NINDS Institutional Research Training Program (T32 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Expiration Date: Friday, May 26, 2023
NOFO Number: PAR-21-149
Wednesday, February 24, 2021
Notice Type: PAR
The purpose of this FOA is to provide support for institutional research training programs in areas relevant to the NINDS mission. These institutional research training programs should produce well-trained neuroscientists who leave the program with the research skills and scientific knowledge to make a significant contribution to neuroscience research. Programs should be designed to enhance the breadth and depth of training in NINDS mission areas by incorporating didactic, research and career development components in the context of a defined scientific theme. Programs may support basic, clinical and/or translational research. Critical components of programs supported by this FOA include mechanisms to ensure a thorough understanding of experimental design, strong statistics and analytical skills, and skills for communicating science, both orally and in writing, to a wide variety of audiences. Regardless of theme, programs should provide opportunities and activities that will foster the development of quantitative literacy and the application of quantitative approaches to the trainees' research. NINDS institutional training programs are intended to be 1-2 years in duration and support training of one or more of the following groups: dissertation stage predoctoral students in their 3rd and/or 4th year of graduate school, postdoctoral fellows and fellowship-stage clinicians. (NINDS does not support first or second year graduate students under this PAR).
Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Small Business Initiatives for Innovative Diagnostic Technology for Improving Outcomes for Maternal Health
Expiration Date: Thursday, April 6, 2023
NOFO Number: NOT-EB-21-001
Monday, February 22, 2021
Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
The purpose of this trans-NIH Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to inform potential applicants that the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering and participating Institutes and Centers (ICs) invite SBIR/STTR applications to develop technologies or tools to quantitatively predict or indicate an increased risk for maternal morbidity and mortality (MMM). This NOSI is part of the Implementing a Maternal health and PRegnancy Outcomes Vision for Everyone (IMPROVE) initiative, which supports research to reduce preventable causes of maternal deaths and improve health for women before, during, and after delivery.
Fogarty Global Trauma and Injury Research Training Program (D43 Clinical Trial Optional)

Wednesday, February 17, 2021
Notice Type: RFA
The overall objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to strengthen trauma and injury research capacity at academic institutions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through support for research training programs.
NIH Support for Conferences and Scientific Meetings (Parent R13 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Research Category: Pain
Expiration Date: Monday, January 8, 2024
NOFO Number: PA-21-151

Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Availability of Administrative Supplements for BRAIN Initiative Awardees to Support Resource Dissemination
Expiration Date: Wednesday, March 1, 2023
NOFO Number: NOT-NS-21-014
Tuesday, February 9, 2021
Notice Type: Notice of Special Interest
This Notice?of Special Interest (NOSI)?announces the availability of administrative supplements to?support the?dissemination of?promising technologies and?resources generated from?active Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative awards,?to?foster collaborations between innovators and new end-user laboratories, and ultimately integrate such innovations?into neuroscience research?practice. The BRAIN Initiative is aimed at revolutionizing our understanding of the human brain. By accelerating the development and application of innovative technologies and resources, researchers will be able to produce a new dynamic picture of the brain that, for the first time, shows how individual cells and complex neural circuits interact in both time and space. It is expected that the application of these new technologies and resources will ultimately lead to new ways to treat, cure, and even prevent brain disorders.
Research on Biopsychosocial Factors of Social Connectedness and Isolation on Health, Wellbeing, Illness, and Recovery (R01 Basic Experimental Studies with Humans Required)

Notice Type: PAR
David Jett

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites research projects that seek to explain the underlying mechanisms, processes, and trajectories of social relationships and how these factors affect outcomes in human health, illness, recovery, and overall wellbeing. Types of projects submitted under this FOA include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical and/or behavioral outcomes in humans to understand fundamental aspects of phenomena related to social connectedness and isolatedness. NIH considers such studies as prospective basic science studies involving human participants that meet the NIH definition of basic research and fall within the NIH definition of clinical trials (see, e.g., NOT-OD-19-024) Types of studies that should submit under this FOA include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes in humans for the purpose of understanding the fundamental aspects of phenomena without specific application towards processes or products in mind.
