Constructive Collisions: Neuroscience x Environmental Health
Tuesday, October 11, 2022 | 11:45 AM - 2:00 PM
Rollins School of Public Health, 8th Floor
Lawrence P. & Ann Estes Klamon Room
1518 Clifton Rd. NE, Atlanta, GA 30322
Join us for an in-person, on-campus event that will include two exciting collaboration opportunities to connect researchers working in Neuroscience x Environmental Health.
The Office of SVPR, in partnership with HERCULES Exposome Research Center, Goizueta Institute @ Emory Brain Health, and the Department of Human Genetics, invites Emory researchers who work in environmental health, brain health and the neurosciences, and other related disciplines to attend. Faculty who do not currently work in this space but who are interested are also welcome.
NIH has formally expressed interest in promoting interdisciplinary research and addressing current gaps and opportunities in the intersection of these research areas.
This session will host Lightning Talk presenters who will share brief 10-minute presentations on their ongoing work and future research interests. Following Lighting Talks, we will host a Pitch Session where event attendees will network, collaborate, and brainstorm project ideas that can lead to extramural funding in this area. The event will culminate with each team pitching a real seed project, with up to three teams receiving small, on-the-spot funding to support new collaborations.
**Parking and Box Lunch Included**

AI.Humanity with a Social Justice Lens w/ Georgia Tech
Wednesday, November 9, 2022 | 3: 00 PM – 6:00 PM
CODA at Tech Square
756 W Peachtree St NW, Atlanta, GA 30308
We invite you to join us at a networking event and pitch competition between Emory University and Georgia Tech on the topic of AI.Humanity with a Social Justice Lens. This event is open to researchers from both universities who currently work in AI and/or Social Justice and those who have an interest in working at the intersection of these areas.
The first half of the event will include structured networking activities to promote dialogue around social justice. Attendees will be encouraged to network, create teams, and brainstorm ideas for new projects. The event will culminate with each team pitching their ideas to receive on-the-spot funding.

National Institutes of Health | Time-Sensitive Opportunities for Health Research (R61/R33 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Supports research to understand health outcomes related to an unexpected and/or time-sensitive event (e.g., emergent environmental threat; pandemic; change in local, state, or national policy; natural disaster) through and accelerated review/award process. Applications must demonstrate that the research proposed is time-sensitive and must be initiated with minimum delay due to a limited window of opportunity to collect baseline data, answer key research questions, and/or prospectively evaluate a new policy or program.
Deadline: Application accepted on a rolling basis

National Institutes of Health | Bridge2AI Program
Although there are no current funding opportunities posted, NIH recently announced it will invest $130 million over four years, to accelerate the widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI) by the biomedical and behavioral research communities. Through extensive collaboration across projects, Bridge2AI researchers will create guidance and standards for development of ethically sourced, state-of-the-art, AI-ready data sets that have the potential to help solve some of the most pressing challenges in human health.

Cisco Research Gifts - Web3.0: De-Centralized Computing, Blockchain, Cryptocurrency/Virtual Currency
Web 3.0 has disrupted the technological ecosystem and geoeconomics worldwide. A parallel digital economy was born out of bitcoin, and then continues to grow with the help of Ethereum and other cryptocurrency (aka virtual-currency) platforms. They have given rise to the concept of de-centralized finance (DeFI) technology. De-centralized computing is enabled by blockchain and is being implemented as de-centralized apps (dApps).
Rolling Deadline
Please contact your RAS unit *and* Angie Wright to inform them of your intent to submit. (angie.wright@emory.edu)

Smart Health and Biomedical Research in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Data Science (SCH)
The purpose of this interagency program solicitation is to support the development of transformative high-risk, high-reward advances in computer and information science, engineering, mathematics, statistics, behavioral and/or cognitive research to address pressing questions in the biomedical and public health communities. Transformations hinge on scientific and engineering innovations by interdisciplinary teams that develop novel methods to intuitively and intelligently collect, sense, connect, analyze and interpret data from individuals, devices and systems to enable discovery and optimize health. Solutions to these complex biomedical or public health problems demand the formation of interdisciplinary teams that are ready to address these issues, while advancing fundamental science and engineering.
Submission Deadline: 11/10/2022

The role of Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin disease (HD) development with or without an underlying HIV infection (U01 Clinical Trial Optional)
This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) focuses on the role of EBV infection on Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin disease (HD) development with or without an underlying HIV infection. The goal is to increase our knowledge through mechanistic, epidemiological, or translational studies that examine how EBV promotes NHL or HD initiation, progression, and the resulting disease sequelae and to provide insights into mechanistic differences in the relationship between EBV infection and lymphomagenesis in HIV+ versus HIV- persons.
Deadline: 12/15/2022

Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Disease
This program supports research on the ecological, evolutionary, organismal, and social drivers that influence the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases. The central theme of submitted projects must be the quantitative or computational understanding of pathogen transmission dynamics. Projects should be broad, interdisciplinary efforts that go beyond the scope of typical studies. They should focus on the determinants and interactions of (re)emergence and transmission among any host species, including but not limited to humans, non-human animals, and/or plants. Proposals for research on disease systems of public health concern to Low- or Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) are strongly encouraged, as are disease systems of concern in agricultural systems.
Deadline: 11/16/2022

Collaborative Research in Computational Neuroscience (CRCNS)
One of the most exciting and difficult challenges for contemporary science and engineering is to understand complex neurobiological systems, from genetic determinants to cellular processes to the interplay of neurons, circuits, and systems orchestrating behavior and cognition. Disorders of the nervous system are also associated with complex neurobiological changes, which may lead to profound alterations at all levels of organization. The computational principles and strategies of the nervous system have implications for biological and engineered systems alike, opening new avenues for discovery, application, and invention.
Deadline: 11/22/2022
