This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications from institutions/organizations that propose to establish a Research Resource Center (RRC) for the NIDDK Nutrition Obesity Research Centers (NORC) Program. The NORC Program consists of eleven Centers across the nation that support and enhance the national research effort in nutrition and obesity through cutting-edge basic, clinical, translational, and health disparities research in nutrition science and obesity. In collaboration with the existing NORC program, the RRC will (1) provide administrative support for the entire NORC Program, (2) establish and curate a NORC Program website and centralized repository of research resources , (3) implement a multipronged approach to support and grow the early-to-midcareer research workforce, including individuals from diverse backgrounds, with a goal of maximizing national outreach and impact, (4) administer and manage a NORC Opportunity Program to address gaps and promote collaboration, and (5) manage a Pilot and Feasibility Program.This NOFO requires a Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP), which will be assessed as part of the scientific and technical peer review evaluation. Applications that fail to include a PEDP will be considered incomplete and will be withdrawn.

This program provides $50,000 grants to small nonprofit arts organizations in select states to strengthen their operational sustainability and enhance their community services.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations in New Jersey that offer training and employment services to individuals affected by the opioid crisis, helping them gain skills and secure jobs.

Funding Opportunity Description Developing medical countermeasures to protect civilians against intentional and accidental toxic chemical exposure that can lead to mass casualties is a major goal of the biodefense program at NIH. More specifically, this goal is executed by the Chemical Countermeasures Research Program (CCRP) at NIAID in partnership with several other ICs across the NIH (NIH Strategic Plan and Research Agenda for Medical Countermeasures Against Chemical Threats). NIAMS has been a critical and active partner in this trans-NIH effort since the CCRP’s inception in 2006. In order to broaden its research base and raise the awareness of the scientific community at large about the urgent need for effective countermeasures against chemical threats, the CCRP is encouraging its IC partners to issue IC-specific FOAs to further engage their respective research disciplines that are not currently engaged in the medical countermeasure research field. This initiative is a response to that request. The intent of the initiative is to encourage the NIAMS skin research community to contribute to the basic understanding of injuries caused by those toxic chemicals identified by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as high consequence public health threats and to explore the local and systemic mechanisms of chemical wound development, healing, and long-term consequences. It is envisaged that such initiative will benefit both the national civilian defense program as well as the basic skin wound healing research at large. This initiative will emphasize understanding commonalities in the fundamental mechanisms of skin injuries caused by vesicants such as sulfur mustard, Lewisite, nitrogen mustard, phosgene oxime, and arsenicals, which may be different from thermal burn. The investigators are also encouraged to collaborate with researchers in tissues other than skin that are affected by the vesicants (e.g., eyes and lung) to find commonalities of injury mechanisms shared with skin. It is hoped that the fundamental knowledge gained would ultimately lead to the discovery and characterization of potential shared therapeutic targets (e.g., in signal transduction pathways and inflammation process) and the development of broad-spectrum medical countermeasures. This FOA is intended for investigators who are not currently supported under the CCRP’s CounterACT program but whose research interests are relevant to skin chemical injuries and to skin wound healing in general. It is assumed that the proposed project will represent a new direction for the applicant, which requires the applicant’s research lab to acquire new skills (e.g., handling toxic chemicals), gather new resources (e.g., establishing collaborative or contractual relationships with facilities certified to utilize restricted/controlled chemicals) and generate new preliminary data. Therefore, this FOA uses a planning mechanism (R34) to support such investigators to commence the preparatory steps toward this new line of study. This means that the applicants do not need to present preliminary data supporting the proposed study in concept, nor publication records and specific skills and proficiency in experimental execution in the chemical medical countermeasures field. However, the PD/PI should demonstrate prior experience in wound healing research and general knowledge relating to skin injury and healing. It is expected that a successful outcome of a proposed project is that the investigator has added within the laboratory (if needed) personnel with the skills and expertise to conduct studies in this area, established a working relationship with facilities certified for toxic chemicals (if needed), and gathered sufficient preliminary data to support a more comprehensive research project suitable under the other more translationally-focused CCRP FOAs.

This funding opportunity supports research projects that explore innovative combinations of radiation therapy and other treatments to improve cancer care, inviting applications from a diverse range of organizations, including universities, nonprofits, and for-profit entities.

The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of this NHGRI R25 program is to support educational activities that encourage undergraduates from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical workforce, to pursue further training and careers in the scientific, medical, ethical, social and/or legal areas of genomics research. To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this FOA will support creative educational activities with a primary focus on: Research Experiences Courses for Skills Development This Genome Research Experiences to Attract Talented Undergraduates into the Genomic Field to Promote Diversity (GREAT) Program will support collaborative institutional partnerships that provide research education programs for undergraduates enrolled at minority-serving institutions (MSIs) or Institutional Development Award (IDeA)-eligible institutions. A partnership will include a MSI or IDeA-eligible institution, and one or more research-intensive institutions or organizations with a suitable research base for graduate-level training in scientific areas of interest to NHGRI.
