Integration and Coordination Center for the Common Fund Data Ecosystem (U54 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-RM-23-002 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to invite applications for an Integration and Coordination Center (ICC) for the Common Fund Data Ecosystem (CFDE) that will help to build internal cohesion within the program. Award(s) made through this FOA will support CFDE by integrating relevant Common Fund (CF) programs within CFDE, coordinating across other CFDE centers, helping CF programs develop data sustainability plans, and ensuring continuous improvement through an annual evaluation program. The awardee(s) will work collaboratively with each other and other participating components of the CFDE to integrate and coordinate activities across the ecosystem. The end products of CFDE will be a thriving ecosystem that enables the research community to reuse CF data and resources for discoveries and new purposes.

CCRP Initiative: NIH Countermeasures Against Chemical Threats (CounterACT) Translational Exploratory/Developmental Research Projects (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity PAR-23-139 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) supports translational exploratory/developmental research that directly advances the discovery of novel treatment strategies, i.e., medical countermeasures (MCMs), that address serious morbidity and mortality after acute exposure to highly toxic chemical threats. Chemical threats are toxic compounds that could be used in a terrorist attack or accidentally released from industrial production, storage, or shipping. They include traditional chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, pesticides, and ultra-potent synthetic (UPS) opioids. This FOA supports translational research that includes, but is not limited to, preliminary efficacy and/or early preclinical development studies towards discovery and validation of novel molecular entities or biologics as candidate MCMs. In addition to novel agents, new treatment strategies may involve repurposing already FDA-approved products or combinations of interventions based on established mechanisms of action. Projects supported by this FOA are expected to generate preliminary data that would facilitate the development of competitive applications for more extensive support from the NIH CounterACT Cooperative Agreement program and/or other related initiatives.

Limited Competition: Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Bioinformatics Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-RM-23-008 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This limited competition FOA invites applications for a Bioinformatics Center to serve as part of the Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Consortium (MoTrPAC; http://commonfund.nih.gov/MolecularTransducers). The overall goals of the Bioinformatics Center are to provide a database and associated tools for storage and integration of clinical physiological and metabolic data along with multiple types of chemical analysis data derived through metabolomics, proteomics, genomics, transcriptomics, or similar technologies. The Bioinformatics Center coordinates implementation of data and ontology-based metadata standards, provides tools for analysis and visualization of data, provides rapid access to accumulated data and tools through the use of cloud-based computing, and leads data analysis of the diverse datasets submitted by other MoTrPAC elements.

Limited Competition: Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Chemical Analysis Sites (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-RM-23-009 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to invite applications for Chemical Analysis Sites to serve as part of the Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Consortium (MoTrPAC; http://commonfund.nih.gov/MolecularTransducers). This is a limited competition FOA and open only to the previously funded grantees of MoTrPAC Chemical Analysis sites through RFA-RM-15-010 and RFA-RM-15-011. Awards made through this FOA will support participation of grantees in the MoTrPAC consortium activities and the continuation of the analysis of tissues collected by the MoTrPAC consortium. Awardees will conduct omics analysis of tissues collected from human participants undergoing a physical activity intervention, generate well curated datasets, contribute that data to a public consortium database, and participate in the data analysis to generate molecular fingerprints of candidate transducers of physical activity.
