The intended outcome of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to advance efforts for a nationally Integrated Food Safety System (IFSS) by supporting Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS), Food Protection Task Force (FPTF) programs, Dietary Supplement (DS) programs, and special projects. For the purposes of this NOFO, the term state encompasses all eligible organizations as defined in Section 3. MFRPS Development or Maintenance: The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) section is to advance efforts for a nationally Integrated Food Safety System (IFSS) by assisting state manufactured food regulatory programs to achieve and maintain conformance with the most current version of the Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS). The MFRPS are intended to ensure that state manufactured food regulatory programs implement a high-quality regulatory program through the development and maintenance of a regulatory framework that builds on and emphasizes mutual reliance with all programs. Also, the program standards are intended to enhance food safety by establishing a uniform basis for measuring and improving the performance of manufactured food regulatory programs in the United States. Conformance with these program standards will help federal and state programs better direct their regulatory activities at reducing foodborne illness hazards in plants that manufacture, process, pack, or hold foods. Food Protection Task Force (FPTF): The purpose of this funding option is to establish and/or support a Food Protection Task Force (FPTF) with diverse membership representative of stakeholders across the state that is responsible for promoting the integration of an efficient statewide human and animal food (HAF) protection system that addresses state and region-specific needs and that maximize the protection of the public health. These efforts include: establishing a food safety/protection network of subject matter experts, fostering educational opportunities, developing replicable resources and systematically fostering communication, education, outreach, cooperation and collaboration within the states among federal, state, local, tribal and territorial HAF protection, public health, agriculture, and regulatory agencies, industry, academia, and consumers to initiate and/or support HAF protection activities to improve public health. A strong FPTF can also help improve human and animal food emergency surveillance, response, and post-response systems by focusing on preparedness, building strong communication channels, and establishing relationships with key players before food-related incidents occur. Dietary Supplements: The goal of this funding option is to facilitate the development of state driven dietary supplement regulatory framework and programs. The overall objective of this funding opportunity is to advance the adoption and implementation of the cGMPs for Dietary Supplements Rule codified at 21 CFR Part 111. Specifically, this track will provide funding support for dietary supplement training and program development activities. Special Projects: The purpose of this funding option is to develop and implement special projects that support innovation and integration in a IFSS using the MFRPS framework. This track will support other emerging food safety priorities that develop over the lifespan of the project. State programs will be expected to share project deliverables and resources developed with other programs.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has played a crucial role in providing an alternative bioequivalence (BE) approach for generic orally inhaled drug products (OIDPs), in addition to comparative clinical endpoint or pharmacodynamic BE studies, as a relatively cost- and time-efficient complement to benchtop and clinical experiments that has been widely used in developing and assessing generic inhaler devices. However, despite the advances in the power of modern computers, there are still some bottlenecks in using CFD due to computational time, limited grid resolution, pre- and post-processing of large simulation data sets, model parameter estimations, and uncertainty quantifications. Machine learning (ML) has been gaining more attention as a potential tool to alleviate such limitations that arise in CFD. The purpose of this grant is to develop a methodology to integrate ML with CFD models of OIDPs to promote alternative BE studies to enhance and accelerate the development and approval of generic OIDPs.

Reissue of RFA-MH-20-128 This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications to develop standards that describe experimental protocols that are being conducted as part of the BRAIN Initiative. It is expected that applications will solicit community input at all stages of the process. It is recommended that the first step of standard development will involve sharing data between different key groups in the experimental community in order to ensure that the developing standard will cover the way that all of those groups are collecting data. The developed standard is expected to be made widely available.
