The "Single Source for Chronic Pancreatitis Clinical Research Consortium (CPCRC) Data Coordinating Center (CPCRC-DCC)" grant aims to fund a Coordination and Data Management Center to continue and complete ongoing research on chronic pancreatitis, diabetes, and pancreatic cancer, focusing on understanding the pathophysiology, risk factors, and potential treatments, while promoting collaboration and data sharing among consortium members.

This grant provides funding to exceptional U.S.-based graduate students transitioning from predoctoral to postdoctoral research in kidney, urologic, or hematologic sciences, encouraging diverse talent to contribute to these fields.

The objective of this research proposal is to develop physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model-based mechanistic in vitro in vivo correlations (IVIVCs) for two major types of long acting injectables (LAIs) such as crystalline suspensions and polymer-based implants by considering their distinct characteristics. The goal of the project is to develop a bottom-up mechanistic PBPK model for these two LAI categories by accounting for the influence of critical formulation attributes of each LAI drug product type to predict its in vivo release mechanism. The model formulation parameters and relevant physiology should be informed with suitable in vitro and in vivo experiments. A suitable preclinical animal model can be used to validate the PBPK model based IVIVCs for both LAI suspensions and polymer based implants. The use of PBPK modelling provides a unique opportunity to understand how the physicochemical properties of drug molecules/polymer, implant specific properties, critical formulation attributes, and physiology, among other things, influence the in vivo release mechanisms of LAI drug products and their disposition characteristics. Moreover, once developed, a mechanistic PBPK model can help to define the 'safe space' for critical formulation attributes relevant to the reference listed drug (RLD) product, explain sources of PK variability and extrapolate predictions to human subjects by leveraging animal model data and by accounting for species-specific physiological differences.

This funding opportunity supports research projects that investigate the relationship between HIV and aging, focusing on improving health outcomes for older adults living with HIV, particularly in diverse and underserved populations.

This funding opportunity supports researchers and organizations in improving and sustaining software tools for biomedical and health-related research by adopting best practices and enhancing collaboration within the scientific community.

This program provides funding to nonprofit organizations, tribal groups, and public food service providers to develop community-driven projects that improve access to nutritious food and build sustainable local food systems for those facing food insecurity.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to nonprofit universities, colleges, and research institutions in the U.S. to advance aquaculture research and technology, aiming to improve seafood production and sustainability.

This funding opportunity supports projects that enhance the marketing, production, and consumption of specialty crops in Arizona, targeting state and local organizations, producer associations, academic institutions, and community-based groups involved in the specialty crop sector.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit grant applications from neutral, independent institutions and/or organizations to support meetings (e.g., conferences, workgroups, roundtables) that convene a broad range of multiple stakeholders, including those with relevant expertise, to explore, research, and address issues related to medical products, policy, and surveillance methods and systems. Support includes, but is not limited to the design, planning, execution, synthesis, summary, and communication of findings from these forums to a broad range of organizations and individuals.

This initiative provides funding opportunities for private sector entities in Jordan to collaborate with USAID in addressing key development challenges, focusing on economic growth, water security, governance, education, and the empowerment of women and youth.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for organizations to plan and host two virtual summits focused on improving maternal and child health in Wisconsin, targeting local and Tribal health agencies.

This grant provides funding to various organizations and businesses to promote and expand direct marketing opportunities for local agricultural products, benefiting farmers and communities across the U.S.

This grant provides funding to partnerships of diverse stakeholders, including nonprofits and local governments, to strengthen local and regional food systems through collaboration, infrastructure improvement, and market access initiatives.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit research designed to capacitate, transform, and scale the delivery of HIV testing, prevention, and care services through pharmacists and pharmacies in US and/or global settings. This includes theadvancement of training curricula to enable pharmacy students, pharmacists, pharmacies, and pharmacy systems to deliver the spectrum of needed HIV services with ease, equity, and effectiveness. This NOFO uses the R01 grant mechanism, while RFA-MH-25-186 uses the R21 mechanism. Projects that lack preliminary data or that propose to pilot a novel intervention may be most appropriate for the R21 mechanism. Applications with preliminary data and those proposing large-scale clinical trials or longitudinal analyses should consider using the R01 mechanism.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for U.S. colleges and universities to design and deliver a training program on U.S. food safety regulations for nine Armenian participants from government, private sector, NGOs, and academia.

This grant provides funding to support early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds in developing independent careers focused on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias through mentored training and research opportunities.

This funding opportunity supports U.S.-based healthcare organizations working with maternal care professionals to create culturally relevant educational materials and tools that improve access to maternal immunization resources, particularly in underserved communities.
