Limited Competition for the Continuation of the Intestinal Stem Cell Consortium Coordinating Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-18-508 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This FOA invites a limited competition, renewal application to participate in the Intestinal Stem Cell Consortium (ISCC) as the Coordinating Center. The consortium Coordinating Center will facilitate activities of the consortium and facilitate communication of research results, data and methods within the consortium and to the community.

Limited Competition for the Continuation of the Intestinal Stem Cell Consortium Research Centers (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-18-507 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Limited Competition Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications from the Program Directors/Principal Investigators of the nine current Research Centers (RCs) of the Intestinal Stem Cell Consortium (ISCC) to submit collaborative projects to characterize the minimal, required niche factors that support intestinal stem cells in health and disease, using an integrated, multidisciplinary team science approach. The nine current RCs have been collaborating for the past 4 years, answering major questions in stem cell biology of the intestinal epithelium and also accelerating research by making information and resources available to the research community. In addition, the RCs have established effective and proficient collaborations with other RCs within the ISCC. The primary objective of this FOA is to continue advancing the understanding of intestinal epithelial stem cell biology with the ultimate goal of developing novel therapies targeting intestinal stem cells and supportive niche to regenerate and rebuild the human intestine.

BRAIN Initiative Cell Census Network (BICCN) Scalable Technologies and Tools for Brain Cell Census (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-19-148 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) intends to accelerate the integration and use of scalable technologies and tools to enhance and reinvigorate brain cell census research, including the development of technology platforms and/or resources that will enable a swift and comprehensive survey of brain cell types and circuits. Of particular interest are those that will (a) improve technology and resource platforms to remove limitations and bottlenecks in the current pipeline of brain cell census data generation; (b) integrate experimental and computational methods to enhance capabilities of cell census data generation and analysis and to reduce barriers to hypothesis-driven research; (c) generate a substantial amount of spatiotemporal cell census data and/or resources to demonstrate the utility of the improved technology and resource platforms; and (d) conduct comparative studies by using proper criteria to evaluate and benchmark quality of biospecimen, performance of cell census tools/technologies, and effectiveness of computational approaches. The projects funded under this FOA will align with the overarching goals of the BRAIN Initiative Cell Census Network (BICCN) and are expected to generate a substantial amount of cell census data using the proposed technologies or via collaboration with the BICCN.

BRAIN Initiative Cell Census Network (BICCN) Specialized Collaboratory on Human and Non-Human Primate Brain Cell Atlases (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-19-149 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) intends to support a group of Specialized Collaboratories that will adopt scalable technology platforms and streamlined workflows to accelerate progress towards establishing comprehensive molecular and anatomical reference cell atlases of human brain and/or non-human primate brains. A central goal of this FOA is to build a brain cell census resource that can be widely used throughout the research community.

High-Priority Areas for Research Leveraging EHR and Large-Scale Data (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-929 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages research project grant (R01) applications to leverage large-scale, real-world data from electronic health records (EHRs) from a variety of systems (e.g., the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrative claims, as well as public or private health care systems and networks) to understand risk, onset, course, and impact of treatments and services for mental and neurological disorders and to identify promising new mental health and neurological disorders research. There is particular interest in leveraging EHRs and administrative data to 1) understand and improve the treatment of post traumatic psychopathology, including posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and risk for suicide; and 2) characterize post-trauma multi-symptom recovery trajectory patterns of TBI, that may include post traumatic stress disorder, depression, cognitive impairment, pain, substance abuse disorder and risk for suicide. NIMH also invites innovative approaches to use EHR and administrative data to understand risk, onset, course, and impact of treatments and services for mental disorders more broadly.

Development and Optimization of Tasks and Measures for Functional Domains of Behavior (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-930 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the development and optimization of tasks and measures for constructs pertaining to functional aspects of behavior, for use in laboratory or population-based studies. This announcement encourages research that will result in the availability of tasks and measures that demonstrate: (1) good validity as a measure of a specific construct; (2) robust measurement properties; and (3) suitability for use across diverse participants.

Increasing Uptake of Evidence-Based Screening in Diverse Adult Populations (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)

Funding Opportunity PA-18-932 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications that seek to understand strategies to reduce disparities in the uptake of evidence-based screening (e.g. screening recommendations proven to be effective based on rigorous systematic review of scientific evidence by authoritative committees) across the adult lifespan. In this program announcement, screening is defined as a preventive service focused on detection of an undiagnosed disease in asymptomatic populations. Research supported by this initiative should enhance the screening process related to use: (1) in diverse populations, (2) in diverse clinical and community settings, and/or (3) with traditional, non-traditional and/or allied health care providers.

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 PAR-18-931 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.
