The "Enhancing NIDCD's Extramural Workforce Diversity through Research Experiences" grant aims to fund educational activities that inspire individuals from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to pursue careers or further studies in biomedical and behavioral sciences research.

Funding Opportunity PurposeThe full-scale Diversity Centers for Genome Research (DCGR) program aims to establish Genomic Research Centers at Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) as defined in Part 2, section III of the FOA. The MSIs must have a mission to serve historically underrepresented populations in biomedical research that award doctorate degrees in the health professions or the sciences related to health, and have received an average of less than $50 million per year in NIH support and less than $25 million per year of R01 total cost of NIH support for the past three fiscal years. The purpose of this FOA is to call for applications for UG3/UH3 cooperative agreements to support the development and planning for a multi-investigator, interdisciplinary team to develop administrative, genomic workforce development and community engagement cores and 2-3 interrelated, innovative genomic research projects that address one or more critical issues in genomics including: genomic technology and methods development; genome structure; genome function; genomics of disease; use and impact of genomic information in clinical care; genomic data science and computational genomics, ethical, legal, and social implications of genomic research (ELSI); and/or genomics and health equity. The outcome of the development and feasibility studies will be fully developed plans to carry out all activities of a full-scale Diversity Center for Genome Research. Along with its scientific goals, the DCGR should expand the pool of diverse genomic scientists, clinician scientists, and researchers who can perform innovative genomics research by providing didactic, practicum and research activities and experiences that are aligned with the research projects.

This funding opportunity supports minority-serving institutions in developing innovative products and systems that improve the lives of individuals with disabilities, particularly those with the greatest support needs.

This funding opportunity supports innovative projects that develop new technologies for recording and modulating neural activity in the brain, aimed at advancing neuroscience research and understanding how the nervous system functions.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the development of Clinical Outcome Assessments (COA) for Substance Use Disorders (SUD). The COA development plan is expected to progress into the FDA drug development tool qualification program. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) utilizes the UG3/UH3Phased Innovation Awards Cooperative Agreement grant mechanism that includes two phases. The applications responding to this NOFO should contain a COA development plan that will cover both UG3 and UH3 phases. In the first 2-year UG3 phasethe project must have a set of operational milestones to be completed by the end of this period. Once NIDA program has evaluated the progress of the UG3 phase and determined that the UG3 phase has been successfully completed, it transitions to the UH3 phase to be funded for three additional years.The goal of this NOFO is to expand the armamentarium of COA that are FDA qualified as drug development tool (DDT) in the context of use (COI) of a SUD. Achieving this goal will greatly facilitate the development of treatments for SUDs. 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. Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the NOFO instructions carefully and view the available PEDP guidance material.
