Synopsis National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) invites applications for environmental health research in which an unpredictable opportunity has
arisen to collect human biosample or exposure data (e.g., following natural or made-made disasters, health care policy changes, etc). The three distinguishing
features of an eligible study are: 1) the unforeseeable nature of the opportunity; 2) the clear scientific value and feasibility of the study; and 3) the need for rapid
review and funding (substantially shorter than the typical NIH grant review/award cycle) in order for the scientific question to be approached and for the research
design to be implemented. The shortened time frame will be achieved by more frequent application due dates and expediting peer review, council concurrence
and award issuance. The entire cycle from submission to award is expected to be within 3-4 months. This program will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental
(R21) grant mechanism.

SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) invites applications for the development of a data and software coordination
and integration center (DSCIC) that will coordinate and integrate outputs from the Informatics Technology Platform Centers (supported under RFA-EB-15-003)
of the Pediatric Research using Integrated Sensor Monitoring Systems (PRISMS) Program, which also includes an initiative to fund development of sensors for
pediatric asthma populations (supported under RFA-EB-15-002). It is expected that this DSCIC will focus on coordinating and integrating data acquired on
environmental and behavioral pediatric exposure factors and physiological parameters in natural environments, as well as developing tools to process the data.
A successful DSCIC will ensure consistent annotation of data and tools generated within the PRISMS program, incorporate (without replicating databases)
relevant non-PRISMS data into the PRISMS resource; support integration of relevant data and tools to allow for seamless exploration of the PRISMS program’s
output by a broad range of biomedical researchers; support linkages to outside knowledge bases, data portals, and resources; support training in integrated
sensor monitoring data science skills; build innovative access and query tools to disparate databases hosting multiple data types; and disseminate the resulting
tools and resources to the broad range of biomedical researchers. This program will use the NIH U24 Resource-Related Research Projects – Cooperative

The sponsors invite applications to stimulate and foster a wide range of basic, clinical, and translational studies on pain as they relate to the missions of these
ICs. New advances are needed in every area of pain research, from the micro perspective of molecular sciences to the macro perspective of behavioral and
social sciences. Although great strides have been made in some areas, such as the identification of neural pathways of pain, the experience of pain and the
challenge of treatment have remained uniquely individual and unsolved. Furthermore, our understanding of how and why individuals transition to a chronic pain
state after an acute injury is limited. Research to address these issues conducted by interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research teams is strongly
encouraged, as is research from underrepresented, minority, disabled, or women investigators. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award

resultant wealth of data generated by these studies often provides unique, cost-effective opportunities to investigate additional research questions or develop
new analytical approaches secondary to a project’s originally intended purpose. Data are not limited to those collected under NEI support but such data are of
the highest programmatic interest. The R21 may be used to develop new statistical methodologies or to test hypotheses using existing data, but this FOA may
not be used to support the collection of new data. This program will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism.

National Institutes of Health (NIH) invites basic biologic research on damage to the peripheral nervous system instigated by pharmacologic cancer treatments,
known as chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The majority of acquired peripheral neuropathy research has focused on diabetic and inherited
diseases; this FOA intends to stimulate neuroscience researchers to apply their expertise from studying these other neuropathies to the injuries incurred by
cancer treatments. More data is necessary to understand the mechanisms of neuronal damage and to identify the targets instrumental to CIPN initiation and
maintenance. Preclinical research that focuses not only on peripheral neuropathic pain but also on neurosensory symptoms such as paresthesias and
peripheral anesthesias is invited. The ultimate goal of this FOA is to lead to a molecular understanding of CIPN that allows for the rational development of
interventions that will treat or prevent CIPN. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) invites applications to support (a) pilot or feasibility studies of new or adapted interventions to prevent HIV infection
among populations where substance use may be a contributing factor; (b) pilot or feasibility studies of new or adapted interventions to improve the care of HIV
infection among populations where substance use is prevalent, including interventions that integrate treatment for substance use disorders and HIV infection; or
(c) pilot or feasibility studies to increase the scale, uptake, delivery, and/or quality of HIV prevention or care interventions with established evidence of efficacy.
Both primary and secondary prevention will be supported. The full range of substance use will be considered including problematic episodic use and substance
use disorders, as well as a full range of substances and modes of administration. The most important consideration is that substance use may affect
transmission directly as in the case of injection drug use or may affect transmission risk behavior. Domestic and overseas populations will be considered, with
particular attention to populations with disproportionate burden of HIV infection and those where HIV infection and/or drug use are emergent. This FOA will

