This program will support projects to identify and characterize factors associated with gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) that may impact/contribute significantly to the prevention and treatment of HIV and/or co-infections with other sexually transmitted infections (STI)s in transgender individuals. For this funding opportunity GAHT is defined as a medical intervention, including but not limited to estrogen and/or testosterone treatment, that results in acquisition of secondary sex characteristics that align with an individual's gender identity. A growing body of data indicates that GAHT may impact the effectiveness and implementation of biomedical HIV prevention or treatment strategies and/or co-infections with other STIs. A number of factors in transgender populations present research challenges including variability in GAHT regimens, use of auxiliary drugs during GAHT care, access to participants, and access to existing cohorts, datasets, and samples. Consideration of appropriate controls, including cis-gender men and women is also a barrier. Recent studies demonstrating recruitment and retention of participants undergoing GAHT provide the opportunity to build on those studies and provide confidence that these critical studies are feasible.Letter of Intent Due Date(s) 30 days prior to the application due date

This funding opportunity provides resources to schools and local governments to implement strategies and training aimed at preventing violence in K–12 educational settings.

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for the Research Units (RUs), one of the two scientific components of the Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium (PCDC), to conduct research on early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and characterization of its precursor lesions to identify those patients who are at high risk of progression to cancer. The PCDC will continue to address one of the four research priorities identified in the National Cancer Institute's 2014 Scientific Framework for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. The PCDC will support research for the development and testing of new molecular and imaging biomarkers for detecting PDAC early and for identifying those patients at high risk of PDAC (because of genetic factors or presence of precursor lesions) who could be candidates for early intervention. The PCDC-RUs will consist of multi-disciplinary teams and will undertake studies to: identify and test biomarkers measurable in bodily fluids for early detection of PDAC and/or its precursor lesions; determine which pancreatic cysts are likely to progress to cancer; develop molecular- and/or imaging-based approaches for screening populations at high risk of PDAC; use machine learning and computational approaches towards biomarker discovery and/or validation; and conduct biomarker validation studies. The PCDC-RUs will also collect longitudinal biospecimens for building a biorepository. Each PCDC-RU is expected to participate in collaborative activities with other PCDC-RUs and share ideas, biospecimens and data within the Consortium. The other scientific component of the PCDC will be the Management and Data Coordination Unit (MDCU). The PCDC-MDCU will provide support toward study design, protocol development, statistical analysis, coordination, harmonization, data management and stewardship for the trans-PCDC collaborative projects, including biorepository building effort.

The purpose of the NIH Independent Scientist Award (K02) is to foster the development of outstanding scientists and enable them to expand their potential to make significant contributions to their field of research. The K02 award provides three to five years of salary support and "protected time" for newly independent scientists who can demonstrate the need for a period of intensive research focus as a means of enhancing their research careers. Each independent scientist career award program must be tailored to meet the individual needs of the candidate. 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 a separate ancillary clinical trial. Applicants to this FOA are permitted to propose research experience in a clinical trial led by another investigator. Applicants proposing a clinical trial or an ancillary clinical trial as lead investigator, should apply to the companion FOA

This funding opportunity supports innovative research that investigates how aging affects individuals living with HIV, focusing on improving their health outcomes and addressing related challenges.
