documentation and disentanglement efforts, and broadly support activities that reduce serious injuries or mortalities from entanglements. This initiative contributes to the foundation's strategic priority of healthy oceans and coasts by safeguarding marine mammals. The program prioritizes several key areas to achieve its goals. These include directly enhancing entanglement response in Southern California, and potentially beyond if it benefits local cetaceans, coordinating with federal, state, and local resource agencies to improve the overall West Coast Marine Mammal Entanglement Response Program, and training and developing volunteer response capacity. Furthermore, proposals should outline how activities will contribute to the development of the overall capacity and infrastructure of the program. Expected outcomes include a more robust and efficient entanglement response network, a reduction in the number of entangled cetaceans, improved survival rates of entangled animals through effective disentanglement, and enhanced coordination among relevant agencies. Measurable results would likely involve metrics such as the number of successful disentanglements, the increase in trained responders, and the documented reduction in entanglement-related mortalities. An estimated $250,000 will be available for a Phase 1 project award, anticipated to last 1-2 years, with a priority geographic focus on the coastlines off Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, and Orange Counties.

Black/African Americans have been disproportionately affected by HIV since the early days of the epidemic and that disparity has deepened over time. Although they represent only 12% of the population, Black/African Americans account for approximately 43% of new HIV diagnosis. This disparity is further exacerbated by the critical shortage of primary care providers trained to provide counseling, HIV testing, prescribe PrEP and HIV care and treatment. This is especially true for the number of providers working in communities most at-risk for HIV. The purpose of the Building Workforce Capacity through Pathways in HIV Residency Training Program (Pathways Program) is to train internal and family medicine residents in HIV treatment and care management with the goal of increasing the number and diversity of HIV providers.

Research shows that HIV care must increasingly address the management of individuals with multiple coexisting diseases (p.357) such as infectious and chronic diseases, mental health and behavioral disorders, food insecurity, substance use, etc. Since individual diseases do not exist in a vacuum, neither does the management, or burden of disease on community well-being. In response, syndemic theory and approaches are used to (1) increase the focus on co-occurring and interacting disease and social conditions that exacerbate health inequities, and (2) advance the evidence base for effective approaches to assess, monitor, and intervene with respect to these co-occurring and interacting factors for optimal outcomes in HIV treatment and care. The purpose of this project is to design, implement, and evaluate innovative comprehensive interventions part of an integrated treatment plan , using a syndemic approach to address co-occurring and interacting conditions of HIV, substance use disorder, intimate partner violence (IPV), and other social determinants of health that impact health outcomes of racial and ethnic minorities with HIV.