National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) invites applications proposing pilot studies to obtain data that is critical for the design of robust clinical trials.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) should be used to fill gaps in scientific knowledge necessary to develop a competitive full-scale clinical trial.
Appropriate pilot studies might demonstrate feasibility of an intervention or an experimental design, estimate intervention parameters, or gather other data
important for the design of a trial. Applicants who propose solely to write a protocol or manual of operations or to develop infrastructure for a clinical trial will not
be considered appropriate for to this announcement. Applications must demonstrate that the proposed pilot studies are both necessary and sufficient to permit
the design of the clinical trial. During the evaluation of applications submitted to this FOA, the review group will also consider the significance and potential
public health impact of the full-scale clinical trial that would be proposed following the R34 award period. The NHLBI anticipates that the R34 award period will
yield robust investigator-initiated clinical trial grant applications for the evaluation of interventions for the treatment or prevention of heart, lung, blood, or sleep
disorders. This FOA will utilize the R34 grant mechanism.

development of alcohol-related diseases and end-organ injuries. As used here, the term exRNA refers to RNA molecules circulating outside of cells, either

role of exRNA communication in the initiation, progression and maintenance of the diverse medical disorders caused by excessive, long-term alcohol
consumption. In the future this knowledge may be critical in the diagnosis, treatment and management of vulnerable patient populations debilitated by the vast
array of alcohol-induced pathologies and enable clinicians to improve disease outcomes and, consequently, public health. In addition, research supported by
this FOA may also provide information on the mechanistic basis of the health benefits of moderate alcohol consumption. The sponsor invites applications This

Synopsis National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) invite applications that propose to study the
developing brain or brain areas that play significant roles in mediating emotional and motivated behavior and in substance use and dependence. All stages of
brain development are of interest, but a new emphasis of the current reissue of this initiative is to support basic neuroscience research on fundamental
mechanisms of brain development during prepuberty and the adolescent period in relation to the problems of substance abuse and co-morbidity with psychiatric
disorders. Topics of interest pertaining to brain development of this initiative include, but are not limited to, the euphoric properties of abused substances,
actions of psychotherapeutic agents, and their consequences on memory, cognitive and emotional processes. An additional major goal of this initiative is to
understand how exposure to substances of abuse affects the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying nervous system development and neural circuit
functions implicated in substance use and addiction. This program will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) invites applications for research to improve self-management and quality of life in children and adolescents with
chronic conditions. Managing a chronic condition is an unremitting responsibility for children and their families. Children with a chronic condition and their
families have a long-term responsibility for self-management. This FOA encourages research that takes into consideration various factors that influence selfmanagement such as individual differences, biological and psychological factors, family and sociocultural context, family-community dynamics, healthcare
system factors, technological advances, and the role of the environment. This FOA is restricted to studies of children and adolescents ages 8 to 21 with chronic
conditions as children younger are less likely to manage their health conditions. Researchers can focus on any age group within this range but investigators
must demonstrate that the approach is appropriate to developmental stage. Studies of chronic mental illness or serious cognitive disability are beyond the scope
of this FOA. This program will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

chronic conditions. Managing a chronic condition is an unremitting responsibility for children and their families. Children with a chronic condition and their
families have a long-term responsibility for self-management. This FOA encourages research that takes into consideration various factors that influence selfmanagement such as individual differences, biological and psychological factors, family and sociocultural context, family-community dynamics, healthcare
system factors, technological advances, and the role of the environment. This FOA is restricted to studies of children and adolescents ages 8 to 21 with chronic
conditions as children younger are less likely to manage their health conditions. Researchers can focus on any age group within this range but investigators
must demonstrate that the approach is appropriate to developmental stage. Studies of chronic mental illness or serious cognitive disability are beyond the scope
of this FOA. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) invites applications that propose to study the neuroimmune mechanisms of alcoholrelated disorders. Studies using animal models and post-mortem human alcoholic brains suggest that alcohol exposure alters the neuroimmune system in the
brain. However, it remains unclear how the altered neuroimmune signaling contributes to brain functional and behavioral changes associated with alcohol
dependence. Recent studies reveal that neuroimmune molecules are expressed in neurons and glia, and play an important role in modulating synaptic function,
neurodevelopment, and neuroendocrine function. These neuromodulatory properties, together with their essential roles in neuroinflammation, provide a new
frame work to understand the role of neuroimmune factors in mediating neuroadaptation and behavioral phenotypes associated with alcohol use disorders.
Studies supported by this FOA will provide fundamental insights of neuroimmune mechanisms underlying brain functional and behavioral changes induced by
alcohol. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

