Funding Opportunity RFA-AI-18-003 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications to participate in the NIAID Autoimmunity Centers of Excellence (ACE), a cooperative network intended to improve the understanding, prevention, and treatment of autoimmune diseases (www.autoimmunitycenters.org). The ACE program was founded on the premise that collaborations among basic and clinical scientists can accelerate both fundamental and applied research. The ACE combines Basic and Clinical research programs. This FOA solicits applications for the Clinical research program; a companion FOA solicits applications for the Basic research program. Members of the Clinical research program will conduct innovative studies of human autoimmunity within Clinical and Collaborative Projects. Members of the Basic and Clinical ACE will work together to design and conduct studies of autoimmune disease pathogenesis and mechanisms of action of immune-modulating agents being tested in ACE clinical trials.

Use of genome-enabled approaches and expertise in computational biology and/or bioinformatics is also desired....

Funding Opportunity RFA-DE-19-001 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) intends to continue support for research conducted within a national Dental Practice-Based Research Network (DPBRN). The NIDCR will fund one national DPBRN Administrative and Resource Center led by a National Network Director and one national DPBRN Coordinating Center, funded with companion awards, to support the infrastructure for and implementation of multiple prospective observational studies and clinical trials. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is soliciting applications for the national DPBRN Administrative and Resource Center; a separate companion FOA is soliciting applications for the national DPBRN Coordinating Center (RFA-DE-19-002). The main goals of the cooperative agreement funded under this FOA are to maximize efficiencies to conduct national oral health research studies in dental practices on topics of importance to practitioners and their patients, to provide evidence useful in daily patient care, and to facilitate the translation of research findings into clinical practice. It is expected that the DPBRN will build on the significant investment to date by the NIDCR and will demonstrate continued growth and productivity.

Funding Opportunity RFA-DE-19-002 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) intends to continue support for research conducted within a national Dental Practice-Based Research Network (DPBRN). The NIDCR will fund one national DPBRN Administrative and Resource Center led by a National Network Director and one national DPBRN Coordinating Center, funded as companion awards, to support the infrastructure for and implementation of multiple prospective observational studies and clinical trials. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is soliciting applications for the national DPBRN Coordinating Center; a separate FOA is soliciting applications for the national DPBRN Administrative and Resource Center (RFA-DE-19-002 ). This clinical research network will develop and conduct multiple prospective, observational clinical studies and clinical trials, on topics of interest to practitioners and their patients. Studies will be conducted in participating dental offices with consenting patients. The role of the national Coordinating Center will be to centralize and harmonize study operations, data management, and biostatistical support, to facilitate rapid development and implementation of oral health studies conducted in the national DPBRN.

Emphasis in social sciences, public health, bioinformatics, computer science, or related field preferred....

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-704 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages research projects focused on adducts to cellular macromolecules as indicators of exposures to cancer risk factors relevant to human populations. The priority is on projects that will focus on adductomic approaches, i.e., address some aspects of the totality of adducts. These projects should explore the basic aspects of adducts/adductomics that may have a potential utility in cancer detection, cancer prevention, and/or assessing cancer risks. The projects should be relevant to adducts in humans and human populations but may be conducted using various model systems (e.g., cultured cells, animals, etc.). The use of human biospecimens is encouraged and expected if appropriate but not required. In well-justified cases, innovative studies using the adductomic approaches in the context of cancer etiology and/or gene-environment interaction research may also be appropriate. For projects intended for NIEHS support, the focus may be on innovative technology and method development.

Funding Opportunity PA-18-705 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant applications from small business concerns (SBCs) for projects to transfer technology out of the NIH intramural research labs into the private sector. If selected for SBIR funding, the SBC will be granted a royalty-free, non-exclusive patent license agreement for internal research use for the term of and within the field of use of the SBIR award to technologies held by NIH with the intent that the SBC will develop the invention into a commercial product to benefit the public.

Funding Opportunity PA-18-702 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of the administrative supplement is to provide support for NIH-funded investigators to participate in an entrepreneurship training course, the Concept to Clinic: Commercializing Innovation (C3i) Program. The C3i Program is designed to provide medical device innovators with the specialized business frameworks and essential tools for successful translation of biomedical technologies from the lab (concept) to the market (clinic). Through this program, the NIH fosters the development and commercialization of early-stage biomedical technologies by engaging investigators who are interested in better understanding the value of their innovation in addressing an unmet market need. The curriculum and customized mentoring provided by the C3i Program are intended to guide investigators as they assess the commercial viability and potential business opportunity for their innovation. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to contact NIH Scientific/Research staff for more information about the program before applying.

Funding Opportunity PA-18-700 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of the NIDCD Research Dissertation Fellowship for Au.D. Audiologists (F32) program is to support a comprehensive, rigorous biomedical research training, and dissertation research leading to a research doctorate (i.e., Ph.D.) in the biomedical, behavioral, or clinical sciences.
