Funding Opportunity RFA-CA-21-021 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites research grant proposals for transdisciplinary studies that will enhance our knowledge of the dynamics and underlying mechanisms that link obesity, metabolic dysregulation and increased cancer risk. Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program will focus on metabolic dysregulation as the key process linking obesity with cancer risk. For the purpose of this FOA, metabolic dysregulation is defined as alterations in glucose utilization and storage, insulin sensitivity, and/or lipid metabolism. Proposals should specifically seek to advance our understanding of how metabolic dysregulation in individuals affects cancer risk and identify mechanisms that will enhance (i) cancer risk prediction, (ii) screening for high-risk individuals in clinical settings, and (iii) identification of potential targets for preventive and therapeutic interventions. This FOA is published in parallel with RFA-CA-21-022 Coordinating Center for the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program: a Transdisciplinary Approach to Obesity-associated Research (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). The individual research grants and the Coordinating Center funded under these FOAs together will constitute the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program.

Funding Opportunity RFA-CA-21-022 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program is focused on metabolic dysregulation as the key process linking obesity with cancer risk. Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) will support a Coordinating Center to facilitate coordination across multiple individual research project grants. The overarching goal of the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program is to enhance our knowledge of the dynamics, and underlying mechanisms, that link obesity, metabolic dysregulation, and increased cancer risk. The Coordinating Center will have several responsibilities, including, but not limited to, provide administrative support to the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program, facilitate and participating in collaborative research, create standard operating procedures and best practices to identify common measures/targets, collect core common data elements and biological samples (when appropriate), facilitate communication across researchers, provide meeting support, coordinating reviews of applications and distribution of research funds, create and maintain the Program website, and facilitate deposition of data to NIH repositories (when appropriate). This FOA is published in parallel with RFA-CA-21-021 Research Project Grants for the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program: a Transdisciplinary Approach to Obesity-associated Research (U01 Clinical Trial Optional). The Coordinating Center and the individual research grants funded under these FOAs together will constitute the Metabolic Dysregulation and Cancer Risk Program.

Funding Opportunity RFA-AG-22-027 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of the GEMSSTAR program is to provide support for early-career physician-scientists trained in medical or surgical specialties or early-career dentist-scientists to launch careers as future leaders in aging- or geriatric-focused research. To achieve this goal, the GEMSSTAR Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) provides small grants to conduct transdisciplinary aging research that will yield pilot data and experience for subsequent aging research projects.

Funding Opportunity PA-21-268 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) hereby notify recipient organizations holding specific types of NIH grants, listed in the full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), that applications for change of recipient organization may be submitted to this FOA. This assumes such a change is programmatically permitted for the particular grant. Applications for change of recipient organization are considered prior approval requests (as described in Section 8.1.2.7 of the NIH Grants Policy Statement) and will be routed for consideration directly to the Grants Management Specialist named in the current award. Although requests for change of recipient organization may be submitted through this FOA, there is no guarantee that an award will be transferred to the new organization. All applicants are encouraged to discuss potential requests with the awarding IC before submission.

Funding Opportunity RFA-HG-21-025 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits R01 grant applications that propose independent research projects that are within the scientific mission areas of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). This program is intended to support New Investigators from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the health-related sciences.

Funding Opportunity RFA-DE-22-003 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this initiative is to solicit research to better understand the epidemiology and biology of oral human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, its acquisition and persistence, in people living with HIV and elucidate the initial mechanisms related to HPV-associated oral and oropharyngeal cancers and warts in the context of HIV.
Monday, June 28, 2021 - 10:17am
Funding Opportunity PAR-21-269 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages solicits applications that propose research designed to test training, mentoring, and networking interventions intended to enhance research-oriented individuals' interest, motivation, persistence and preparedness for careers in the biomedical research workforce. Funded projects are expected to produce research findings that will guide the design and implementation of potential interventions in a variety of academic settings and career levels to enhance the diversity of the biomedical research workforce.
