The Rural and Municipal Utility Cybersecurity (RMUC) Program is offering a grant opportunity for electric cooperative, municipal, and small investor-owned utilities with limited cybersecurity resources. The Advanced Cybersecurity Technology (ACT) 1 Prize is a three-phase competition that challenges eligible utilities to identify risks and implement solutions to improve their overall cybersecurity posture. Utilities that progress through the competition will receive cash prizes and technical assistance to invest in staff training, governance processes, and cybersecurity tools and technologies. To apply, interested applicants should review the official rules for the complete application process and requirements. Eligible utilities can then create a HeroX account, accept the ACT 1 Prize Competitor Agreement, and choose whether to compete as a team. Application templates are available to aid in completing the application. Additionally, Phase 1 applicants must participate in two mandatory virtual webinars. The ACT 1 Prize offers a total prize pool of up to $8.96 million in cash and technical assistance across three phases: Commitment, Planning, and Implementation. Each phase concludes with a prize award. In the Commitment Phase, utilities prepare submission packages describing their resources, need for improving cybersecurity, and commitment to participating. In the Planning Phase, utilities work with technical assistance providers to assess systems, identify training needs, understand risks and solutions, and draft an implementation roadmap. Finally, in the Implementation Phase, utilities make progress towards completing their roadmap with the help of technical assistance providers. Administered by DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and managed by DOE's Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER), the RMUC Program's ACT 1 Prize is part of a larger initiative to enhance the cybersecurity posture of electric utilities. The program will provide $250 million over five years to support critical investments, deliver technical assistance, and provide cybersecurity training to utility workers. This will result in a more secure and resilient energy grid. Interested parties can visit the RMUC Program webpage for more information and to sign up for updates.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support collaborative, transdisciplinary, translational research projects which advance exceptionally promising, chemically complex botanical and other natural products relevant to dietary supplements towards highly informative clinical trials of their effects on quantitative, objective measures of human resilience. Dynamic, synergistic interactions among the range of experts required to ensure rigor in all aspects of this research will be supported by a multi-PD/PI team collaborating on a single set of integrated specific aims, culminating in data on optimal parameters for a future proposed clinical efficacy trial, as well as the development and validation of other critical knowledge and methods for interpretation of such a trial, such as clinical assessment of the engagement of an outcome-relevant target. Enhancing workforce and institutional capacity to conduct future rigorous, transdisciplinary research on chemically complex natural products must be built into the plans for research and for enhancing diverse perspectives. Achievement of the RM1 specific aims is expected to provide a strong foundation for a future highly informative clinical efficacy trial of the effects on resilience of a chemically complex natural product.This NOFO is one component of the Consortium Advancing Research on Botanicals and Other Natural Products (CARBON) Program. Other components of this Program include RFA-AT-24-008, Leveraging Data at Scale to Understand Natural Product Impacts on Whole Person Health (R01) and RFA-AT-24-007, Limited Competition: Research Resource for Natural Product Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Data (R24).

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support research that 1) defines associations between variations in human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genetic regions and immune-mediated diseases, 2) elucidates mechanisms underlying these associations with the goal of advancing therapeutic opportunities, and/or 3) validates association data in order to improve the predictive power of clinical disease screening.

The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is soliciting applications for Secondary Analyses of Head Start Data awards. These awards aim to support researchers conducting secondary analyses of data of relevance to Head Start (HS) programs and policies. This includes research of relevance to HS programs serving families with children 3 to 5 years old, Early HS programs serving pregnant women and families with infants and toddlers, American Indian Alaska Native (AI/AN) HS programs serving families in tribal communities, and Migrant and Seasonal HS programs serving families engaged in migrant and seasonal farm work. The goals of the awards are to: 1) Address topics of current relevance to the goals and outcomes of HS programs; 2) Encourage active communication, networking, and collaboration among prominent HS researchers and policymakers; and 3) Increase the capacity of HS researchers to analyze existing data sets and disseminate their findings to multiple audiences. Topics and data sets of particular interest will be identified in the Notice of Funding Opportunity. Findings from these awards are intended to inform policy, program administration, and future research.
