The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite R01 applications on chronic conditions understudied among women and/or that disproportionately affect populations of women who are understudied, underrepresented, and underreported in biomedical Research should align with Goal 1 of the 2019-2023 Trans-NIH Strategic Plan for Women's Health Research "Advancing Science for the Health of Women." The awards under this FOA will be administered by NIH ICs using funds that have been made available through the Office of Research on Womens Health (ORWH) and the scientific partnering Institutes and Centers across NIH.

Reissue of RFA-NS-18-020: Understanding the dynamic activity of brain circuits is central to the NIH BRAIN Initiative. This FOA seeks applications for proof-of-concept testing and development of new technologies and novel approaches for recording and modulation (including various modalities for stimulation/activation, inhibition and manipulation) of cells (i.e., neuronal and non-neuronal) and networks to enable transformative understanding of dynamic signaling in the central nervous system (CNS). This FOA seeks exceptionally creative approaches to address major challenges associated with recording and modulating CNS activity, at or near cellular resolution, at multiple spatial and/or temporal scales, in any region and throughout the entire depth of the brain. It is expected that the proposed research may be high-risk, but if successful, could profoundly change the course of neuroscience research. Proposed technologies should be compatible with experiments in behaving animals, validated under in vivo experimental conditions, and capable of reducing major barriers to conducting neurobiological experiments and making new discoveries about the CNS. Technologies may engage diverse types of signaling beyond neuronal electrical activity such as optical, magnetic, acoustic and/or genetic recording/manipulation. Applications that seek to integrate multiple approaches are encouraged. If suitable, applications are expected to integrate appropriate domains of expertise, including biological, chemical and physical sciences, engineering, computational modeling and statistical analysis.

The Heartland Area Action Fund, Stockton Community Fund, and Ellis, Rooks, and Trego County Legacy Funds are designed to support a wide range of charitable needs within the Heartland area, aiming to enhance the quality of life across these communities. The funds are unrestricted, allowing for flexible support of various community needs and populations, but some are geographically restricted to specific areas within Kansas, including Ellis, Rooks, Trego Counties, and the city of Stockton. Eligible applicants for these grants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, government entities, and religious organizations. Other individuals or organizations not falling into these categories are encouraged to partner with a fiscal agent that does. There's a universal grant application process for all requests, with two application cycles annually. Grant renewed every year. Grant Spring annual opening/ closing deadline: March 15th to May 15th

Local education agencies (e.g., School Districts, Charter Schools, and County Offices of Education) must submit a successful request for application (RFA) describing how the LEA will both increase the number of early educators available to serve in the California State Preschool Program (CSPP) and Transitional Kindergarten (TK), and increase specific competencies for early educators within CSPP, TK, or Kindergarten (K) programs. Applicants must submit a letter of intent (LOI) to be eligible to apply for funding.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research projects that aim to improve health outcomes and promote health equity in the U.S. by addressing social determinants of health and enhancing healthcare delivery systems.

The Shullsburg Fund, established in 2004 by area citizens, serves as a permanent funding source dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in and around Shullsburg. Managed as a component of the Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin, it annually redistributes a portion of its earnings to finance projects and programs that positively impact community life. The fund focuses on supporting non-profit organizations, the local school district, and local government agencies with charitable initiatives. Grants are ceremoniously awarded in June each year, underlining the fund's commitment to community development and welfare. Grant renewed every year. Grant annual deadline: May 15th

This grant provides funding for researchers and institutions to develop innovative technologies that can record and modulate neural activity, with a focus on advancing neuroscience through proof-of-concept projects.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the development of Clinical Outcome Assessments (COA) for Substance Use Disorders (SUD). The COA development plan is expected to progress into the FDA drug development tool qualification program. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) utilizes the UG3/UH3Phased Innovation Awards Cooperative Agreement grant mechanism that includes two phases. The applications responding to this NOFO should contain a COA development plan that will cover both UG3 and UH3 phases. In the first 2-year UG3 phasethe project must have a set of operational milestones to be completed by the end of this period. Once NIDA program has evaluated the progress of the UG3 phase and determined that the UG3 phase has been successfully completed, it transitions to the UH3 phase to be funded for three additional years.The goal of this NOFO is to expand the armamentarium of COA that are FDA qualified as drug development tool (DDT) in the context of use (COI) of a SUD. Achieving this goal will greatly facilitate the development of treatments for SUDs. 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 available PEDP guidance material.
