Grants for State governments - Health

This funding opportunity supports postdoctoral researchers from underrepresented groups in cancer research as they transition to independent faculty positions, providing salary and research funding to help establish their own research programs.

This funding opportunity supports organizations that provide training for mental health paraprofessionals to enhance their skills in serving children and youth at risk for behavioral health issues.

This funding opportunity supports innovative clinical research to explore the brain mechanisms behind substance use disorders, targeting a wide range of researchers and institutions dedicated to addressing addiction challenges.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) Cutting-Edge Basic Research Award (CEBRA) is designed to foster highly innovative or conceptually creative research related to the etiology, pathophysiology, prevention, or treatment of substance use disorders (SUDs). It supports high-risk and potentially high-impact research that is underrepresented or not included in NIDA's current portfolio that has the potential to transform SUD research. The proposed research should: 1. develop, and/or adapt, revolutionary techniques or methods for addiction research or that show promising future applicability to SUD research; and /or 2. test an innovative and significant hypothesis for which there are scant precedent or preliminary data and which, if confirmed, would transform current thinking.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for researchers to analyze and integrate existing data to better understand cancer risk, prevention, and treatment outcomes, particularly focusing on innovative methodologies and addressing health disparities.

This funding opportunity supports clinical research projects that extend or enhance existing breast cancer studies, requiring collaboration with consumer advocates to improve outcomes for patients and the community.

This funding opportunity supports multidisciplinary research aimed at improving the understanding and treatment of asthma and allergic diseases, inviting applications from various institutions and organizations involved in clinical and translational research.

This grant provides funding to specialized clinics for collecting and analyzing long-term health data on individuals with spina bifida, aiming to improve care and health outcomes for patients of all ages.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research projects that explore how T-cells contribute to HIV infection and related brain complications, targeting researchers from various institutions and organizations.

This funding opportunity supports innovative educational projects that engage K-12 students and teachers in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, particularly targeting individuals from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds.

The purpose of the Paul Calabresi Career Development Award for Clinical Oncology (PCACO) is to increase the number of clinician-scientists trained in clinical and translational cancer research, and to promote their career development as cancer researchers. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) allows appointment of Scholars proposing to serve as the lead investigator of an independent clinical trial; or proposing a separate ancillary study to an existing trial; or proposing to gain research experience in a clinical trial led by another investigator, as part of their research and career development.

The Blueprint Neurotherapeutics Network for Biologics (BPN-Biologics) provides support for biologic-based therapeutic discovery and development, from lead optimization through phase I clinical testing. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) supports preclinical discovery and development of potential therapeutic Biotechnology Products and Biologics including, but not limited to, large biologic macromolecules, (e.g., proteins, antibodies, and peptides), gene-based therapies (i.e., oligonucleotide- and viral-based), cell therapies, and novel emerging therapies (e.g., microbial and microbiome therapies). Applicants will collaborate with NIH-funded consultants and can augment their project with NIH contract research organizations (CROs) that specialize in manufacturing, scaling, pharmacokinetics, toxicology, and Phase I clinical testing. BPN-Biologics awardee institutions retain their assignment of IP rights and gain assignment of IP rights from the BPN-Biologics contractors (and thereby control the patent prosecution and licensing negotiations) for biotherapeutic candidates developed in this program.

This funding opportunity supports small pilot projects that enhance understanding of the human virome, inviting collaborations from various organizations, including educational institutions and nonprofits, to develop innovative tools and methods for studying the interactions between viruses and human health.

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit applications proposing innovative transdisciplinary research that integrates approaches across social/cognitive neuroscience and other social sciences and will lead to a testable conceptual or computational model that provides mechanistic insights into social behavior and its relationships with the onset, trajectory and impact of Substance Use Disorders (SUD) and comorbidities. This NOFO is specifically soliciting applications proposing BESH research, referred to in NOT-OD-18-212 as prospective basic science studies involving human participants. These studies fall within the NIH definition of a clinical trial and also meet the definition of basic research. Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project.

The "Short Courses on Utilizing the NIH Stage Model to Develop Behavioral Interventions to Promote Healthy Aging" grant aims to fund the creation of short educational programs that teach researchers how to use the NIH Stage Model to develop non-drug interventions that encourage healthy aging and improve care for older adults.

The "NIA Research and Entrepreneurial Development Immersion (REDI): Mentored Entrepreneurial Career Development Award (K01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)" grant aims to provide financial support and entrepreneurial training to postdoctoral researchers and junior faculty in biomedical, social, or behavioral sciences, to foster their transition to research independence and potentially launch careers in industry, scientific business development, or academia, with a special focus on aging and Alzheimer's disease research.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to licensed organizations that offer long-term foster care and related services for unaccompanied minors without legal immigration status in the U.S.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for researchers to plan and prepare for clinical trials focused on infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases, ensuring they have the necessary resources and documentation for future trial implementation.

This funding opportunity supports research initiatives aimed at preventing community violence among youth and young adults, particularly those addressing racial and ethnic disparities, with grants available to governments, educational institutions, and non-profits.

This grant provides funding to educational institutions to create programs that support and encourage undergraduate students from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to pursue advanced degrees and careers in neuroscience research.
