This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages applications that propose to develop studies that will lead to a broad understanding of the natural history of disorders that already do or could potentially benefit from early identification by newborn screening. A comprehensive understanding of the natural history of a disorder has been identified as a necessary element to facilitate appropriate interventions for infants identified by newborn screening. By defining the sequence and timing of the onset of symptoms and complications of a disorder, a valuable resource will be developed for the field. In addition, for some disorders, specific genotype-phenotype correlations may allow prediction of the clinical course, and for other disorders, identification of modifying genetic, epigenetic, or environmental factors will enhance an understanding of the clinical outcomes for an individual with such a condition. Comprehensive data on natural history will facilitate the field;apos;s ability to: 1) accurately diagnose the disorder; 2) understand the genetic and clinical heterogeneity and phenotypic expression of the disorder; 3) identify underlying mechanisms related to basic defects; 4) potentially prevent, manage, and treat symptoms and complications of the disorder; and 5) provide children and their families with needed support and predictive information about the disorder.

Award Type: Cooperative AgreementAssistance Listing Number: 20.200, Highway Research Development Questions: Submit Questions by 3:00pm ET on 4/17/2024 to: Freida.Byrd@dot.gov and Hector.Santamaria@dot.gov Application Due Date: Applications Due by 3:00pm ET on 5/20/2024 via Grants.gov (see Section D). The Federal Highway Administrations (FHWA) Accelerated Implementation and Deployment of Pavement Technologies (AIDPT) Program was established more than a decade ago under the Moving Ahead for Progress in 21st Century Act (Pub. L. 112-141). Since that time, the program has continued under Fixing Americas Surface Transportation Act (Pub. L. 114-94) and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (Pub. L. 117-58). The program encourages highway agencies to adopt and implement new technologies proven to save money, enhance safety, improve performance and quality, increase efficiency, reduce delay, and enhance road user satisfaction.The purpose of this funding opportunity and planned cooperative agreement (Agreement) is to stimulate, facilitate, and expedite the deployment and rapid adoption of new and innovative technologies relating to the design, specification, production, testing, control, construction, investigation, operation, and impacts of concrete pavements. The Agreement will support public agencies by helping to increase the knowledge related to concrete pavements and concrete materials. The proposed project is a cooperative effort between the FHWA and the Recipient to improve the quality and performance of concrete pavements. Products will include, but not be limited to, implementation plans, market analyses, training tools, case studies, reports and analyses, and supporting stakeholder engagement via conference presentations, webinars, workshops, peer exchanges, videos, and technical assistance to public agencies. To accomplish and deliver these products, it is anticipated the Recipient will leverage engaging subject matter experts and make products available and accessible to a wide-ranging audience. This effort will leverage the unique technology capabilities and facilities of the Recipient with FHWAs mission.The goals of this funding opportunity and planned Agreement are to promote the deployment and rapid adoption of new and innovative materials, design and construction procedures, specifications, practices, and methods by which the concrete pavement can realize improved pavement performance and extended pavement life while integrating sustainability.

HUD is funding studies to improve knowledge of housing-related health and safety hazards and to improve or develop new hazard assessment and control methods, with a focus on lead and other key residential health and safety hazards. HUD is especially interested in applications that will advance our knowledge of priority healthy homes issues by addressing important gaps in science related to the accurate and efficient identification of hazards and the implementation of cost-effective hazard mitigation. This includes studies using implementation sciences in identifying specific conditions under which residential environmental hazard interventions, that have been shown to be effective in specific housing types and residential settings, can be assessed in other contexts.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds to develop innovative cancer research projects and enhance workforce diversity in the field.

The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications that propose to establish a national Open Measurement Coordinating Network for Non-Pharmacological Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and AD-related Dementias (ADRD) Primary Prevention Trials. The Network will serve as a centralized hub for developing, validating, standardizing, and disseminating measures and measurement methods for AD/ADRD primary prevention trials. It will incorporate measures and measurement methods across neuropsychological, biomarker, and functional domains to meet the goal of primary prevention of AD/ADRD centered around brain health equity. Brain health equity is the fair distribution of brain health determinants, outcomes, and resources within and between segments of the population, regardless of social standing. Measures and methods of interest will test outcomes and mechanisms of action in settings customized for individuals with different needs and linked to real-world function. Applications must explain how the platform will meet evolving community needs and partner with other NIA-funded programs. Applications must also describe activities that will achieve the following objectives: Develop an organizational and governance structure to support the administration, innovation, and dissemination functions of the Network. Propose activities to establish a framework that will facilitate the development of innovative strategies for standardization and use of methods and measures across NIA-supported projects and support activities for the discovery and development of innovative and novel measures and data. Disseminate Network resources and products to the broader AD/ADRD research community. Ensure that all measures and methods development and validation occurs in a racially, ethnically, geographically, and diagnostically diverse set of participants, including members of NIH-defined Health Disparity Populations. This also includes establishing the acceptability and feasibility of using the proposed instruments in both cognitively normal individuals and persons living with cognitive impairment (PLWCI), including subjective cognitive decline. NIA is particularly interested in proposals that advance equity for populations disproportionately impacted by AD/ADRD. For example, Black and Hispanic Americans have a higher prevalence of AD/ADRD compared to non-Hispanic White Americans. Resources, including measurement instruments, methods, algorithms, code, documentation, and normative data will enable other, future measures and methods development projects that support AD/ADRD primary prevention research needs. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. The NOFO is expected to be published in early 2024 with an expected application due date in Spring/Summer 2024. This NOFO will utilize the U24 activity code.

The NICHD Small Research Grant Program (R03 Clinical Trial Required) supports clinical trials that fall within the NICHD mission.
