NIH Weekly Funding Opportunities and Policy Notices
Funding Opportunity PAR-17-268 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to provide time and support for the applicant to develop plans for the design and execution of clinical trials that are highly relevant to the NIGMS mission. Activities supported by a planning grant could include development of a Manual of Procedures, creation of a Data Safety and Monitoring Board charter, development of data handling and statistical analysis plans, establishment of recruitment sites, preparation of preliminary submissions for regulatory approvals, development of training materials, and other tasks essential to a trial. Following funding and successful completion of a planning grant, an application for a clinical trial that is highly relevant to the institute's mission may be submitted to NIGMS via an appropriate clinical trial funding opportunity announcement.
Funding Opportunity PAR-17-270 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The NIDDK Central Repositories house valuable samples and data from numerous major clinical studies. This FOA allows investigators to apply for access to non-renewable samples from one or more of these studies. Information about the samples available can be found at www.niddkrepository.org. Applicants must provide information from the NIDDK Central Repositories documenting sample availability.
Funding Opportunity PAR-17-265 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage research applications to develop and test the effectiveness and implementation of family navigator models designed to promote early access, engagement and coordination of mental health treatment and services for children and adolescents who are experiencing early symptoms of mental health problems. For the purposes of this FOA, NIMH defines a family navigator model as a health care professional or paraprofessional whose role is to deploy a set of strategies designed to rapidly engage youth and families in needed treatment and services, work closely with the family and other involved treatment and service providers to optimize care and monitor the trajectory of mental health symptoms and outcomes over time. Applicants are encouraged to develop and test the navigator models ability to promote early access, engagement and coordination of mental health treatment and services for children and adolescents as soon as symptoms are detected. Of interest are navigator models that coordinate needed care strategies, determine the personalized match to the level of needed service amount, frequency and intensity, and harness novel technologies to track and monitor the trajectory of clinical, functional and behavioral progress toward achieving intended services outcomes.
Funding Opportunity PAR-17-266 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage research applications to develop and pilot test the effectiveness and implementation of family navigator models designed to promote early access, engagement and coordination of mental health treatment and services for children and adolescents who are experiencing early symptoms of mental health problems.

Funding Opportunity RFA-AR-18-002 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications that propose to conduct time-sensitive mechanistic ancillary studies related to the NIAMS mission in conjunction with privately or publicly funded, ongoing interventional clinical trials. The ongoing parent project has to be an interventional clinical trial that can provide a cohort of well-characterized patients, infrastructure, data, and biological samples. Applications submitted in response to this FOA will undergo an accelerated review and award process. The objective of this FOA is to provide a flexible mechanism to leverage established resources and maximize the return on existing investments in parent projects. Successful ancillary studies will enhance the scientific content and value of the parent projects, improve the research communitys understanding of a disease or organ system in the NIAMS portfolio, and thus may identify novel targets for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease.

Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-18-300 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites research grant applications studying mechanisms of HIV-1 persistence in myeloid cells and strategies to target this reservoir in the central nervous system. Basic and translational research in domestic and international settings are of interest. Multidisciplinary research teams and collaborative alliances are encouraged but not required. RFA-MH-18-300 uses the R01 grant mechanism while RFA-MH-18-301 uses the R21 mechanism. High risk/high payoff projects that lack preliminary data or utilize existing data may be most appropriate for the R21 mechanism, while applicants with preliminary data may wish to apply using the R01 mechanism.

Funding Opportunity RFA-HD-18-010 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications from institutions/organizations willing to participate with the NICHD as the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) under a cooperative agreement in an ongoing multi-center research network designed to perform observational and interventional clinical studies, using common protocols, to improve outcomes for neonates.
