The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to invite applications for a Data Coordinating Center to support the work of the research projects funded under the Stillbirth Research Consortium described in the companion announcement NOT-HD-24-009. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants additional time to develop meaningful collaborations, interdisciplinary teams, and prepare responsive applications. The NOFO is expected to be published in Summer 2024 with an expected application due date in Fall 2024. This NOFO will utilize the UM2 activity code. Details of the planned NOFO are provided below.

This funding opportunity supports U.S.-based institutions in planning and implementing clinical trials aimed at improving treatments for dental, oral, and craniofacial conditions.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations focused on improving mental health and care engagement for individuals living with HIV, particularly those facing barriers to treatment.

This funding opportunity is designed to help organizations provide essential eye exams and glasses to kindergarten through third-grade students in Ohio who face barriers to accessing vision care, ensuring they receive timely support for their educational success.

The purpose of this program is to improve access to evidence-based, timely, and culturally relevant maternal mental health and substance use (behavioral health) intervention and treatment by strengthening community referral pathways. Recipients will be expected to collaborate with pregnancy and postpartum healthcare organizations, refer individuals in need of behavioral health care to the appropriate entities, and provide short-term mental health and substance use services to individuals who cannot access care.

This funding opportunity supports educational projects that preserve and share the stories of Veterans buried in cemeteries, engaging students and communities in understanding their histories.

The "Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet Clinical Network Hub" grant aims to support the coordination unit for clinical trials focused on preventing and intervening early in type 1 diabetes, by improving communication, outreach, and developing new strategies for better screening, recruitment, and retention of participants.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for innovative breast cancer research projects aimed at preventing the disease, understanding its recurrence, or improving treatment, targeting both early-stage and more developed studies from a range of eligible organizations and researchers.

This funding opportunity supports organizations in developing career development and mentoring programs for early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds who are underrepresented in the biomedical and behavioral sciences.

This funding opportunity supports research using human-derived ex vivo models to explore how HIV interacts with addictive substances, focusing on their effects on the brain and immune system.

This funding opportunity supports research on how inflammasome activation affects neurocognitive disorders and immune function in individuals with HIV and substance use disorders, encouraging studies that explore the interactions between these factors.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for research projects that explore new treatments and interventions for Alzheimer’s Disease, related dementias, and age-related cognitive decline, encouraging innovative approaches and pilot studies to improve future clinical trials.

This program provides funding to Connecticut local governments and non-profits to improve urban forests, focusing on preserving trees and expanding tree canopy in underserved communities.

This funding opportunity supports partnerships between master's and Ph.D. institutions to enhance research training for diverse master's students, helping them transition into biomedical Ph.D. programs.

The AARP Foundation is offering capacity building grants ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 for a period of 2 years to organizations that aim to enhance their resources and services to better connect adults aged 50 and above to health essentials programs, with a preference for projects serving communities facing systemic barriers and economic instability.

This grant provides funding for interdisciplinary research teams to explore the neural and behavioral aspects of benign urological conditions, aiming to improve understanding and treatment of these diseases.

This FOA will support integrated, interdisciplinary research teams that focus on examining dynamic circuit functions related to behavior, using advanced and innovative technologies. The FOA will support programs with a necessarily-synergistic, team science approach. Awards will be made for 5 years, with a possibility of one competing renewal. Applications should incorporate overarching principles of circuit function in the context of specific neural systems underlying sensation, perception, emotion, motivation, cognition, decision-making, motor control, communication, or homeostasis. Applications should incorporate theory-/model-driven experimental design and should offer predictive models as deliverables. Applications should seek to understand circuits of the central nervous system by systematically controlling stimuli and/or behavior while actively recording and/or manipulating relevant dynamic patterns of neural activity and by measuring the resulting behaviors and/or perceptions. Applications are expected to employ approaches guided by specified theoretical constructs, and are encouraged to employ quantitative, mechanistic models where appropriate. Applications will be required to manage their data and analysis methods in a framework that will be developed and used in the proposed U19 project and exchanged with other BRAIN U19 awardees for further refinement and development. Model systems, including the possibility of multiple species ranging from invertebrates to humans, can be employed and should be appropriately justified. Programs should employ multi-component teams of research expertise including neurobiologists, statisticians, physicists, mathematicians, engineers, computer scientists, and data scientists, as appropriate - that seek to cross boundaries of interdisciplinary collaboration. Applicants proposing to include human subjects with invasive neural recording must apply to the companion FOA, RFA-NS-XX-XXX.

This grant provides funding to organizations that offer transitional housing and support services for victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, helping them secure stable housing and rebuild their lives.