neurodevelopment, and neuroendocrine function. These neuromodulatory properties, together with their essential roles in neuroinflammation, provide a new
frame work to understand the role of neuroimmune factors in mediating neuroadaptation and behavioral phenotypes associated with alcohol use disorders.
Studies supported by this FOA will provide fundamental insights of neuroimmune mechanisms underlying brain functional and behavioral changes induced by
alcohol. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH)and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications for research and development of technologies in
biomedical computing, informatics, and Big Data Science that will support rapid progress in areas of scientific opportunity in biomedical research. It is expected
that this research and development is conducted in the context of important biomedical and behavioral research problems. As such, applications are intended to
develop enabling technologies that could apply to the interests of most NIH Institutes and Centers and range from basic biomedicine and including research to
all relevant organ systems and diseases. Major themes of research include collaborative environments; data integration; analysis and modeling methodologies;
and novel computer science and statistical approaches. New opportunities are also emerging as large and complex data sets are becoming increasingly
available to the research community. This initiative aims to address biomedical research areas in biomedical computing, informatics, and Big Data science
through the early stage development of new software, tools and related resources, as well as the fundamental research (e.g., methodologies and approaches)
leading up to that development. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: The sponsors invite applications that employ innovative research to identify mechanisms of influence and/or promote positive sustainable health
behavior(s) in children and youth (birth to age 21). Positive health behaviors may include: developing healthy sleep patterns, developing effective self-regulation
strategies, adaptive decision-making in risk situations, practicing proper dental hygiene, eating a balanced and nutritious diet, engaging in age-appropriate
physical activity and/or participating in healthy relationships. Applications to promote positive health behavior(s) should target social and cultural factors,
including, but not limited to: schools, families, communities, population, food industry, age-appropriate learning tools and games, social media, social
networking, technology and mass media. Topics to be addressed in this announcement include: effective, sustainable processes for influencing young people to
make healthy behavior choices; identification of the appropriate stage of influence for learning sustainable lifelong health behaviors; the role of technology and
new media in promoting healthy behavior; identification of factors that support healthy behavior development in vulnerable populations, identification of barriers
to healthy behaviors; and, identification of mechanisms and mediators that are common to the development of a range of habitual health behaviors. Given the
many factors involved in developing sustainable health behaviors, applications from multidisciplinary teams are strongly encouraged. The ultimate goal of this
FOA is to promote research that identifies and enhances processes that promote sustainable positive behavior or changes social and cultural norms that
influence health and future health behaviors. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications that propose interventions to significantly improve
medication adherence in individuals. Applications may target medication adherence in the context of treatment for a single illness or chronic condition (e.g.,
hypertension), to stave off a disease recurrence (e.g., cancer) or for multiple comorbid conditions (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, alcohol use disorders and
HIV/AIDS). A well-articulated theoretical or conceptual framework is key for applications encouraged under this announcement. Primary outcomes of the
research can include a patient self-report of medication adherence, but must also at least one non-self-report measure of medication adherence (e.g., pharmacy
refill records, electronic monitoring, etc.). In addition, applications are encouraged to include a relevant health outcome or biomarker (e.g., blood pressure, viral
load in HIV-infected individuals, cholesterol levels, HbA1c) that is expected to be affected by changes in the targeted adherence behavior. For diseases without
identified biomarkers, inclusion of a clinical assessment (e.g., a medicine blood level, diagnostic interview or an independent clinician rating of the symptoms
and behaviors) may be considered. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), National Institute on Aging (NIA), and National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication
Disorders (NIDCD) invite applications for research in self-management focused across conditions. A recent report from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) identifies
the epidemic of chronic condition as the nation’s leading health challenge and calls for cross-cutting, coordinated public health actions for “living well with
chronic illness”. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) addresses that recommendation by describing an initiative that focuses on self-management
as a mainstream science in order to reduce the burden of chronic illnesses/conditions. Self-management is the ability of the individual, in conjunction with
family, community, and healthcare professionals, to manage symptoms, treatments, lifestyle changes, and psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual consequences
associated with a chronic illness or condition. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) and National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) invite applications that propose to
conduct mechanistic studies on the relationship between excessive alcohol drinking, alcohol dependence and pain. An association between chronic pain
conditions and alcohol dependence has been revealed in numerous studies with episodes of alcohol abuse antedating chronic pain in some people and alcohol
dependence emerging after the onset of chronic pain in others. Pain transmission and alcohol’s reinforcing effects share overlapping neural substrates giving
rise to the possibility that chronic pain states significantly affect alcohol use patterns and promote the development of dependence and addiction. In addition,
long term alcohol intoxication and alcohol dependence induce pain symptoms and may exacerbate chronic pain arising from other sources. The objective of this
FOA is to understand genetic, pharmacological and learning mechanisms underlying the association between the propensity to drink excessively alcohol and
pain responses. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institute on Aging (NIA) invites applications that propose basic, clinical, and epidemiological outcomes research on the impact of age on
the development of, diagnosis, and management of diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) complications in older persons or animal models. Research
may focus on, but is not limited to 1) the epidemiology of increasing incidence and prevalence of DM with advancing age, particularly regarding potential racialethnic disparities, 2) the elucidation of age-related mechanisms predisposing older adults to diabetes and resultant CVD , 3) understanding the role of aging in
increased incidence and severity of CVD outcomes in older diabetics, and 4) determining age-specific prevention, screening, diagnostic, and management
strategies of DM in older persons and its CVD complications. Research supported by this initiative is expected to elucidate the role of aging mechanisms that
underlie the increased vulnerability of older adults to DM and its CVD complications and to provide evidence-based guidance to improve more appropriate
diagnostic criteria, risk stratification, and intervention recommendations to prevent the onset, or improve short- and long-term outcomes, of DM and CVD in older
persons. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

