Grants for Public and State controlled institutions of higher education - Health

The goal of the Bridges to the Baccalaureate Research Training Program is to provide structured activities to prepare a diverse cohort of research-oriented students to transfer from associate degree-granting to baccalaureate degree-granting institutions and complete a baccalaureate degree in biomedical research fields. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) provides support to eligible, domestic institutions to develop and implement effective, evidence-informed approaches to biomedical training and mentoring that will keep pace with the rapid evolution of the research enterprise. NIGMS expects that the proposed research training programs will incorporate didactic, research, mentoring, and career development elements. This program requires strong partnerships between at least two post-secondary educational institutions offering science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) degrees. At least one partner must be an institution that offers the associate degree as the highest STEM degree and the other partner(s) must offer baccalaureate degrees in biomedically relevant STEM fields. Upon completion of the Bridges to the Baccalaureate Research Training program, trainees are expected to be well positioned to pursue a research-oriented biomedical higher degree program or enter careers in the biomedical research workforce.This FOA 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 funding opportunity supports researchers in analyzing existing data to advance understanding of substance use behaviors and disorders, particularly focusing on innovative approaches and diverse populations.

This funding opportunity supports researchers investigating genetic mouse models that experience early life challenges, aiming to advance our understanding of congenital diseases and developmental disorders.

This funding opportunity supports research projects that develop non-drug interventions to improve sleep health and reduce disparities among underserved populations in the U.S.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for organizations to evaluate programs that help adoptive families maintain stability and prevent children from re-entering foster care.

This grant provides funding to U.S. higher education institutions to support predoctoral training programs in neuroscience, focusing on developing a diverse group of skilled scientists through comprehensive research training and mentorship.

The "Revision Applications for Incorporation of Novel NCI-Supported Technology to Accelerate Cancer Research" grant aims to encourage current NCI U01 research projects to incorporate new technologies from the NCI Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies program, in order to enhance their original research and speed up scientific discoveries in cancer research.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for the development of affordable and culturally appropriate biomedical technologies aimed at reducing healthcare disparities among underserved populations in the United States.

This grant provides funding and support for junior faculty from underrepresented backgrounds in neuroscience to lead independent clinical trials and advance their research careers.

The "Interaction Between Environmental Factors and Lewy Body Dementia" grant aims to fund research that investigates how environmental factors like pollution and metals can cause Lewy Body Dementia, with the goal of finding new, changeable targets for treatment.

The grant titled "BRAIN Initiative: Targeted BRAIN Circuits Planning Projects TargetedBCPP (R34 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)" is designed to fund exploratory research projects that use innovative methods to understand how brain circuit activity influences mental experiences and behavior, with successful results potentially leading to further research projects.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to nonprofit organizations and governmental entities in New York State to implement and evaluate effective strategies that increase HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake among Black and Brown communities, addressing health disparities in HIV prevention.

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.
