Expiration Date: Friday, May 16, 2025 NOFO Number: PAR-23-120 Release Date: Monday, March 6, 2023 Notice Type: PAR
The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to provide investigators with access to resources provided by the Data Management Coordinating Center for Diagnostic Centers of Excellence (RFA-NS-22-051), as part of the next phase of the Undiagnosed Diseases Network. Resources include infrastructure, data management, and clinical research support for a new Network of clinical sites that provide diagnostic services for patients with undiagnosed diseases.
Expiration Date: Saturday, March 7, 2026 NOFO Number: PAR-23-090 Release Date: Wednesday, February 8, 2023 Notice Type: PAR
This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages applications for multi-center clinical trials focused on neurological emergencies. Successful applicants will collaborate and conduct the trial within the NIH SIREN Network. The NIH SIREN Clinical Coordinating Center (CCC) will work with the successful applicants to implement the proposed trial efficiently and the SIREN Data Coordinating Center (DCC) will provide statistical and data management support. The NIH SIREN hubs and their affiliated clinical sites will provide on-site implementation of the clinical protocols.The NIH SIREN Network will also be uniquely poised to collaborate with other US and international consortia necessary to conduct larger, definitive trials of promising interventions for neurological emergencies. Multi-center clinical trials in stroke treatment, recovery, or prevention supported by NINDS will be conducted in the NIH StrokeNet, and not within SIREN. Applicants do not need to be part of the existing SIREN infrastructure to apply under this FOA.
Expiration Date: Monday, June 24, 2024 NOFO Number: NOT-NS-23-062 Release Date: Monday, February 6, 2023 Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
NINDS ALS NOSI
Expiration Date: Friday, January 7, 2028 NOFO Number: NOT-HL-22-040 Release Date: Thursday, January 19, 2023 Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
This Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) highlights interest in receiving grant applications focused on mechanistic, genetic, and other studies to evaluate causes and consequences of and risk factors for sudden death in the young. Studies are required to use phenotypic data and/or DNA samples and/or associated sequence data from the NIH/CDC Sudden Death in the Young (SDY) Case Registry as foundations for their research. Studies may use SDY Case Registry phenotypic data and/or samples and/or sequence data alone or in combination with other cohorts. Results of such studies are required to adhere to the NIH Data Sharing Policy https://sharing.nih.gov/data-management-and-sharing-policy so that the data is disseminated widely and provides an evidence base to advance discussions about screening and prevention of SDY.
Research Category: HEAL Initiative, Pain Expiration Date: Saturday, September 6, 2025 NOFO Number: PAR-23-069 Release Date: Tuesday, January 3, 2023 Notice Type: PAR

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to facilitate the transition of previously funded SBIR and STTR Phase II and Phase IIB projects in pain management to the commercialization stage by providing additional assistance for private partnering activities through the Commercialization Readiness Pilot (CRP) program. Specifically, this FOA supports the addition of entrepreneurial expertise into small business leadership teams along with supporting partnering activities to aid in commercialization through private third-party funding or partnership with industry.

Expiration Date: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 NOFO Number: NOT-MH-23-115 Release Date: Friday, December 23, 2022 Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
This NOSI supports creation of data archive(s), development of software tools, and establishment of data standards for BBQS-related studies to address the above-described challenges in the research program. The informatics infrastructure and tools to be developed under this NOSI are expected to be widely used by BBQS investigators, as well as by a broader community. Applications in response to this NOSI should therefore clearly justify the importance and implications of the proposed informatics infrastructure or tools to the BBQS program, and identify the potential user base. The projects funded under this NOSI are expected to support, communicate and collaborate with the funded BBQS research projects. Applicants should therefore familiarize themselves with the BBQS research program and funded projects (https://www.braininitiative.nih.gov/funding/initiatives.htm; also see RFA-MH-22-240 and RFA-DA-23-030).
Research Category: HEAL Initiative, Pain Expiration Date: Wednesday, March 12, 2025 NOFO Number: RFA-NS-22-023 Release Date: Thursday, December 15, 2022 Notice Type: RFA

The purpose of the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) program is to support a cohort of new and talented independent investigators conducting Pain and/or SUD research, in order to increase the independent investigator workforce in research areas supported by the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM. This program is designed to facilitate a timely transition of eligible outstanding postdoctoral researchers from their mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent, tenure-track or equivalent faculty positions. The program will provide independent NIH research support during this transition to help awardees establish independent research programs in areas supported by the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM.

Research Category: HEAL Initiative, Pain Expiration Date: Wednesday, March 12, 2025 NOFO Number: RFA-NS-22-024 Release Date: Thursday, December 15, 2022 Notice Type: RFA

The purpose of the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) program is to enhance workforce diversity in the research workforce and maintain a strong cohort of new and talented independent investigators conducting Pain and/or SUD research, in order to increase the pool of diverse and independent investigator workforce in research areas supported by the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM. This program is designed to facilitate a timely transition of eligible postdoctoral researchers from their mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent, tenure-track or equivalent faculty positions. The program will provide independent NIH research support during this transition to help awardees establish independent research programs in areas supported by the NIH HEAL InitiativeSM. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is designed specifically for applicants proposing research to serve as the lead investigator of an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, an ancillary clinical trial, or an independent Basic Experimental Studies with Humans (BESH). Applicants not planning an independent clinical trial, or proposing to gain research experience in a clinical trial led by another investigator, must apply to companion FOA (RFA-NS-22-025).
