The purpose of this FOA is to seek revision applications to cooperative agreements that are supporting networks or consortia of researchers who conduct or will be interested in conducting research in the following areas: The effectiveness of current human subjects protections and the development of tools and methods to examine evolving, evidence-based approaches to improve human subjects protections. The feasibility, costs, benefits, and impacts of requiring consent for research on deidentified human specimens and data using novel models of consent, e.g., notification, opt-out, opt-in, broad consent.

The NINDS Advanced Postdoctoral Career Transition Award to Promote Diversity issued by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), is designed to increase the number of highly trained early career investigators from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in neuroscience research. Faculty from diverse backgrounds represent only 5% of the tenure-stream neuroscience faculty (2009 Survey Report Neuroscience Departments and Programs). This opportunity provides individuals from diverse backgrounds with strong training in neuroscience with the resources and tools that will help facilitate a transition to a stable and productive independent research position. Individuals from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in neuroscience research are eligible for support under this award if they have doctoral research degrees (Ph.D., P.h.D./M.D. or equivalent) and between 2 and 5 years of postdoctoral research experience at the time of application.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) hereby notify Program Director(s)/Principal Investigator(s) (PD(s)/PI(s)) holding specific types of NIH research grants, listed in the full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) that funds are available for administrative supplements to improve the diversity of the research workforce by supporting and recruiting students, postdoctorates, and eligible investigators from groups that have been shown to be underrepresented in health-related research. This supplement opportunity is also available to PD(s)/PI(s) of research grants who become disabled and need additional support to accommodate their disability in order to continue to work on the research project. Administrative supplements must support work within the scope of the original project.

The Office of Research on Womens Health (ORWH), participating Institutes and Centers (ICs) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) announce the continuation of the program for administrative supplements to research grants to support individuals with high potential to re-enter an active research career after an interruption for family responsibilities or other qualifying circumstances. The purpose of these supplements is to encourage such individuals to re-enter research careers within the missions of all the program areas of NIH. This program will provide administrative supplements to existing NIH research grants for the purpose of supporting full-time or part-time research by these individuals to update their existing research skills and knowledge.

The purpose of the U.S.-China Program for Biomedical Collaborative Research is to stimulate collaborative basic, translational, and applied research between United States (U.S.)-based researchers and Chinese researchers in the areas of allergy, immunology, and infectious diseases including HIV/AIDS and its co-morbidities and co-infections, cancer, mental health, Parkinsons disease (PD), and stroke.

The NINDS recognizes the unique and compelling need to promote diversity in participation in neuroscience research and expects these efforts to diversify the neuroscience research workforce to lead to the recruitment of the most talented researchers from all groups. The purpose of the NINDS Faculty Development Award to Promote Diversity in Neuroscience Research is to provide junior faculty support and protected time (up to three years) for an intensive, supervised career development experience in neuroscience research. The goal of the NINDS K01 is to diversify the pool of independent neuroscience research investigators and to enhance the probability of success in obtaining independent NIH or other independent research support. Individuals from backgrounds underrepresented in biomedical research are eligible for support under this award if they have doctoral research degrees (Ph.D. or equivalent) and are in the first 3 years of a faculty position at the time of award.

The purpose of this limited Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite applications to support the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) for the Cardiothoracic Surgical Trials Network (CTSN). A separate FOA (RFA-HL-13-017) seeks applications for Network Core Clinical Centers. The goal of the CTSN is to evaluate surgical interventions and related management approaches to improve the treatment of cardiovascular disease and conditions in adult patients. The DCC provides administrative and statistical support to maintain an infrastructure to develop, coordinate, and conduct multiple collaborative surgical trials designed to improve cardiovascular outcomes and optimize post-operative neurological function.

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to stimulate innovation and development of technologies and reagents that will accelerate the discovery of biological biomarkers for Parkinsons disease (PD). It is expected that the NINDS Parkinsons disease biomarkers program (PDBP) will consolidate, integrate and enhance NINDS-funded PD biomarkers research projects. This FOA will foster research into biospecimen preparation methodologies, quantitative analyte analysis, reagent and assay development, and data analysis methods needed for PD biomarkers progress to occur. Utilization of extant specimens and data for novel discovery projects is permitted under this FOA, as long as consent enables deposition of all data into the PDBP Data Management Resource (DMR).
