The GIVE Washington County Fund Grants, offered by the Washington County Community Foundation in Pennsylvania, is inviting applications from eligible nonprofits, governmental or educational institutions for a flexible grant of up to $10,000, to be used in eight focus areas including animal welfare, arts, community improvement, conservation, education, health, human needs, and religion, excluding general operating or routine program support.

Rapid advances in genotyping and next generation sequencing technologies have led to the identification of genetic variants that are associated with a wide variety of congenital defects including structural birth defects (SBDs), intellectual developmental disabilities (IDDs) and inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs). Large quantities of genomic data collected from pediatric birth defects cohorts are available to the research community through several databases such as the Database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP), the Gabriella Miller Kids First Data Resource Portal, the European Genome-Phenome Archive and Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen). The purpose of this initiative is to promote the screening, functional validation and characterization of birth defects-associated genetic variants identified through public facing databases and individual efforts using in-silico tools, appropriate animal models, in vitro systems or multi-pronged approaches. This initiative addresses a challenging gap between identifying sequence variations of potential interest and recognizing which of those variations have functional effects on the phenotype of interest.

This funding opportunity supports programs that engage AmeriCorps members in service activities to strengthen communities across Illinois, focusing on areas like education, economic opportunity, and public health, with eligible applicants including nonprofits, local governments, and educational institutions.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for research consortia focused on improving the diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases through collaborative, patient-centered clinical studies involving multiple institutions and patient advocacy groups.

The "Enhancing NIDCD's Extramural Workforce Diversity through Research Experiences" grant aims to fund educational activities that inspire individuals from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to pursue careers or further studies in biomedical and behavioral sciences research.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations in West Virginia that help healthcare providers implement value-based care models specifically targeting substance use disorder in rural communities.

Funding Opportunity PurposeThe full-scale Diversity Centers for Genome Research (DCGR) program aims to establish Genomic Research Centers at Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) as defined in Part 2, section III of the FOA. The MSIs must have a mission to serve historically underrepresented populations in biomedical research that award doctorate degrees in the health professions or the sciences related to health, and have received an average of less than $50 million per year in NIH support and less than $25 million per year of R01 total cost of NIH support for the past three fiscal years. The purpose of this FOA is to call for applications for UG3/UH3 cooperative agreements to support the development and planning for a multi-investigator, interdisciplinary team to develop administrative, genomic workforce development and community engagement cores and 2-3 interrelated, innovative genomic research projects that address one or more critical issues in genomics including: genomic technology and methods development; genome structure; genome function; genomics of disease; use and impact of genomic information in clinical care; genomic data science and computational genomics, ethical, legal, and social implications of genomic research (ELSI); and/or genomics and health equity. The outcome of the development and feasibility studies will be fully developed plans to carry out all activities of a full-scale Diversity Center for Genome Research. Along with its scientific goals, the DCGR should expand the pool of diverse genomic scientists, clinician scientists, and researchers who can perform innovative genomics research by providing didactic, practicum and research activities and experiences that are aligned with the research projects.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research projects that aim to improve health outcomes and promote health equity in the U.S. by addressing social determinants of health and enhancing healthcare delivery systems.
