The NINDS Materials to Enhance Training in Experimental Rigor (METER) UE5 will support curriculum development in the form of innovative educational materials that will be incorporated into a new cutting-edge online resource that aims to promote awareness, understanding, and practice of fundamental principles of rigorous biomedical research for researchers and other scientists in various career stages and learning environments.This UE5 FOA runs in parallel with a companion UC2 FOA that solicits applications for the NINDS center for Creating an Educational Nexus for Training in Experimental Rigor (CENTER), described in detail in RFA-NS-21-009.

The purpose of the Maximizing Opportunities for Scientific and Academic Independent Careers(MOSAIC) program is to support a cohort of early career, independent investigators from diverse backgrounds (for example, individuals from underrepresented groups) conducting research in NIH mission areas. The program has two components: an individual career transition award for postdoctoral scholars (K99/R00) and a research education cooperative agreement (UE5) awarded to organizations to provide these scholars with additional mentoring, networking and professional development activitiesto support their transition to and success in independent, tenure-track or equivalent research-intensive faculty careers.

The purpose of the MOSAIC Postdoctoral Career Transition Award to Promote Diversity (K99/R00) program is to support a cohort of early career, independent investigators from diverse backgrounds conducting research in NIH mission areas. The long-term goal of this program is to enhance diversity in the basic biomedical sciences research workforce. The MOSAIC K99/R00 program is designed to facilitate a timely transition of outstanding postdoctoral researchers from diverse backgrounds (e.g., see NIHs Interest in Diversity) from their mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent, tenure-track or equivalent faculty positions at research-intensive institutions. The MOSAIC K99/R00 program will provide independent NIH research support during this transition to help awardees launch competitive, independent research careers. Additionally, MOSAIC K99/R00 scholars will be part of organized scientific cohorts that will be expected to participate in mentoring, networking, and professional development activities coordinated by MOSAIC Institutionally-Focused Research Education Award to Promote Diversity (UE5) grantees.

HEAL Initiative: INTERACT INTEgRAtive Back Pain Longitudinal Cohort Teams (UC2 Clinical Trial Optional). The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit cooperative agreement applications from interdisciplinary teams to enhance longitudinal data collection and analysis with existing large scale chronic low back pain (cLBP) cohort studies.

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to enhance the sustainability and impact of research software tools by enabling the use of best practices and design principles in software development and by leveraging continuing advances in computing. It is also expected to facilitate the creation of vibrant partnerships between developers and users of software and tools, and to promote FAIR practices for research software to maximize research value.

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to provide salary support for exceptional Research Software Engineers (RSEs) that contribute their skills to the development and dissemination of biomedical, behavioral or health related software, tools, and algorithms as well as to the training of prospective users of these tools.

As part of the NIH's Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative, the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases and other participating NIH Institutes and Centers invite applications for the HEAL KIDS Chronic Pain Collaborating Research Teams (HEAL KIDS CPT) Program to conduct interdisciplinary team-based research projects that combine clinical research, novel/cutting-edge technologies, and measurement science, which will improve our understanding of primary and secondary chronic pain conditions in children and adolescents. The results are expected to enhance and expand our capacity to pursue challenging biological problems, therapeutics development, and effective management of pediatric pain conditions.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) hereby notifies recipient organizations holding specific types of NIH grants, listed within the Activity Code section above, that applications for change of recipient organization may be submitted to this NOFO. This assumes such a change is programmatically permitted for the particular grant. Applications for change of recipient organization are considered prior approval requests (as described in Section 8.1.2.7 of the NIH Grants Policy Statement) and will be routed for consideration directly to the Grants Management Specialist named in the current award. Although requests for change of recipient organization may be submitted through this NOFO, there is no guarantee that an award will be transferred to the new organization. All applicants are encouraged to discuss potential requests with the awarding IC before submission.