next-generation systems, (c) quality assurance and quality control, (d) validation and correlation studies, (e) quantitative imaging, and (f) related research
resources. Because applications should be translational in scope, this FOA defines innovation as a coherent translational plan to deliver emerging or new
capabilities for preclinical or clinical use that are not yet broadly employed in preclinical or clinical settings. In addition, innovation may be considered as delivery
of a new capability to end users. The partnership on each application should establish an inter-disciplinary, multi-institutional research team to work in strategic
alliance to implement a coherent strategy to develop and translate their system to solve their chosen cancer problem. This FOA will support clinical trials that
test functionality, optimize, and validate the performance of the proposed translational work. This FOA does not intend to support either actual commercial
production or basic research projects that do not emphasize translation. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) invites applications for research that develops and tests optimal palliative and end-of-life care interventions
(models of care) based on measurable outcomes. Palliative Care and End-of-Life (PCEOL) interventions are increasingly needed for all individuals with Life
Limiting Illnesses (LLI's) in some form or other, including those who are culturally diverse or aging. Adverse impacts have been shown to extend to the
caregivers and families of patients with LLI’s. Many individuals with LLI's also may concurrently be suffering from multiple complex comorbidities (MCC's),
placing an increasing burden on health, health systems and costs. Few prospective interventions/models of care, especially those utilizing a randomized trial
design, are testing the effectiveness of palliative and end-of-life care interventions. A wide variability exists among interventions delivered under the umbrella of
“palliative or end-of-life care”. In addition, a variety of outcomes are being (or have been) assessed by different studies, when increasingly, the scientific need in
this area is to examine and test a finite number of key outcomes (i.e., health, morbidity, quality of life, satisfaction with care) that are comparable across trials,
studies, and programs. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invites applications pilot research consistent with NIMH's priorities for: 1) effectiveness research on
preventive and therapeutic interventions with previously demonstrated efficacy, for use with broader target populations or for use in community practice settings,
and 2) research on the development and preliminary testing of innovative services interventions. Applications should provide resources for evaluating the
feasibility, tolerability, acceptability and safety of approaches to improve mental health or functional outcomes, or modify risk factors, and for obtaining the
preliminary data needed as a pre-requisite to a larger-scale intervention trial (e.g., comparative effectiveness study, practical trial) or large-scale services study.
In this pilot phase of effectiveness research, NIMH places highest priority on approaches that can be justified in terms of their potential to substantially impact
practice and public health and approaches that are empirically grounded. Adaptations or augmentations of efficacious interventions should only be undertaken if
there is an empirical rationale for the adaptation target and for the corresponding mechanism by which the adapted intervention or augmentation is expected to
substantially enhance outcomes.This FOA is intended to support pilot effectiveness trials that are designed to explicitly address whether the intervention
engages the target/mechanism that is presumed to underlie the intervention effects. This FOA will use the NIH R34 Planning Grant award mechanism.

