The Chautauqua County Tourism Product Development Grant Program, with a deadline of 10/01/2024, offers $10,000 to $100,000 for projects that enhance tourism and recreation opportunities, increase visibility, and promote overnight stays in the county, with a focus on event development, marketing, and attraction enhancement.

FY 2024 WIC General Infrastructure Grants will support WIC State agencies as they continue to modernize the program. Projects will support WIC Infrastructure, including technological, digital, partnership, and/or outreach infrastructure at the State agency level through activities related to outreach, innovation, program modernization, and increased equity in program access through four Tracks/objectives. This RFA includes four application Tracks, each with one Objective. The four Tracks include:1) Updating the State agencys management information system (MIS) and/or electronic benefit transfer (EBT) system to meet new Federal requirements.*Please see notes in the Tracks and Objectives section below for information about State agency model (SAM) user groups. 2) Enhancing the State agencys MIS, EBT system, and/or other technology used to provide WIC benefits and services. These enhancements must provide a better user experience for WIC applicants, participants, and staff and/or to improve longevity, flexibility, program integrity, and/or cost efficiency.3) Increasing WIC awareness among the public through adoption of new WIC branding and/or the conduct of partnership and/or outreach activities.4) Upgrading State and/or local agency technology equipment and/or supplies to improve WIC performance, security, and/or user experience (including by optimizing virtual services). Each Application Submitted Must be for Only One Track. State agencies may apply for one or more of the Tracks outlined above but are limited to one Track per application. Section 4 of the RFA provides details for the application requirements for each Track. For each Track, State agencies may apply either as an individual applicant or as the lead of a multi-State agency collaboration. Any lead of a multi-State agency collaboration will be considered the applicant and the funded recipient (i.e., the grantee). The lead State agency is responsible for completing and submitting all application components and will be the sole recipient of funding for the project; therefore responsible for all funded activities and required reporting.

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 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 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 funding supports Colorado newsrooms in organizing community engagement events to connect with diverse local residents, address their concerns, and foster trust between journalists and the communities they serve.

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.
