DEPSCoR Research Collaboration
|
|
This funding opportunity aims to create basic research collaborations between a pair of researchers, namely 1) a full-time faculty member applicant who has never served as a PI on a prior DoD directly funded research Prime award and 2) a Collaborator/co-Principal Investigator (co-PI) who will provide mentorship to the Applicant and has served as a PI on a DoD directly funded research Prime award actively between 1 October 2016 and 30 September 2023. This structure is aimed at introducing potential applicants to the DoD’s unique research challenges and its supportive research ecosystem.
DEPSCoR FOA Webinar
The DoD will be hosting a virtual DEPSCoR Webinar on April 5th from 1:00pm-3:00pm EDT. The DEPSCoR Webinar will include overviews of the funding opportunities Research Collaboration (FOA-AFRL-AFOSR-2023-0008) and Capacity Building (FOA-AFRL-AFOSR-2023-0007 limited submission). Participants will also have an opportunity to ask questions about the funding opportunities during the webinar. To participate in the DEPSCoR Webinar, you must REGISTER.

Applications submitted under this announcement are to be in furtherance of the following objectives:
- (1) Plan, conduct, or otherwise arrange for competent applied and peer-reviewed research that fosters: (A) Improvements in Nevada water supply reliability. (B) The exploration of new ideas that: (i) address state water problems; or (ii) expand our understanding of water and water-related phenomena. (C) The entry of new research scientists, engineers, and technicians into water resources fields. (D) The dissemination of research results to state water managers and the public.
- (2) Cooperate closely with other colleges and universities in the state that have demonstrated capabilities for research, information dissemination, and graduate training to develop a statewide program designed to resolve state and regional water issues and the related land problems and promote regional coordination. The NWRRI encourages applicants to submit proposals that address the ongoing megadrought and increased aridity, as well as their effects on water resources within 2 the state. Proposals addressing these research topics will be given additional consideration during the review process. Emphasis will be placed on proposals that consist of co-produced research involving water purveyors, water users, or similar entities within the state. Letters of support are required from entities outside of the research community to qualify as co-produced research.
Anticipated ~$117,000 of federal funding in FY23. Proposals should be for research and information transfer projects 12 to 24 months in duration. Applicants are required to match each federal dollar requested with at least one non-federal dollars. It is anticipated that three proposals will be funded in 2023, therefore, an upper limit of $25,000 per proposal per year is established.

NIH NIMH Mentoring Network for Mental Health
|
|
The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of this R25 program is to support educational activities that complement and/or enhance the training of a workforce to meet the nation’s biomedical, behavioral and clinical research needs.
To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this FOA will support innovative educational activities with a primary focus on:
and in particular, mentoring networks. Networks may be national or regional. All proposed networks should provide significant new opportunities, and should comprise efforts substantially beyond any ongoing mentoring, networking, or research education within academic programs, institutions, or pre-existing networks; or educational collaborations among institutions. Participants in proposed mentoring networks are limited to graduate/medical students, medical residents, postdoctoral scholars, and/or early-career investigators. Proposed networks are expected to enhance the participants' professional development and to foster their career trajectory towards independent mental health research. Proposed programs are thus expected to contribute to the development of a skilled cadre of investigators in requisite scientific research areas to advance the objectives of the NIMH Strategic Plan.

NIH Exploratory Grants for Climate Change and Health Research Center Development (P20 Clinical Trial Optional), RFA-ES-23-007. CFDA #'s 93.113, 93.989, 93.837, 93.838, 93.839, 93.840, 93.233, 93.361, 93.865, 93.855, 93.307, 93.242, 93.866. Limited to $850,000 direct costs per year. The maximum project period is 3 years. Application Deadline: 05/01/23 and 11/7/23.
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit P20 planning grant applications for Climate Change and Health Research Centers (CCHRCs). This program will support the development of a transdisciplinary research environment to sustain a program of fundamental and applied research to examine the impacts of climate change on health and to develop action-oriented solutions to protect the health of individuals, communities, and nations from the hazards posed by climate change. This opportunity will allow development of new research teams collaborating with communities and other partners to develop projects that generate data that will build or expand research capacity across a range of thematic scientific areas in support of the four core elements of the NIH’s Initiative in climate heath research: health effects research, health equity, intervention research, and training and capacity building.