and to test hypotheses regarding moderators, mediators, and mechanisms of action of these interventions. This FOA supports clinical trials designed to test the
therapeutic value of treatment and preventive interventions for which there is already evidence of efficacy, for use in community and practice settings.
Applications might include research to evaluate the effectiveness or increase the clinical impact of pharmacologic, somatic, psychosocial (psychotherapeutic,
behavioral), device -based, rehabilitative and combination interventions to prevent or treat mental illness. This FOA also supports clinical trials to test patient-,
provider-, organizational-, or systems -level services interventions to improve service access, engagement, quality, coordination, or delivery, with the goal of
improved outcomes at the individual and population level. The intervention research covered under this announcement is explicitly focused on practice-relevant
questions. This FOA should be used when two or more sites are needed to complete the study. Accordingly, the collaborating studies share a specific protocol
across the sites and are organized as such in order to increase sample size, accelerate recruitment, or increase sample diversity and representation. Each site
has its own Program Director/Principal Investigator and the program provides a mechanism for cross-site coordination, quality control, database management,
statistical analysis, and reporting. This FOA will use the NIH R01 Research Project Grant award mechanism.

SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invites applications for confirmatory efficacy testing of non-pharmacological therapeutic and preventive
interventions for mental disorders in adults and children through an experimental therapeutics approach. Under this FOA, trials must be designed so that
results, whether positive or negative, will provide information of high scientific utility and will support "go/no-go" decisions about further development,
effectiveness testing, or dissemination of the intervention. Intervention studies include, but are not limited to behavioral, cognitive, interpersonal, and devicebased approaches, or a combination thereof. Interventions appropriate for efficacy testing must be based on a compelling scientific rationale, previous
demonstration that the intervention engages and alters the hypothesized mechanism of action, a preliminary efficacy signal, and must address an unmet
therapeutic need. Support will be provided for a trial of the intervention's efficacy that includes measurement of the hypothesized mechanism of action and the
relationship between change in the mechanism and change in functional or clinical effects. Ultimately, this FOA is intended to support a sufficiently- powered
efficacy trial to determine the intervention's potential for significant clinical benefit. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

SYNOPSIS: National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications proposing research projects on the advanced development of emerging molecular and cellular
analysis technologies and technical/analytical validation in an appropriate cancer-relevant biological system. An emerging technology is defined as one that has
passed the pilot developmental stage and shows promise, but has not yet been significantly evaluated within the context of its intended use. If successful, these
technologies would accelerate research in cancer biology, cancer treatment and diagnosis, early detection and screening, cancer control and epidemiology,
and/or cancer health disparities. This FOA solicits projects where proof-of-principle of the proposed technology or methodology has been established and
supportive preliminary data are available. Projects proposed to this FOA should reflect the potential to produce a molecular analysis technology with a major
impact in a broad area of cancer-relevant research. Projects proposing to use established technologies where the novelty resides in the biological or clinical
question being pursued are not appropriate for this solicitation and will not be reviewed. This program will use the NIH R33 Exploratory/Developmental Grants
Phase II award mechanism.

National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invites applications to participate in the National Cooperative Reprogrammed Cell Research Groups (NCRCRG)
program. The purpose of the NCRCRG program is to create multidisciplinary research groups, in partnership with academia and industry, to use patient-derived
reprogrammed cells to develop validated platforms for identifying novel targets and developing new therapeutics or diagnostic tools to reduce the burden of
mental illness. The collaborations will be pre-competitive, meaning that they lie at the interface between basic academic research and proprietary industrial
research and involve cooperation between groups that might otherwise be competitors, with a focus on optimizing tools and measures needed for successful
translational research. The Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages applications to further develop promising cellular
differentiation/characterization protocols and/or disease-relevant assays using patient-derived reprogrammed cells (e.g., induced pluripotent stem cells or
iPSCs, induced neuronal cells or iNCs). Critical features of these applications should be (1) a strong emphasis on developing methodology that is robust and
replicable across several performance sites, and (2) cross-paradigm validation to yield predictive value for pathophysiology. This FOA will utilize the NIH U19

