Early Screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-19-120 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage research to develop and validate new screening methods for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) that can be used in infancy (0-12 months of age). This FOA uses the R01 grant mechanism, while RFA-MH-19-121 uses the R21 grant mechanism. Pilot or exploratory projects with minimal preliminary data, or those proposing early-stage feasibility testing, may be most appropriate for the R21 mechanism. Applicants with strong preliminary data proposing validation, refinement or final stages of testing of existing tools or methods may wish to use this FOA (R01 mechanism).

Medical Scientist Training Program (T32)
Funding Opportunity PAR-19-036 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) is to develop a diverse pool of highly trained physician-scientist leaders available to meet the needs of the Nations biomedical research agenda. Specifically, this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) provides support to eligible domestic institutions to develop and implement effective, evidence-based approaches to integrated dual-degree training leading to the award of both professional medical doctorate degrees and research doctorate degrees (Ph.D. or equivalent). With the dual qualification of rigorous scientific research and clinical practice, graduates will be equipped with the skills to develop research programs that accelerate the translation of research advances to the understanding, detection, treatment and prevention of human disease, and to lead the advancement of biomedical research. Areas of particular importance to NIGMS are the iterative optimization of MSTP training efficacy and efficiency, fostering the persistence of MSTP alumni in research careers, and enhancing the diversity of the physician-scientist workforce. NIGMS expects that the proposed research training programs will incorporate didactic, research, mentoring and career development elements to prepare trainees for careers that will have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the Nation.

Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) (T32)
Funding Opportunity PAR-19-037 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of the Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) program is to develop a diverse pool of scientists earning a Ph.D., who have the skills to successfully transition into careers in the biomedical research workforce. The long-term goal of the program is to enhance the diversity of biomedical research scientists in the Nations workforce. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) provides support to eligible, domestic institutions to develop and implement effective, evidence-based approaches to biomedical training and mentoring that will keep pace with the rapid evolution of the research enterprise. NIGMS expects that the proposed research training programs will incorporate didactic, research, and career development elements to prepare trainees for careers that will have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the Nation. This program is limited to applications from training programs at research-intensive institutions (i.e., those with a 3-year average of NIH Research Project Grant funding equal to or above $7.5 million total costs).

Reproductive Medicine Collaborative Clinical Trials Program (Collaborative R01 Clinical Trial Required)
Funding Opportunity RFA-HD-19-022 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. [Concept listed as CONCEPT-19-000.] The NICHD invites applications from investigators to participate in a multi-site program designed to conduct clinical trials to investigate problems in reproductive medicine, female and male infertility, and gynecologic and male reproductive system diseases and disorders that impact fertility. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is intended to support multi-site clinical research consortia devoted to evaluating safety and efficacy of new medications, treatments and technologies addressing questions in infertility. The objective of this program is to advance scientific research that facilitates diagnostic and therapeutic solutions to infertility by using common protocols in large scale human trials to obtain answers more rapidly than individual sites acting alone. This program benefits the public: infertile couples, individuals with reproductive diseases and disorders, and their health care providers. This FOA supports trials that require participation of two or more collaborative sites for completion of the study. Accordingly, the collaborating sites share a specific protocol across the sites and are organized to increase sample size, accelerate recruitment, or increase sample diversity and representation. Each site has its own Program Director/Principle Investigator (PD/PI) and each consortium includes a mechanism for coordination, implementation and monitoring of the protocol across sites, quality control, database management, statistical analysis, and reporting.

Administrative Supplements to Cancer Center Support Grants to Strengthen NCI-Supported Community Outreach Capacity through Community Health Educators of the National Outreach Network (Admin Suppl Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity PA-19-035 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), in partnership with the NCI Office of Cancer Centers (OCC), announces this opportunity to compete for administrative supplements to Cancer Center Support Grants (CCSGs; P30s) for NCI-designated Cancer Centers (CCs) to each recruit a Community Health Educator (CHE). The purpose of this administrative supplement funding opportunity is to support a strengthening of community outreach capacity by working through the National Outreach Network (NON). It is expected that NON CHEs, located at NCI-designated CCs, will enhance the development and dissemination of culturally appropriate, evidence-based cancer information to members of underserved communities including rural and racial/ethnic populations (e.g., African American/Black, American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Hispanic/Latino, Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander) in a way that is tailored to their specific needs.

Commercializing Understudied Proteins from the Illuminating the Druggable Genome Project (IDG) (R43/R44 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity PA-19-034 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications from small business concerns (SBCs) to initiate early research ultimately leading to the commercialization of understudied proteins identified in the "Illuminating the Druggable Genome" project (IDG; https://commonfund.nih.gov/idg/index ). The purpose of the IDG is to reveal the function of selected understudied proteins in the druggable genome. Organized as a consortium, the project consists of multiple Data and Resource Generation Centers (DRGCs), a Knowledge Management Center (KMC), a Resource Dissemination and Outreach Center (RDOC) and projects developing Cutting Edge Informatics Tools (CEITs). Small businesses are expected to complement the IDG Centers by proposing projects to commercially validate reagents, data or experimental approaches. Projects could range from early proof-of-concept demonstration and assay development/validation to the initiation of preclinical drug discovery projects.
