Grants for Public and State controlled institutions of higher education - Education

Purpose of Award: U.S. Mission Poland invites proposals from potential partners in Poland to develop projects to build a network of Polish educators, potentially including secondary school teachers, school administrators, public education officials, and museum and cultural institution staff, and to provide continued activities to empower those individuals as they enhance Holocaust and human rights education programs at their home institutions. This project would be announced in connection with U.S. remembrance of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and the end of WWII. Priority Program Area: Accurate education about the history of the Holocaust, teaching the Holocaust and human rights in context, countering antisemitism and other forms of discrimination, and other forms of Holocaust memorialization or remembrance. Participants and Audiences: Proposals should describe both the primary and secondary audiences for the program, including anticipated numbers to be reached. Primary audiences are those who will participate directly in the program, while secondary audiences are those who will be reached by the projects primary audiences as a result of their participation. (For example, a workshop for educators would have teachers as the primary audience and the students in their classrooms as the secondary audience benefiting from the teachers professional development.) All project participants in (the primary audience for) the activities must be citizens or residents of Poland living and working in Poland, potentially including, but not limited to, secondary school teachers, school administrators, ministry of education officials, and public historians who work in museums and cultural institutions supporting secondary school or tertiary history education in their communities. The following types ofprograms are not eligible for funding: Programs relating to partisan political activity; Legal services and direct physical and mental health services provided to individuals (legal guidance and/or psychological, social or emotional development activities offered in a group setting may be supported by the grant); Construction programs; Programs that support specific religious activities; Fund-raising campaigns; Lobbying for specific legislation or programs; Academic or scientific research (note that curriculum development is an eligible activity); Programs intended primarily for the growth or institutional development of the organization; and Individual travel to attend a conference and/or courses at any educational institution.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) solicits applications for one or more Data Coordinating Centers (DCCs) to support BRAIN CONNECTS, a networked consortium of Comprehensive Centers and Specialized Projects funded under RFA-NS-22-047, RFA-NS-22-048, and RFA-NS-22-049. The goals of these awards are to develop the research capacity and technical capabilities for comprehensive brain-wide connectivity mapping in mouse, human, and non-human primate (NHP). BRAIN CONNECTS projects will collect and process unprecedented volumes of anatomical data by scaling up cutting-edge acquisition modalities and analysis methods, to demonstrate the feasibility of collecting, reconstructing, analyzing, integrating, disseminating, and interpreting connectivity maps from entire brains. The resulting feasibility data from these awards are expected to inform NIH decisions on program continuation in a potential subsequent five-year funding period for production of brain-wide wiring diagrams. NIH expects to fund one or more BRAIN CONNECTS DCCs, which will collaborate with CONNECTS data generating projects to (1) coordinate activities of the BRAIN CONNECTS Network, (2) develop and harmonize common data processing pipelines, (3) integrate and disseminate data analytic tools and capabilities, (4) establish a unified knowledge base for connectivity data of diverse modalities, and (5) organize and implement outreach and engagement to the wider research community and the general public. Awards will be integrated into the BRAIN CONNECTS Network as a coordinated effort aimed at developing the ability to generate wiring diagrams spanning entire brains across multiple scales and species.

The Pfizer Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) Fellowship Grant is designed to bolster the number of fellowship programs focused on hematologists who specialize in the treatment of adults with sickle cell disease. This initiative is part of Pfizer Global Medical Grants' broader strategy to support healthcare community-led initiatives that enhance patient outcomes in critical areas of unmet medical need, aligning with Pfizer’s own medical and scientific strategies. The grant aims to enhance the quality of care for sickle cell patients by funding institutions that provide comprehensive training and research opportunities in the field. Specifically, the program supports both established and newly developed fellowship programs that include a robust curriculum in clinical practice, independent research, and education to deepen the scientific understanding of SCD. The fellowship is structured to foster an environment of expert mentorship and significant independent research opportunities. Research activities encouraged under this grant include observational studies and outcomes research that focus on the disease itself, screening tools, and their impact on patient health improvement. Grant funding is set at a maximum of $100,000 for a one-year fellowship, aiming to cover direct costs associated with the fellow’s training and research but explicitly excluding overhead or indirect costs. This financial support underlines Pfizer's commitment to advancing healthcare by investing directly in the development of professionals who are dedicated to improving patient outcomes in the field of sickle cell disease. Key to the grant’s operational framework is compliance with stringent regulatory requirements, including the U.S. Physician Payments Sunshine Act. This act mandates detailed reporting of all transfers of value to ensure transparency and maintain public trust in healthcare practices. The fellowship’s funding structure is designed to be transparent, with specific provisions to prevent any of the funds from benefiting Pfizer's business interests directly or indirectly. Overall, the Pfizer SCD Fellowship embodies a strategic effort to cultivate talent and advance knowledge in a critical area of healthcare, ensuring that the supported programs maintain high standards of integrity and contribute significantly to the field's body of knowledge and patient care practices.
