Find Funding Opportunities

This funding opportunity is part of a suite of NOFOs within the NIH HEAL Initiative to support the development of safe, effective, and non-addictive therapeutics to treat pain. The goal is to encourage initial translational efforts that will support a drug discovery program and advance projects to the point where they meet the entry criteria for the Pain Therapeutics Development Program. The scope will therefore be focused on development of assays to support a distinct testing funnel, screening efforts to identify hits, and initial characterization of hits and potential therapeutic agents (including small molecules, biologics, and natural products).

The purpose of this initiative is to: (1) support the efforts by R15-eligible Principal Investigators (PIs) to conduct rigorous basic and/or mechanistic pain research projects; (2) promote integrated, interdisciplinary research partnerships between R15-eligible PIs and additional investigators from U.S. domestic institutions, and (3) enhance the pain research environment at the R15-eligible institution for health professional trainees or undergraduate and/or graduate students by actively engaging them in the proposed pain research projects.

This Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to solicit applications to support a series of annual scientific meetings for the Chemical Countermeasures Research Program (CCRP).

Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a debilitating condition that affects between 0.2 and 1% of the US population and may be even more prevalent since the COVID-19 pandemic. The conditionimpairs individuals' ability to participate in routine activities such as working, attending school, exercising and activities of daily life. POTS primarily affects women of child-bearing age, with most studies reporting 80-90% female predominance. While many individuals with POTS report symptoms beginning in adolescence, up to half of all individuals with POTS develop it in adulthood. The impact of POTS across the lifespan has until now not been well studied, and given the female preponderance of the condition there is an unmet need to study how the condition is impacted by events such as menarche, pregnancy and menopause. There is a compelling need to stimulate research focused on improving diagnosis and treatment of POTS. This may include development of biomarkers and diagnostic tools as well as translational studies and mechanistic clinical trials to guide the development of interventions aimed at preventing and curing POTS. This NOSI signals interest in this important area with the goal of stimulating research applications to address these critical needs.

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.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) hereby notify recipient organizations holding specific types of NIH grants, listed in the full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), that applications for change of recipient organization status, often referred to in this announcement as Successor-In-Interest, may be submitted to this NOFO. Applications for change of recipient organization status are considered prior approval requests (as described in Section 8.1.2.8 of the NIH Grants Policy Statement) and will be routed for consideration directly to the Grants Management Specialist named in the current award. Although successor-in-interest requests 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.

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.

The purpose of this NIH HEAL Initiative PAINCare Clinician Training Program(PCTP): Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Awards (K08) (BESH)is to support a cohort of new and well-trained, independent investigators. The program will provide independent NIH research support during the early-career phase to help awardeesestablish independent research programs in areas support by the NIH HEAL InitiativesClinicalResearch in Pain Management program.
