NIH Weekly Funding Opportunities and Policy Notices
Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-22-037 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) provides support to eligible, domestic institutions to develop and implement Postbaccalaureate Research Education Programs in Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases (DDEMD). These post-baccalaureate research programs will incorporate extensive research experiences and well-designed courses for skills development to prepare recent college graduates from diverse backgrounds to transition into and complete rigorous, research-focused biomedical doctoral degree programs (e.g., Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D.). The long-term goal of post-baccalaureate participants admitted to the program should be pursuing a career focused on DDEMD-related research. Eligible applicants for the R25 must be research-intensive doctoral degree-granting institutions with a research base in DDEMD science of at least $3 million in direct costs of peer-reviewed research projects, and research opportunities for students admitted to the program must be in DDEMD science.
Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-23-275 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to encourage research to integrate/harmonize existing large prevention trial data sets implemented earlier in life to examine whether they reduce risk for later suicide, including suicide thoughts and behaviorsfatal and nonfatal (STB), and related external injuries (e.g., nonfatal SUD/OUD/accidents, and all-cause mortality (e.g., National Death Index). This U01 will be competed and funded to: 1) obtain existing prevention trial data sets, with collaboration of the PIs who have the original data sets; 2) anonymize and aggregate and harmonize prevention trial data sets; 3) provide methodological and statistical expertise needed to examine, using theory-based approaches, whether intervening early reduces risk for STB and mortality, and potential mediators and moderators; and 4) oversee a final harmonized prevention trial data that will be deposited into the NIMH Data Archive (NDA). This harmonized dataset will serve as an ongoing resource to the research community for years to come.
Funding Opportunity RFA-NR-23-004 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Care delivery, in which a patients health is viewed apart from their social context, must be reimagined to make meaningful improvements in health, eliminate health disparities, and advance health equity. The purpose of the Bridge-to-Care initiative is to promote research that links clinical care with community services and resources to address unmet social needs and adverse social conditions. More specifically, this funding opportunity invites intervention research studies, conducted in partnership with healthcare and community organizations, that address individuals' and families' unmet social needs and communities' adverse social conditions, with a focus on populations that bear an excess burden of morbidity and mortality.
Funding Opportunity RFA-NR-23-002 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Disparities in maternal health outcomes is a public health crisis that requires new insights and solutions. The purpose of this initiativeadvancing integrated models (AIM) of careis to stimulate research to develop or evaluate supportive care models that address healthcare access or healthcare quality together with structural or social inequities in order to prevent adverse maternal health outcomes among racial and ethnic minority women. This includes original intervention research and research evaluating the impact of federal, tribal, state, local, or organizational policies and programs on maternal health outcomes. Outcomes of interest include pregnancy-related morbidity (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, obesity, cerebrovascular disease, mental illness) including severe maternal morbidity; pregnancy-associated factors (e.g., violence exposure including firearm violence, substance use disorders, dietary patterns), and maternal mortality.
Funding Opportunity RFA-NR-23-003 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to identify and evaluate the ongoing and long-term impacts of the pandemic era, focusing specifically on governmental (local, state, tribal, federal) policy and programmatic actions that address two specific social determinants of health: food/nutrition security and housing security. Applications are requested to examine how these food/nutrition and housing policies and programs aimed at lessening the effects of the pandemic era impacted health and health equity in individuals, families, and communities from health disparity populations. Health disparity populations include Blacks/African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians and Alaska Natives, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, underserved rural populations, and sexual and gender minorities.

Funding Opportunity PAR-23-121 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. New biologic knowledge will come from both sole investigators following their vision and from teams of scientists sharing their expertise. Some complex biomedical problems require a multidisciplinary vantage point to discover an innovative solution. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites grant applications for investigator-initiated Research Program Project Grant (P01) renewal (Type 2) applications. The P01 program project award supports research that has multiple distinct but synergistic projects built around a unifying central theme within the scientific mission of the NIDDK. The P01 is one of several grant mechanisms the NIDDK uses to foster multi-disciplinary, collaborative research projects. More information on and a comparison among these collaborative grant mechanisms supported by NIDDK can be found at: https://www.niddk.nih.gov/research-funding/process/apply/funding-mechanisms/collaborative-grants-comparison. A central theme or well-defined major objective is the foundation of a P01 program project. Compared to the narrower thrust of a traditional R01 research project, a program project is directed toward a range of scientific questions that elucidate various aspects of the central theme. The interrelationships of research projects and collaborations among investigators will yield synergy and results beyond those achievable if each research project were to be pursued independently. In addition, one or more shared research cores are required. The project leaders and core leaders should be established investigators with strong records of innovative research and independent funding support. The participation of experts in several disciplines or in several areas of one discipline will greatly enhance the goals of the program project. All investigators must contribute to, and share in, the responsibilities of fulfilling the program objectives.

Funding Opportunity RFA-AI-23-015 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for a Genomic Centers for Infectious Disease (GCID) Program. This renewal initiative will support GCIDs to advance the development and use of innovative genomic and bioinformatics tools with an emphasis on human pathogens and their interactions with the host and microbiome, and to rapidly respond to emerging needs, especially during disease outbreaks. The Program will address basic, translational, and clinically relevant questions in host-pathogen interactions and support the development of genomics-based tools to diagnose, prevent, and treat infectious diseases. In the event of an infectious disease outbreak, the GCIDs will be poised to leverage the expertise and resources within the network to assist in a coordinated research response.

Funding Opportunity RFA-DA-24-008 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this FOA is to attract data and computational scientists to propose novel ways to integrate data of different types and scales to allow new types of analysis. It is expected that with the development and application of novel computational, bioinformatics, statistical, and analytical approaches, previously inaccessible insights will reveal new aspects of addiction biology.
