The purpose of the Radiation Exposure Screening and Education Program is to improve the health outcomes and quality of life for populations at increased risk for the development of radiogenic cancers and/or disease resulting from exposure to radioactive materials through uranium mine industry work or fallout from nuclear arms testing. The United States conducted 227 above-ground and 828 below-ground nuclear weapons tests between July 1945 and November 1962. Many of the above-ground tests released radioactive material into the atmosphere. That material reached the ground as nuclear fallout. The dangers of radiation exposure were unknown at the time. Workers did not receive protection. People who lived near the test sites were not warned of potential dangers or told to evacuate. Workers and residents had radiation exposure from touching fallout on the ground, breathing polluted air, eating polluted foods, and drinking polluted water. People exposed to radiation generated by the nuclear weapons tests are at risk for certain cancers and other serious health problems.

This funding opportunity supports collaborative research initiatives focused on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias in low- and middle-income countries, encouraging partnerships between local researchers and U.S. scientists to build research capacity and develop innovative prevention and management strategies.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for organizations to develop and implement strategies that improve health equity and reduce health disparities among underserved women and girls, particularly those from racial and ethnic minority backgrounds.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity Announcement (NOFO) invites applications to develop and maintain a (NSC3). The goal of the NSC3 is to provide logistical and organization support of the NSC. Applicants should be familiar with Nathan Shock Centers (NSC) activities, but they do not need to be part of an NSC. Major activities of the proposed NSC3 will include improving visibility of the NSC nationally and internationally, improving collaboration and coordination among NSC, enhancing NSC training activities, facilitating the sharing of resources, and interacting with NIA and NSC to develop strategies and plans for further development. The successful application will include a plan to improve transparency and the interactions of NSC with the research community. It should also leverage existing bioinformatics resources. The NSC3 director will be a participant in the NIA's Research Centers Collaborative Network.

This grant provides funding for researchers to develop and validate new diagnostic tools and treatment measures for Functional Neurological Disorders, aiming to improve clinical trial readiness and patient care.

This funding opportunity supports researchers exploring brain activity related to mental health disorders through invasive techniques in human subjects, encouraging innovative approaches and interdisciplinary collaboration.

This funding opportunity supports research collaborations focused on improving health outcomes and reducing healthcare disparities related to chronic diseases among U.S. Hispanic/Latino populations and in Latin America.

This funding opportunity supports research to develop and test effective non-stimulant treatment strategies for adults with ADHD, aiming to improve mental health outcomes in diverse and under-resourced communities.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations and individuals focused on suicide prevention, enabling them to implement best practices and enhance resources for high-risk populations across the nation.

This grant provides funding to support early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds as they transition from mentored postdoctoral positions to independent faculty roles in biomedical research.