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications for research projects designed to solve specific problems and paradoxes in cancer research
identified by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Provocative Questions initiative. These problems and paradoxes phrased as questions are not intended to
represent the full range of NCI's priorities in cancer research. Rather, they are meant to challenge cancer researchers to think about and elucidate specific
problems in key areas of cancer research that are deemed important but have not received sufficient attention. Some of these "Provocative Questions" (PQs)
stem from intriguing but older, neglected observations that have never been adequately explored. Other PQs are built on more recent findings that are
perplexing or paradoxical, revealing important gaps in current knowledge. Finally, some PQs reflect problems that traditionally have been thought to be
intractable but that now may be open to investigations using new strategies and recent technical advances. The current issuance of the PQ Initiative involves an
updated set of 12 PQs. Each research project proposed in response to this FOA must be focused on addressing one particular research problem defined by
one specific PQ selected from the list. Projects proposed to address specific PQs may use strategies that incorporate ideas and approaches from multiple
disciplines, as appropriate. Transdisciplinary projects are encouraged as long as they serve the scientific focus of the specific PQ chosen. This FOA will use the

SYNOPSIS: National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications for research projects designed to solve specific problems and paradoxes in cancer research
identified by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Provocative Questions initiative. These problems and paradoxes phrased as questions are not intended to
represent the full range of NCI's priorities in cancer research. Rather, they are meant to challenge cancer researchers to think about and elucidate specific
problems in key areas of cancer research that are deemed important but have not received sufficient attention. Some of these "Provocative Questions" (PQs)
stem from intriguing but older, neglected observations that have never been adequately explored. Other PQs are built on more recent findings that are
perplexing or paradoxical, revealing important gaps in current knowledge. Finally, some PQs reflect problems that traditionally have been thought to be
intractable but that now may be open to investigations using new strategies and recent technical advances. The current issuance of the PQ Initiative involves an
updated set of 12 PQs. Each research project proposed in response to this FOA must be focused on addressing one particular research problem defined by
one specific PQ selected from the list. Projects proposed to address specific PQs may use strategies that incorporate ideas and approaches from multiple
disciplines, as appropriate. Transdisciplinary projects are encouraged as long as they serve the scientific focus of the specific PQ chosen. This FOA will use the

SYNOPSIS:</br>The goal of NASA’s Living With a Star (LWS) Program is to develop the scientific understanding needed for the U.S. to effectively
address those aspects of Heliophysics science that may affect life and society. LWS Science solicits proposals for fundamental science that will lead to a
physics-based understanding of the integral system linking the Sun to the Solar System,including the impact on the heliosphere, planetary
magnetospheres, and ionospheres. Achieving an understanding of those aspects of the Sun-Solar System that have direct impact on life and society
behooves the LWS program to tackle strategic large-scale problems that cross (traditionally separate) discipline and technique boundaries (e.g., data
analysis, theory, modeling,etc.).

SYNOPSIS:The GRACE mission is an innovative and advanced technology mission to measure the static and time varying components of the Earth’s
gravitational field. The time-dependent component of gravity is also affected by processes on a wide range of scales, most of them involving water
transfer. Determining and understanding these transfers is a high priority in studying climate and related phenomena. Processes causing large enough
transfers to be measurable include ocean circulation, annual cycles of snow pack and groundwater, postglacial rebound, sea-level rise, and melting of the
ice sheets.
The GRACE mission data and products have multidisciplinary reach with expected contributions to solid Earth science, polar science, physical
oceanography, hydrology, and atmospheric science. The high-resolution static and temporal gravity fields measured by GRACE provide first ever

The mission of the Office on Women's Health (OWH) is to provide national leadership and coordination to improve the health of women and girls through
policy, education and innovative model programs. The Department of Health and Human Services has identified violence prevention as a major goal for
improving health across several initiatives, including Healthy People. Further efforts are needed to ensure that all aspects of the health care system
respond appropriately to women and girls who are victims of interpersonal violence. According to data from the CDC, women are disproportionately
affected by intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and stalking; and victims experience many negative impacts and health consequences.
(http://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/nisvs-fact-sheet-2014.pdf; accessed January 10, 2015). Preliminary work supported by OWH highlighted the
need for more collaborative violence prevention and health-related programs and projects. Previous work sponsored by OWH has illustrated the need to

