NIH Weekly Funding Opportunities and Policy Notices
Notice NOT-AR-25-012 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts
Funding Opportunity RFA-HL-26-011 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to renew the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study of HIV in United States Adults (MWCCS) for a 6-year project period (2026-2032). Continuation of this epidemiological cohort study of middle-aged and older people living with HIV (PLWH), along with comparable individuals living without HIV (PLWOH) will enable the continued follow-up of a deeply phenotyped cohort of approximately 5,600 participants from across the United States. This initiative will utilize a populomics approach, i.e., examination of health determinants across multiple scales of influence (e.g. molecular, cellular, physiological, lifestyle/behavioral, household, neighborhood, environmental, cultural, and sociopolitical) using multi-disciplinary methods to investigate the web of influences impacting the health, quality of life, and survival of adults living with HIV. This NOFO seeks applications to fund a single Leadership and Coordination Center (LACC) for the MWCCS. This NOFO runs in parallel with two companion U01 NOFOs: RFA-HL-26-009 (Limited Competition: Clinical Research Sites (CRS) for the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS) (U01 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)) and RFA-HL-26-010 (Limited Competition: Data Analysis and Sharing Center (DASC) for the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS) (U01 Clinical Trials Not Allowed))
Funding Opportunity RFA-HL-26-010 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to renew the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study of HIV in United States Adults (MWCCS) for a 7-year project period (2026-2033). Continuation of this epidemiological cohort study of middle-aged and older people living with HIV (PLWH), along with comparable individuals living without HIV (PLWOH) will enable the continued follow-up of a deeply phenotyped cohort of approximately 5,500 participants from across the United States. This initiative will utilize a populomics approach, i.e., examination of health determinants across multiple scales of influence (e.g. molecular, cellular, physiological, lifestyle/behavioral, household, neighborhood, environmental, cultural, and sociopolitical) using multi-disciplinary methods to investigate the web of influences impacting the health, quality of life, and survival of adults living with HIV. This NOFO seeks applications to fund a single Data Analysis and Sharing Center (DASC) for the MWCCS, with competition limited to institutions who were funded under RFA-HL-19-007.
Funding Opportunity RFA-HL-26-009 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to renew the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study of HIV in United States Adults (MWCCS) for a 6-year project period (2026-2032). Continuation of this epidemiological cohort study of middle-aged and older people living with HIV (PLWH), along with comparable people living without HIV (PLWOH) will enable the continued follow-up of a deeply phenotyped cohort of more than 5,600 participants from across the United States. This initiative will utilize a populomics approach, i.e., examination of health determinants across multiple scales of influence (e.g. molecular, cellular, physiological, lifestyle/behavioral, household, neighborhood, environmental, cultural, and sociopolitical) using multi-disciplinary methods to investigate the web of influences impacting the health, quality of life, and survival of adults living with HIV. This NOFO is limited to institutions who were funded under RFA-HL-19-008 and will fund up to 13 Clinical Research Sites (CRS) for the MWCCS. This NOFO runs in parallel with two companion U01 NOFOs: RFA-HL-26-010 (Limited Competition: Data Analysis and Sharing Center (DASC) for the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS) (U01 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)) and RFA-HL-26-011 (Leadership and Coordination Center (LACC) for the MACS/WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS) (U01 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)).
Funding Opportunity RFA-AI-24-079 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to invite applications from single institutions or consortia of institutions to participate in the Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Centers (AADCRC) program. The program will support centers that integrate clinical and translational research to conduct studies on the mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of diseases of interest, including asthma, rhinitis (allergic and non-allergic), chronic rhinosinusitis, atopic dermatitis, food allergy, and drug allergy. The overarching goal of the program is to improve the understanding of the pathogenesis of these conditions and to provide a rational foundation for new, effective treatments and prevention strategies.
Notice NOT-AG-24-098 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts
Funding Opportunity PAR-25-356 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to enhance the participation of individuals from nationally underrepresented backgrounds to enhance the participation of individuals from nationally underrepresented backgrounds in cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic and sleep disorders research across the career development continuum by providing support to institutions that promote diversity. The NHLBI's T32 Training Program for Institutions That Promote Diversity is a Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award Program intended to support training of predoctoral and health professional students and individuals in postdoctoral training institutions with an institutional mission focused on serving health disparity populations not well represented in scientific research, or institutions that have been identified by federal legislation as having an institutional mission focused on these populations, with the potential to develop meritorious training programs in cardiovascular, pulmonary, and hematologic diseases, and sleep disorders. These institutions are uniquely positioned to engage minority and other health disparity populations in research, translation, and implementation of research advances that impact health outcomes, as well as provide health care for these populations. This NOFO does not allow appointed trainees to lead an independent clinical trial but does allow them to obtain research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor.
Funding Opportunity PAR-25-353 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Reissue of PAR-20-119. This FOA encourages applications to advance the discovery, preclinical development, and proof of concept (PoC) testing of new, rationally based candidate agents and neurostimulation approaches to treat mental disorders, substance use disorders (SUDs) or alcohol use disorder (AUD), and to develop novel ligands and circuit-engagement devices as tools to further characterize existing or to validate new drug/device targets. Partnerships between academia and industry are strongly encouraged. This FOA supports a research program of multiple projects directed toward a specific major objective, basic theme or program goal, requiring a broadly based, multidisciplinary and often long-term approach. Projects seeking support for a discrete, specified, circumscribed project to be performed by the named investigator(s) in an area representing his or her specific interest and competencies should consider the companion U01 FOA.
