This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) aims to support research on interdisciplinary population approaches to increasing awareness of the relationship between alcohol and cancer risk, understanding and changing social norms related to alcohol consumption, developing and/or evaluating alcohol policy approaches, and the development, testing, and implementation of population-level interventions to reduce alcohol-related cancer risk. Applications that address multiple levels of consumption, such as moderate and heavy drinking, are of particular interest, as well as those focusing on alcohol use disorder (AUD) from the perspective of cancer prevention and control. Proposals addressing understudied areas are encouraged, as is attention to underrepresented minority (URM) populations experiencing cancer and alcohol-related disparities such as American Indian, Alaskan Native, and sexual and gender minority populations.

The primary goal of this Institutional Research Training Grant is to provide short-term training for medical students to obtain necessary aging research experiences and technical expertise and skills early during their education to encourage them to pursue careers in research. Other health professional students may also benefit from such short-term training and are eligible when research training is a minor part of, or nonexistent in, their doctoral program. This Notice of Funding Opportunity Announcement (NOFO) does not allow appointed trainees to lead an independent clinical trial but does allow them to obtain research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor.

This 5-year projects purpose is to continue collaboration with counterparts in China to reduce the threat of infectious disease transmission, in China, the U.S. and the world. This collaboration contributes to enhancing the technical collaboration, scientific exchange, and effective communication to promote health through trusted and robust partnerships between U.S. CDC and counterparts in China. The program has three broad goals: 1) strengthen public health systems and workforce capacity, 2) decrease the burden of TB, and 3) reduce influenza morbidity and mortality and enhance preparedness for pandemic threats. Activities may include joint investigations and monitoring of disease outbreaks, piloting innovative public health interventions, translating programmatic success to practice and policy, working in third countries to jointly respond to a public health emergency, and promoting rapid and transparent dissemination of public health data. This collaboration strives to leverage the expertise in China to share knowledge and evidence-based science for a bi-lateral exchange that mutually benefits the U.S. and China. By identifying governmental, non-governmental, multilateral, and private sector organizations in China, the partnership builds sustainable expertise and capacity in global health security and public health systems. Depending on funding availability and priorities, the specific infectious disease entities to be addressed can change over the period of performance.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for researchers to analyze existing oral health data or develop new statistical methods to improve understanding of dental and craniofacial issues.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for researchers to quickly investigate the immediate health impacts of unexpected environmental events, such as disasters or policy changes, by collecting critical data in partnership with affected communities.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to various organizations working to strengthen Rwanda's health systems and improve comprehensive HIV services through technical assistance and capacity building.

The Appalachian Region Healthcare Support Program provides technical assistance (TA) to help rural healthcare organizations, including critical access hospitals (CAHs), small rural hospitals, rural health clinics, tribal healthcare facilities, and other healthcare organizations located in the rural counties served by the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) with planning and implementing health care service improvements. The goal of this program is to strengthen healthcare delivery in rural areas of the Appalachian Region by improving financial and operational performance as well as the quality of care in rural healthcare organizations. The TA provider funded under this cooperative agreement will work with individual healthcare organizations to meet the following program objectives: Provide objective analysis and assessment of healthcare organizations financial status, market share, quality indicators, locally available human services, and gaps in services so that organizations can make actionable change; Identify clinical areas where expansion of services within a rural healthcare organization would meet local need, keep health care services available locally, and build capacity to improve financial and operational performance as well as quality of care. Support healthcare organizations in implementing best practice recommendations prioritized in TA action plans. For purposes of this notice of funding opportunity, rural healthcare organization is a health care organization located in a rural area in the Appalachian Region. A healthcare organization includes critical access hospitals, small rural hospitals, rural health clinics, tribal healthcare facilities, and other healthcare organizations.

To determine if a county is in the Appalachian Region, visit https://www.arc.gov/appalachian-counties-served-by-arc.For more details, see Program Requirements and Expectations.

Reissue of RFA-NS-18-019: Understanding the dynamic activity of neural circuits is central to the NIH BRAIN Initiative. The invention, proof-of-concept investigation, and optimization of new technologies through iterative feedback from end users are key components of the BRAIN Initiative. This FOA seeks applications to optimize existing or emerging technologies through iterative testing with end users. The technologies and approaches should have potential to address major challenges associated with 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). These technologies and approaches should have previously demonstrated their transformative potential through initial proof-of-concept testing and are now ready for accelerated refinement. In conjunction, the manufacturing techniques should be scalable towards sustainable, broad dissemination and user-friendly incorporation into regular 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, electrical, magnetic, acoustic 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 North Carolina GlaxoSmithKline Foundation offers $50,000 grants to North Carolina community-based nonprofit organizations for new projects or for expanding/enhancing existing programs in science, health, and education. Projects should address critical community needs identified through comprehensive assessments, align with local agency goals, and demonstrate sustainability post-funding.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support projects which enhance the quality, effectiveness and proven outcomes of nutrition services programs within the aging services network. The Older Americans Act (OAA) provides funding to States and Tribal Organizations to support a broad array of services that enable older adults to remain in their homes and communities and assist family and informal caregivers to care for their loved ones for as long as possible. More information is located here: https://acl.gov/programs/health-wellness/nutrition-services. Through this program, funds will be used to foster the development, testing and replication of innovative service delivery models, policies and partnerships that improve collaboration and coordination between OAA nutrition programs and multi-purpose senior centers. Projects proposed under this grant program must have the potential for broad implementation throughout the aging services network.