Synopsis
SYNOPSIS:</br>IceBridge (http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/icebridge/index.html) is a NASA airborne mission making altimetry, radar, and other
geophysical measurements to monitor and characterize major portions of the Earth’s cryosphere. The Earth’s cryosphere is in a period of rapid change.
Understanding these changes, their causes, and impacts are critically important to understanding the Earth as a global system. Data collected under the
IceBridge program has improved our knowledge of the contribution of the world’s major ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica to sea level rise and is
making fundamental contributions to understanding changes occurring in the extent and thickness of the polar sea ice.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS:Nearing nine years of active service, the radar carrying CloudSat and backscatter lidar carrying Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder
Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) satellites have provided unprecedented information on the vertical profile of clouds, cloud liquid water, and aerosol
particles over the globe. Taken individually, the CloudSat mission's primary science goal is to furnish data needed to evaluate and improve the way
clouds are parameterized in global models, thereby contributing to better predictions of clouds and thus to the poorly understood cloud-climate feedback
problem (http://cloudsat.atmos.colostate.edu/). For CALIPSO, the satellite was designed to help scientists answer significant questions and provide new
information regarding atmospheric transport of airborne particles and air pollutants, as well as the effects of clouds and aerosol particles on Earth's
changing climate (http://www-calipso.larc.nasa.gov/). The greatest strength in CloudSat and CALIPSO, however, comes from their inclusion in the NASA

science measurement requirements. ESTO technology investments attempt to address the full science measurement process: from instruments needed
to make observations to data systems and information products and tools thatmake those observations useful.
There has been and continues to be a need for new technologies and measurement concepts to be validated in space prior to use in a science mission.
This is necessary because the space environment imposes stringent conditions on components and systems, some of which cannot be fully tested on the
ground or in airborne systems. The In-Space Validation of Earth Science Technologies (InVEST) program element is intended to fill that gap. Validation of
Earth science technologies in space will help reduce the risk of new technologies in future Earth science missions. No funding is available for research

SYNOPSIS: The BIGDATA program seeks novel approaches in computer science, statistics, computational science, and mathematics, along with innovative
applications in domain science, including social and behavioral sciences, geosciences, education, biology, the physical sciences, and engineering that lead
towards the further development of the interdisciplinary field of data science. The solicitation invites two types of proposals: "Foundations" (F): those developing
or studying fundamental theories, techniques, methodologies, technologies of broad applicability to Big Data problems; and "Innovative Applications" (IA): those
developing techniques, methodologies and technologies of key importance to a Big Data problem directly impacting at least one specific application. Therefore,
projects in this category must be collaborative, involving researchers from domain disciplines and one or more methodological disciplines, e.g., computer
science, statistics, mathematics, simulation and modeling, etc. While Innovative Applications (IA) proposals may address critical big data challenges within a
specific domain, a high level of innovation is expected in all proposals and proposals should, in general, strive to provide solutions with potential for a broader
impact on data science and its applications. IA proposals may focus on novel theoretical analysis and/or on experimental evaluation of techniques and
methodologies within a specific domain. Proposals in all areas of sciences and engineering covered by participating directorates at NSF are welcome.

Temporarily Suspended: Two major survey reports carried out by the National Academy of Sciences have identified the need for a Giant Segmented Mirror
Telescope (GSMT) to address frontier astrophysical research questions in a wide array of subfields. This solicitation invites proposals to establish an initial
framework for a U.S. community partnership in a proposed GSMT deriving from past, current, or potential future NSF support for design work, construction,
instrumentation, and/or operations. Based on a detailed competitive review of the resulting proposals, an award will be made for further development of a
public/private/international partnership model under a cooperative agreement between a GSMT project and NSF. During the award period, GSMT project
management and representatives from NSF and the U.S. astronomical community are expected to refine the roles of NSF and the community in project
development, engage in planning science and engineering operations, prepare for potential future Federal funding opportunities after the start of the next
decade. Selection as an awardee in this process does not imply that a GSMT will be approved for further funding.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: Temporarily Suspended: The NSF Partnerships for Innovation (PFI) program within the Division of Industrial Innovation and Partnerships (IIP) is an
umbrella for two complementary subprograms, Accelerating Innovation Research (AIR) and Building Innovation Capacity (BIC). Both programs are concerned
with the movement of academic research discoveries into the marketplace, although each focuses on different stages along the innovation spectrum. The
PFI:AIR program has two additional subprograms: the PFI:AIR-Technology Translation (See NSF 13-575) and PFI:AIR- Research Alliance (this solicitation).
This PFI: AIR-Research Alliance (RA) solicitation is intended to accelerate the translation and transfer of existing research discoveries into competitive
technologies and commercial realities by leveraging the investments NSF has made in research alliances (e.g., consortia such as Engineering Research
Centers, Industry University Cooperative Research Centers, Science and Technology Centers, Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers, Materials
Research Science and Engineering Centers, Centers for Chemical Innovation, Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation grantees and others) and
catalyzing academic-based innovation ecosystems. The goal is that these synergistic partnerships and collaborations between government, academia, and
other public and private entities will result in new wealth and the building of strong local and regional economies.

