This grant opportunity, offered by Sanofi, aims to address gaps and provide educational resources related to the diagnosis and treatment of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). CIDP is a heterogeneous, immune-mediated neuropathy characterized by demyelination of motor and sensory nerves, leading to various clinical challenges. Sanofi seeks proposals for educational programs, particularly those that can effectively recap information from the 2024 Peripheral Nerve Society Annual Meeting and offer independent medical education (IME) activities. Programs should focus on key evidence-based data and offer recommendations to healthcare providers dealing with CIDP, particularly in areas such as treatment options, clinical challenges, and the role of complement therapeutics in CIDP care.

The CHIPS Research and Development Program (CHIPS R) aims to advance the development of semiconductor technologies and to enhance the competitiveness of the U.S. semiconductor industry. This is the first Notice of Funding Opportunity under this program. It seeks applications for new research and development (R) activities to establish and accelerate domestic capacity for advanced packaging substrates and substrate materials, a key technology for producing microelectronics systems. This NOFO seeks applications for research and development activities that will establish and accelerate domestic capacity for advanced packaging substrates and substrate materials. Through this NOFO, the NAPMP program seeks to achieve the following objectives: (1) Accelerate domestic R&D and innovation in advanced packaging materials and substrates; (2) Translate domestic materials and substrate innovation into U.S. manufacturing, such that these technologies are available to U.S. manufacturers and customers, including to significantly benefit U.S. economic and national security; (3) Support the establishment of a robust, sustainable, domestic capacity for advanced packaging materials and substrate R&D, prototyping, commercialization, and manufacturing; and (4) Promote a skilled and diverse pipeline of workers for a sustainable domestic advanced packaging industry. NAPMP plans to release subsequent NOFOs relevant to other research areas and for an Advanced Packaging Piloting Facility (APPF), where successful development efforts will be transitioned and validated for scaled transition to U.S. manufacturing. The APPF is expected to be a key facility for technology transfer to high-volume manufacturing.

This funding opportunity is designed to support research initiatives that enhance the understanding and management of Atlantic bluefin tuna populations, particularly through collaboration with international partners involved in their conservation.

The DOD Pancreatic Cancer, Focused Pilot Award is a grant that supports innovative research projects aimed at improving the quality of life for pancreatic cancer patients, with a focus on areas such as healthcare access, mental health, psycho-social issues, nutrition, education, and symptom management.

DS supports basic research that increases our understanding of cognitive, linguistic, social, cultural and biological processes related to human development across the lifespan. Research supported by this program will add to our knowledge of the underlying developmental processes that support social, cognitive and behavioral functioning, thereby illuminating ways for individuals to live productive lives as members of society. DS supports research that addresses developmental processes within the domains of cognitive, social, emotional and motor development across the lifespan by working with any appropriate populations for the topics of interest including infants, children, adolescents, adults and non-human animals. The program also supports research investigating factors that affect developmental change, including family, peers, school, community, culture, media, physical, genetic and epigenetic influences. Additional priorities include research that incorporates multidisciplinary, multi-method, microgenetic and longitudinal approaches; develops new methods, models and theories for studying development; includes participants from a range of ethnicities, socioeconomic backgrounds and cultures; and integrates different processes (e.g., memory, emotion, perception, cognition), levels of analysis (e.g., behavioral, social, neural) and time scales. The budgets and durations of supported projects vary widely and are greatly influenced by the nature of the project. Investigators should focus on innovative, potentially transformative research plans and then develop a budget to support those activities, rather than starting with a budget number and working up to that value. While there are no specific rules about budget limitations, a typical project funded through the DS program is approximately three years in duration with a total cost budget, including both direct and indirect costs, between $100,000 and $200,000 per year. Interested applicants are urged to explore the NSF awards database for the DS program to review examples of awards that have been made. The DS program also accepts proposals for workshops and small conferences. These typically have total cost budgets, including direct and indirect costs, of approximately $35,000.Prospective PIs are encouraged to send a 1-page summary of the proposed activities to the DS program directors in advance of submitting a conference/workshop proposal to ascertain its fit to the program. In addition to consulting the NSF awards database, it is often useful for interested applicants to submit (via email) a summary of no more than one page so that a program director can advise the investigator on the fit of the project for DS prior to preparation of a full proposal. New investigators are encouraged to solicit assistance in the preparation of their project proposals via consultation with senior researchers in their area, pre-submission review by colleagues and attendance at symposia and events at professional conferences geared towards educating investigators seeking federal funding. The Developmental Sciences Program is always interested in identifying new reviewers. Potential reviewers should have a Ph.D. in psychology or a related field and have a demonstrated area of expertise relevant to developmental science. Individuals interested in reviewing for the program should send a short description of their areas of expertise (two sentences) and their CV to a Developmental Sciences program director.
