Find Funding Opportunities

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Networks Laboratory Centers (LCs). Each LC will be responsible for providing a framework for laboratory leadership, structure and activities that contribute to the development and execution of the laboratory elements of NIAID HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Networks research agendas.

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Networks Statistical and Data Management Centers (SDMCs). The SDMCs will be responsible for the statistical and data management leadership and coordination critical to the NIAID HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Networks.

This purpose of this FOA is to identify risk factors for dementia progression in PDD. Applicants must have access to well-characterized populations of PDD patients that have been followed longitudinally that they can continue to follow with clinical assessments and biospecimen collection until autopsy. Research should propose to identify clinical, pathological and/or biospecimen factors that predict which patients will develop cognitive impairment and/or dementia.

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for a HIV/AIDS Adult Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network Leadership and Operations Center (LOC). The LOC will be responsible for the overall administrative and scientific leadership for the HIV/AIDS Adult Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network.

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages research to develop, characterize and validate innovative mammalian models that recapitulate molecular, cellular, neuropathological, behavioral and cognitive hallmarks of the Alzheimers Disease-Related Dementias (ADRD), including Lewy body dementia (LBD), vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID), frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) and mixed etiology dementias (MED). Models will be expected to exhibit a broad range of features characteristic of the dementia disorder being modeled, including a mid- to late-life onset consistent with the human disorder, multiple age-dependent neuropathological processes and the associated behavioral, cognitive and/or physiological abnormalities. For each proposed mammalian model, a relevant suite of phenotypes that inform human ADRD disease progression and mechanisms should be characterized across the full life span or, for longer-living mammalian models, throughout the disease-relevant stages of adulthood. The goal of this FOA is to establish multi-dimensional mammalian models for ADRD to serve as tools to interrogate molecular disease mechanisms and identify therapeutic targets.

The Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) announces the availability of administrative supplements to support research highlighting the impact of sex/gender influences in human health and illness, including basic, preclinical, clinical, translational, and behavioral studies. Of special interest are studies relevant to understanding the significance of biological sex on cells and tissue explants; comparative studies of male and female tissues, organ systems and physiological systems; sex-based comparisons of pathophysiology, biomarkers, gene expression, clinical presentation and prevention and treatment of diseases. The most robust experimental designs include consideration of both sex and gender; therefore, applications proposing to investigate the influence of both sex and gender factors are highly encouraged. The proposed research must address at least one objective from Goals 1 through 5 of the new 2019-2023 Trans-NIH Strategic Plan for Women's Health Research "Advancing Science for the Health of Women".

The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The over-arching goal of this R25 program is to support educational activities that foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral and clinical research and its implications. To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this FOA will support creative educational activities with a primary focus on research experiences for high school or undergraduate students or science teachers during the summer academic break. The proposed program needs to fit within the mission of the participating IC that the application is being submitted to and should not have a general STEM focus (see below and Table of IC-Specific Information and Points of Contact)

The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study is collecting data on health and mental health, cognitive function, substance use, cultural and environmental factors, and brain structure and function from youth starting when they are 9-10 years-old repeatedly for 10 years and makes that data available to the scientific community through the NIMH Data Archive. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage applications proposing the analysis of this public use dataset to increase knowledge of adolescent health and development. More information about the ABCD Study may be found on the ABCD Study web page (www.abcdstudy.org).

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to encourage collaborations between the life and physical sciences that: 1) apply a multidisciplinary bioengineering approach to the solution of a biomedical problem; and 2) integrate, optimize, validate, translate or otherwise accelerate the adoption of promising tools, methods and techniques for a specific research or clinical problem in basic, translational, or clinical science and practice. An application may propose design-directed, developmental, discovery-driven, or hypothesis-driven research and is appropriate for small teams applying an integrative approach to increase our understanding of and solve problems in biological, clinical or translational science.
