Grants for Native American tribal organizations - Federal

The Statewide Family Network Program aims to enhance the capacity of statewide mental health family-controlled organizations. These organizations engage with family members and primary caregivers who are raising children, youth, and young adults with serious emotional disturbance (SED) and/or co-occurring disorders (COD). The program supports family-driven, trauma-informed, culturally relevant, holistic, and resiliency-oriented approaches. Eligible applicants include states and territories, political subdivisions of states, Indian tribes or tribal organizations, health facilities, and other public or private non-profit entities. Applications are due by April 8, 2024, with awards expected to start by September 30, 2024. The grant provides up to $120,000 per year for up to three years, with a total available funding of $1,116,777. Nine awards are anticipated. Cost sharing or matching is not required.

The objective of this research proposal is to develop physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model-based mechanistic in vitro in vivo correlations (IVIVCs) for two major types of long acting injectables (LAIs) such as crystalline suspensions and polymer-based implants by considering their distinct characteristics. The goal of the project is to develop a bottom-up mechanistic PBPK model for these two LAI categories by accounting for the influence of critical formulation attributes of each LAI drug product type to predict its in vivo release mechanism. The model formulation parameters and relevant physiology should be informed with suitable in vitro and in vivo experiments. A suitable preclinical animal model can be used to validate the PBPK model based IVIVCs for both LAI suspensions and polymer based implants. The use of PBPK modelling provides a unique opportunity to understand how the physicochemical properties of drug molecules/polymer, implant specific properties, critical formulation attributes, and physiology, among other things, influence the in vivo release mechanisms of LAI drug products and their disposition characteristics. Moreover, once developed, a mechanistic PBPK model can help to define the 'safe space' for critical formulation attributes relevant to the reference listed drug (RLD) product, explain sources of PK variability and extrapolate predictions to human subjects by leveraging animal model data and by accounting for species-specific physiological differences.

Purpose of Program: The purpose of the Technical Assistance on State Data Collection program is to improve the capacity of States to meet the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) data collection and reporting requirements. Funding for the program is authorized under section 611(c)(1) of IDEA, which gives the Secretary authority to reserve not more than one-half of one percent of the amounts appropriated under Part B for each fiscal year to provide TA activities, where needed, to improve the capacity of States to meet the data collection and reporting requirements under Parts B and C of IDEA. The maximum amount the Secretary may reserve under this set-aside for any fiscal year is $25,000,000, cumulatively adjusted by the rate of inflation. Section 616(i) of IDEA requires the Secretary to review the data collection and analysis capacity of States to ensure that data and information determined necessary for implementation of section 616 of IDEA are collected, analyzed, and accurately reported to the Secretary. It also requires the Secretary to provide TA, where needed, to improve the capacity of States to meet the data collection requirements, which include the data collection and reporting requirements in sections 616 and 618 of IDEA. In addition, the Secretary may use funds reserved under section 611(c) of IDEA to administer and carry out other services and activities to improve data collection, coordination, quality, and use under Parts B and C of the IDEA. Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024, Public Law 118-47, Division D, Title III, 136 Stat. 138, 460 (2024). The Data Center will provide TA to help States to (1) effectively and efficiently respond to IDEA-related data submission requirements; (2) improve the analyses of IDEA data to the extent these analyses respond to critical policy questions that will facilitate program improvement and compliance accountability; and (3) comply with applicable privacy requirements, including the privacy and confidentiality requirements under IDEA and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. 1232g) and its regulations at 34 CFR part 99.[1] Assistance Listing Number (ALN): 84.373Y. Assistance Listing Number (ALN) 84.373Y. [1] The Center must review the need for additional resources (with input from the Department) and disseminate existing resources developed by the Department, such as: (1) IDEA/FERPA Crosswalk (Surprenant Miller, August 24, 2022); and (2) Data sharing agreement template (at https://dasycenter.org/us-dept-ed-shares-idea-data-sharing-mou-template/.

NLM wishes to accelerate the availability of and access to secure, complete data sets and computational models that can serve as the basis of transformative biomedical discoveries by improving the speed and scope of the curation processes.NLM wishes to accelerate the availability of and access to secure, complete data sets and computational models that can serve as the basis of transformative biomedical discoveries by improving the speed and scope of the curation processes. This Funding Opportunity Announcement is focused on automating curation of biomedical digital assets in support of Goal 1. Objective 1.1 of the NLM Strategic Plan 2017-2027: An important research direction will develop strategies for curation at scale." The ability to re-use, integrate or add to existing data sets will open new avenues of opportunity and can speed discoveries that will improve health. But this promise will go unrealized without advances in automated and autonomous curation. Objective 1.2: Automatic, autonomous curation strategies will allow for operational efficiency as well as accelerate the speed of discovery Digital curation involves characterizing, annotating, managing, and preserving digital assets such as research data sets, computational and other types of models, reusable visualization tools, and other digital assets. Proficient curation of digital assets maximizes their reuse potential, mitigates risk of obsolescence, reduces the likelihood that their long-term value will diminish or be lost, and helps assure reproducibility of research. The evolving digital ecosystem supports data-driven biomedical discovery by providing access to large quantities of biomedical and health-related data, to computational models and to open source software and code. The scope, scale and heterogeneity of digital data alone are vast, ranging from genome sequences to biomedical images, from observational health findings to environmental measurements, from family histories to sensor readings from personal trackers. As the amount and complexity of digital assets continue to grow, manual curation will not scale to meet future needs. At the same time, as researchers make research data sets, models and other tools available for new uses or re-analysis, it is important to minimize duplication and simplify the process of finding, managing, visualizing and mining all types of digital assets. To help researchers who want to find, interoperate and use these data sources to make new discoveries, and to share their findings so others can build upon them, the purpose of this funding announcement is to encourage applications for new approaches that (1) increase the speed and assure quality and security of storage techniques, retrieval strategies, annotation methods, data standards, visualization tools and other advanced data management approaches and (2) improve our ability to make biomedical data and other digital research assets findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR).
