The National Institutes of Health (NIH) will award Institutional Mentored Career Development grants to eligible domestic institutions to support career development programs designed to prepare later stage postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty scholars who have made a commitment to an independent research career for their career advancement and transition to independence. Supported scholars will have "protected time" to engage in intensive, mentored research career development experiences in the fields of biomedical and behavioral research.This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) does not allow appointed scholars to lead an independent clinical trial but does allow them to obtain research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor. NIH strongly supports training towar...

Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), NCI solicits applications for the Research Units (RUs), one of the two scientific components of the Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium (PCDC), to conduct research on early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and characterization of its precursor lesions to identify patients who are at high risk of progression to cancer. The PCDC will continue to address one of the four research priorities identified in the NCI's 2014 Scientific Framework for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The PCDC will support research for the development and testing of new molecular and imaging biomarkers for detecting PDAC early and for identifying patients at high risk of PDAC (because of genetic factors, family history and/or the prese...

The purpose of NEI's Translational Research program (TRP) is the rapid and efficient translation of innovative laboratory research findings into therapeutics for use by clinicians to treat visual system diseases or disorders. The TRP will support the product development of biological, pharmaceutical, medical device, and/or combination therapies for any disease or disorder of the visual system.The TRP will utilize a bi-phasic, milestone-driven mechanism of award. The R61 phase can be up to two years and will support research that has demonstrated significant preliminary data but has not advanced to the level of clinical translation. The R33 phase can be up to four years and will support research that is in the final states of preclinical development with potential for near-term clinical ...

Prospective donors undergo extensive work-up testing to ensure they are physically and mentally able to donate, and these medical appointments may require donors to take time off work. If donation surgery proceeds, donors may require a significant amount of time off work to recover. The extensive work-up testing and donation surgery may require donors to travel long distances for medical appointments. The program aims to ensure that taking time off work and out-of-pocket travel and accommodation expenses are not a barrier for individuals considering donation. The program provides reimbursement of paid leave and out-of-pocket expenses associated with donation.     The program is not an incentive to donate. It is designed to help support those individuals who wish to donate but cannot aff...

It is a targeted, non-competitive grant, with organisations invited to apply by the department where they are identified as able to partner with the Commonwealth to address urgent infrastructure needs. Organisations will only be invited if they are registered providers, can demonstrate they are in a position to become registered prior to any grant being made, or are government providers that will make infrastructure available to a registered provider through a contractual arrangement to deliver funded aged care services. The objectives are to address critical and urgent infrastructure needs in thin markets where there is a risk of aged care homes closing, an immediate or imminent risk to the health, safety and wellbeing of older people or aged care workers, or time-limited opportunities...

The NSW Government can provide funding, technical assistance and advice to help regional local water utilities during emergency events to ensure critical human water needs are met. Program objective Support regional town and village supplies that are threatened by circumstances that could not be reasonably planned for, such as an extreme dry period or extreme water quality event. This program is administered by Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water. Eligibility Who can apply Local councils and County Councils, as identified under the Local Government Act 1993 (providing water supply and/or sewerage services under Section 56).

It contributes to the IAHP’s objectives by providing First Nations people with access to high quality, culturally appropriate comprehensive primary health care services tailored to the health needs and priorities of First Nations communities across Australia. The Australian Government has established four-year rolling funding arrangements with Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services (ACCHSs) that deliver comprehensive primary health care through CPHC RFA. This funding was provided through previous grant opportunity (GO6742). These rolling funding arrangements seek to enable greater certainty and stability for ACCHSs that deliver comprehensive primary health care, thereby strengthening the ACCH sector’s capacity to improve health outcomes for First Nations peoples.  The purpose o...

The U.S. National Science Foundation's Directorate for Biological Sciences (NSF BIO) Core Research in Biological Sciences (BIO Core) funding opportunity supports foundational and interdisciplinary research projects that expand knowledge of biology at any level of organization, from the molecular to the biome scale. We accept proposals that cover scientific topics associated with legacy programs historically supported by NSF BIO and proposals that explore new areas of biological sciences.BIO Core funds single- and multi-investigator awards. The portfolio of awards is anticipated to include a range of budgets and durations, including exploratory projects of smaller scope and long-horizon projects that benefit from longer-term commitment. BIO Core awards are subject to the availability of ...
