Grant Opportunity: Saginaw Bay Watershed Pollution Prevention/Chemical Collection Program Description: This grant opportunity is for the construction of a permanent facility to collect pesticides from farmers, homeowners, nurseries, etc. The facility will allow any end user of pesticides to dispose of unwanted materials at no cost. The project was completed in 1999 and is a joint project of the Saginaw County Department of Health and the Michigan Department of Agriculture. Grant Opportunity: Demonstrate Effectiveness of Biodegradable Two-Cycle Engine Oil Description: This grant opportunity is for field testing a soy-based oil that can be used as an alternative to petroleum-based oil in engines such as jet skis, outboard motors, and snowmobiles. The soy-based oil is environmentally preferable as it is 96% biodegradable and does not emit pollutants into the air and water. The funding will be used to demonstrate the safety and performance of the oil and document reductions in emissions into the environment. Grant Opportunity: Saginaw Bay Watershed Native Planting Preserve at Saginaw Valley State University Description: This grant opportunity aims to fund the development of a native planting preserve on the campus of Saginaw Valley State University. The preserve will include plants, signage, and walking trails. The project intends to encourage the use of native plantings in the general public and serve as a demonstration/research site at the university. Grant Opportunity: Alternative Energy from Agriculturally-Derived Pellet Fuel Description: This grant opportunity involves analyzing the technical and economic viability of manufacturing renewable pellet fuel derived from agricultural sources. The research includes studying the economic and environmental impact of using biomass combustion furnaces for heating residential and light industrial buildings. The project also includes developing a web-based interface for real-time telemetry information. Grant Opportunity: Conservation Tillage Risk Protection Program Description: This grant opportunity aims to demonstrate the use of conservation tillage in two subwatersheds of the Tittabawassee River. The

This funding opportunity supports the development of diverse cancer research cohorts to improve understanding of cancer causes and outcomes, particularly among underrepresented populations.

The purpose of the Mentored Quantitative Research Career Development Award (K25) is to attract to NIH-relevant research those investigators whose quantitative science and engineering research has thus far not been focused primarily on questions of health and disease. The K25 award will provide support and "protected time" for a period of supervised study and research for productive professionals with quantitative (e.g., mathematics, statistics, economics, computer science, imaging science, informatics, physics, chemistry) and engineering backgrounds to integrate their expertise with NIH-relevant research. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is designed specifically for applicants proposing research that does not involve leading an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or an ancillary clinical trial. Applicants to this FOA are permitted to propose research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor. Applicants proposing a clinical trial or an ancillary clinical trial as lead investigator, should apply to the companion FOA ().

This funding opportunity supports U.S.-based cancer research institutions to enhance their research infrastructure and collaborative efforts in cancer prevention, treatment, and care.

This funding opportunity supports research projects aimed at reducing stigma related to HIV/AIDS in low- and middle-income countries, with a focus on improving health outcomes for affected populations.

This funding opportunity supports innovative projects that develop new technologies for recording and modulating neural activity, aimed at enhancing our understanding of the nervous system through live-animal experimentation.

This funding opportunity supports researchers exploring the ethical, legal, and social issues related to human genetic and genomic research, particularly as these technologies become more integrated into healthcare and society.

This grant provides funding to early-stage researchers exploring innovative chemical and pharmacological approaches to understanding and treating substance use disorders.

The STRIPE program grant is designed to fund pre-clinical research that explores how radiopharmaceutical therapy affects cancer cells and their environment, with the aim of developing new targeting strategies and informing the design of future RPT-based clinical trials.

This funding opportunity supports research projects that aim to improve the adoption and sustainability of effective health interventions, particularly in underserved communities, while also addressing the reduction of ineffective practices.

The "BRAIN Initiative: Research Resource Grants for Technology Integration and Dissemination" grant aims to support the distribution, integration, and minor improvement of existing neuroscience research tools and technologies, as well as user training, to help achieve the goals outlined in the "BRAIN 2025: A Scientific Vision" report.

This grant provides funding to U.S. nurse researchers and institutions to develop resources and support innovative studies focused on preventing firearm injuries, particularly among marginalized populations.

This grant provides funding to establish a center that will support researchers in developing new digital therapeutics for substance use disorders by offering technical assistance and guidance for moving their ideas into viable products.

This funding opportunity supports research projects that aim to expand and sustain lung cancer screening programs for high-risk and underserved populations across diverse clinical settings.

This program provides funding for projects that strengthen the relationship between the United States and Germany by promoting collaboration, democratic values, and sustainable economies, particularly through partnerships with German organizations.

This funding opportunity supports multidisciplinary research and community projects aimed at reducing health disparities related to environmental factors among disadvantaged populations in the U.S.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites grant applications from institutions/organizations that propose to build a Medical Rehabilitation Research Center. The centers will have a specific rehabilitation research theme and be comprised of a research project supported by 3 cores. The 3 cores will have functions within the center as well as functions nationwide. Together, the cores will support: administrative functions (including an optional pilot program), resource sharing, and community engagement and outreach. The Medical Rehabilitation Research Centers will contribute tomedical rehabilitation research infrastructure by developing and disseminating techniques, data, theories, research programs, and expertise with the goal of enhancing the capability of medical rehabilitation investigators to understand mechanisms of functional recovery, develop therapeutic strategies, identify clinical care gaps, and improve the lives of people with disabilities. Applications must include a plan for inclusion of People with Lived Experience (as a required other attachment) that is relevant to the research theme of the center and increases the potential impact of the center.

This grant provides funding to researchers planning clinical trials focused on cancer prevention and control, helping them address challenges and improve the design and feasibility of their studies.

This funding opportunity supports educational projects in Ohio that raise awareness and understanding of environmental issues, targeting schools, nonprofits, and local governments to engage diverse audiences in making informed environmental decisions.

This broad RFA will support exploratory studies addressing mechanistic questions in HIV infection, replication, latency, and/or pathogenesis (including HAND) in the context of SUDs.
