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

Cisco- Augmented & Virtual Reality RFP
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) emerged as new technologies in order to bridge our physical world and digital world(s) (i.e., metaverse). AR/VR presents a great potential to fundamentally transform the way we interact with our physical world to understand it better, to facilitate new discoveries and innovations, to make our lives better, and much more. However, AR/VR is an emerging technology and requires foundational and practical innovations so that its full potential benefits the world.
Deadline: rolling
Please contact your RAS unit *and* Angie Wright (angie.wright@emory.edu) to inform them of your intent to submit.

Biological Basis for how Environmental Exposures Impact Risk for Psychiatric Disorders (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
The objective of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications that propose to better understand the biological basis by which environmental exposures alter brain and behavioral functioning to increase risk for psychiatric disorders with onset in late-childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood. The R21 grant mechanism is intended to encourage exploratory and developmental research projects that are high-risk and/or use novel approaches with potential for significant impact. Investigations that further advance our understanding of psychiatric conditions where there is less evidence of an environmental exposure link are of particular interest.
Deadline: 2/2/2023

Research Networks to Promote Multidisciplinary Mechanistic Studies on Music-Based Interventions for Pain or Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) (U24 Clinical Trial Optional)
The purpose of this FOA is to support a collection of research networks that promote multidisciplinary mechanistic studies of music-based interventions (MBIs) for pain or Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (AD/ADRD). These networks are expected to develop compelling research frameworks that will effectively guide future clinical studies on MBIs in these health conditions; adopt consistent terminology and taxonomy; support interdisciplinary collaborations andinitiate pilot projects to test novel mechanistic hypotheses; and identify strong mechanistic measures, outcomes, biomarkers, as well as relevant novel technologies and methodologies.
Deadline: 1/10/2023

AHEAD (Advancing Head and Neck Cancer Early Detection Research) (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to accelerate translation of research to improve early detection of head and neck cancers (HNC). This FOA seeks applications that focus on early detection of HNC by applying molecular, cellular, and multi-omics signatures to clinical studies for differentiating benign from premalignant lesions, and identifying prognostic signatures on the transformation from premalignant to malignant lesions. Better understanding of the molecular characteristics of dysplastic lesions and early recurrence are needed for improving lesion classification relevant to predicting cancer progression, which could have a significant impact on cancer prevention and treatment optimization.
Deadline: 1/27/2023

Modular R01s in Cancer Control and Population Sciences (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)
This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages applications for research in cancer control and population sciences. The overarching goal is to provide support to promote research efforts on novel scientific ideas that have the potential to substantially advance cancer research in statistical and analytic methods, epidemiology, cancer survivorship, cancer-related behaviors and behavioral interventions, health care delivery, and implementation science.
Deadlines: 3/7/2023

Climate Smart Humanities Organizations
The Climate Smart Humanities Organizations program strengthens the institutional base of the humanities by funding organizational assessments and strategic planning that sustain and protect historical, cultural, educational, intellectual, and physical assets from the risks of climate change. As energy costs rise and natural disasters become more frequent, humanities organizations—such as museums, libraries, archives, historic sites, and colleges and universities—face an enormous task: to anticipate operational, physical, and financial impacts of current and future climate-related events on their institutions and the audiences they serve, while also reducing their own impacts on the environment.
Deadline: 1/17/2023

Integrating Climate Change Impacts with Wet Weather Management, Capital Improvement, and Stream Network Enhancement (RFP 5176)
Utilities and communities are being encouraged to assess wastewater, water, and stormwater infrastructure systems (including sanitary, combined, and storm sewer systems) to determine possible threats due to climate change at local and regional scales. Examples include rainfall‐driven flooding, snowstorms in both cold and warm regions, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events. Climate change has undermined the basic assumption that past weather patterns are predictive of future weather patterns, impacting the development of strategies, design, and operation of stormwater, combined sewer overflow (CSO), pollution prevention, source water protection, and infrastructure programs. Methods and tools that utilities and communities can use to conduct these assessments are needed to better understand the natural and meteorological threats that could result from climate change, to project and forecast possible effects on their systems, and to design and implement capital improvements and operational changes to protect their infrastructure systems and public safety.
Deadline: 11/22/2022