SYNOPSIS: Temporarily Suspended: The National Science Foundation (NSF) announces a fourth year of a program on collaborative research and education in
the area of scalable nanomanufacturing, including the long-term societal implications of the large-scale implementation of nanomanufacturing innovations. This
program is in response to and is a component of the National Nanotechnology Initiative Signature Initiative: Sustainable Nanomanufacturing - Creating the
Industries of the Future (http://www.nano.gov/node/611.) Although many nanofabrication techniques have demonstrated the ability to fabricate small quantities
of nanomaterials, nanostructures and nanodevices for characterization and evaluation purposes, the emphasis of the scalable nanomanufacturing program is
on research to overcome the key scientific and technological barriers that prevent the production of useful nanomaterials, nanostructures, devices and systems
at an industrially relevant scale, reliably, and at low cost and within environmental, health and safety guidelines. Competitive proposals will incorporate three
elements in their research plans: a persuasive case that the nanomaterials, nanostructures, devices or systems to be produced have or are likely to have
sufficient demand to justify eventual scale-up; a clearly identified set of research issues for science and engineering solutions that must be addressed to enable
the production of high quality nano-enabled products at low cost; and a compelling research plan with clear research objectives and approaches to overcome
the identified research issues.

consequences, and complexities of human social and cultural variability. Anthropological research spans a wide gamut, and contemporary cultural anthropology
is an arena in which diverse research traditions and methodologies are valid. Recognizing the breadth of the field’s contributions to science, the Cultural
Anthropology Program welcomes proposals for empirically grounded, theoretically engaged, and methodologically sophisticated research in all sub-fields of
cultural anthropology. Because the National Science Foundation’s mandate is to support basic research, the NSF Cultural Anthropology Program does not fund

INSPIRE has no targeted themes and serves as a funding mechanism for proposals that are
required both to be interdisciplinary and to exhibit potentially transformative research (IDR and PTR, respectively). Complementing existing NSF efforts,
INSPIRE was created to handle proposals whose: scientific advances lie outside the scope of a single program or discipline, such that substantial funding
support from more than one program or discipline is necessary; lines of research promise transformational advances; and prospective discoveries reside at the
interfaces of disciplinary boundaries that may not be recognized through traditional review or co-review.

The Transportation Research Board's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) has issued a request for proposals (RFP) to develop a
guidance document with related resources to advance the implementation of the Toward Zero Deaths (TZD) national strategy for use by the safety community.
The successful research team will develop an execution plan and budget, and host a national forum exchange workshop. These products will support a
systematic integrated implementation of the TZD approach to highway safety. The proposer should specifically develop a detailed budget for the Toward Zero
Deaths National Strategy forum and is responsible for all logistical planning of the workshop and identification and invitation of the various safety organizational
stakeholders. The research team will be expected to deliver presentations at a total of four AASHTO and/or TRB committee meetings during the course of the
research project or upon completion as recommended by the research team or panel in collaboration with NCHRP. During the development of the TZD national
strategy, the TZD Steering Committee and NCHRP have had a unique relationship that has resulted in collaboration during the development of materials related
to TZD. Proposers should consider the need to involve the Steering Committee during the development of materials for the project, and include in their proposal
reviews if necessary or appropriate, presentations to or discussions with this group, in addition to the planned interaction with the NCHRP panel. While the
NCHRP panel is overseeing the project, it is recognized that the Steering Committee is an important stakeholder in the effort. Proposers should plan to submit
an amplified work plan for approval by the panel, followed by a draft annotated outline for the implementation guidance for panel approval prior to proceeding
with the work plan and developing the guidance. Proposers should consider the resources available under the following: -- NCHRP 17-51(03), "Communication
