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.
Indirect Costs
Funding This program will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism. Applications submitted in response to this announcement must be submitted
electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide. The total project period for an
application submitted in response to this funding opportunity may not exceed two years. Direct costs are limited to $275,000 over the two years of the R21
award, with no more than $200,000 in direct costs allowed in any single year. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application
to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the
direct cost limitation. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending March 8, 2013; NIH Guide, Week Ending January 31, 2014. (kww)
Deadline Notes The deadline for receipt of optional letters of intent is thirty days prior to the application deadline. The deadlines for receipt of full applications are: February 4,
2014; March 3, 2014; April 1, 2014; May 1, 2014; June 2, 2014; July 1, 2014; August 1, 2014; September 2, 2014; October 1, 2014; November 3, 2014;

SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invites applications to identify, optimize, and evaluate measures of neurophysiological processes that
are disrupted within or across mental disorders and which can be assessed in animals and humans. The goal is to support further development of these
measures as assays for evaluating potential new drug and device therapies and their targets. Data will also reveal assay measures where the performance
between preclinical species and humans is dissimilar, thus establishing a firm basis for limiting speculative extrapolations of preclinical findings. Ultimately, the
goal of this FOA is to improve the efficiency of the therapeutic development process by addressing inconsistencies between the preclinical screening pipeline
and clinical evaluation of new treatment candidates and thereby hasten the development of more effective treatments for mental disorders. This FOA will use
the NIH UH2/UH3 Phase Innovation Awards Cooperative Agreement award mechanism.
Indirect Costs
Funding This FOA will use the NIH UH2/UH3 Phase Innovation Awards Cooperative Agreement award mechanism. Applications submitted in response to this
announcement must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide.
NIMH intends to commit $1.5 million in FY 2016 to fund 3-4 awards. Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed
project. The UH2 period may not exceed 2 years, the UH3 period may not exceed 3 years. The total duration of the UH2 and UH3 phases may not exceed 4
years. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award
will also vary. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending January 16,

SYNOPSIS: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) invite applications designed to stimulate
the development of innovative tools and strategies for curing HIV infection. HIV establishes latent infection in long-lived cells that form a reservoir of virus that
persists in infected individuals even after years of treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Curing HIV infection requires innovative strategies
to identify and eliminate these reservoir cells. The task is especially difficult given the lack of HIV protein expression during latency and the low frequency of
latently infected cells during treatment. Novel approaches are therefore sought to efficiently monitor and specifically target reservoirs of latently infected cells to
facilitate the testing of strategies to cure HIV infection in vivo. This FOA will utilize the NIH R21/R33 Phased Innovation Award mechanism.
Indirect Costs
Funding This FOA will utilize the NIH R21/R33 Phased Innovation Award mechanism. Applications submitted in response to this announcement must be submitted
electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide. Support for the R21 phase cannot
exceed two years and total direct costs are limited to $275,000 over the R21 two-year period, with a maximum of $200,000 in direct costs allowed in any single
year. The R33 award phase is limited to $300,000 in direct costs per year and cannot exceed three years. The NIAID anticipates that a maximum of fifty percent
(50%) of the funded R21 phase awards will progress to the R33 award. The total project period for an application submitted in response to this FOA cannot
exceed five years. Awards will support milestone-driven exploratory/feasibility “proof-of-concept” studies (two-year R21 phase), with possible rapid transition to
expanded development (three-year R33 phase). CFDA#s: 93.855; 93.856;93.242. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending November 21, 2014. (kww)

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications hat strengthen the science of multilevel effects of cancer care interventions by addressing the
problem of incomplete follow-up to abnormal screening tests for breast, colorectal, cervical and lung cancers. The goals of this FOA are two-fold. First, this FOA
seeks to advance the science of multilevel interventions in three ways: a) by establishing a common conceptualization of levels and the associated level-specific
factors that affect practice; b) by standardizing metrics of the levels and their main effects on other levels and the individuals needing follow-up care; and c) by
developing and standardizing the analysis of the effect of interventions on the individuals, groups, and organizations responsible for intervention
implementation. Second, this FOA encourages applications that test interventions to improve the follow-up of abnormal screening in one or more ways,
including: a) measuring multilevel effects of single-level interventions; b) comparing single vs. multilevel interventions; and c) testing multilevel interventions.
This program will use the NIH U01 Research Project Cooperative Agreements award mechanism.
Indirect Costs
budgets are expected to differ, reflecting the actual needs of the proposed projects. It is anticipated and encouraged, however, that most requests be in the
range of $450,000 to $500,000 direct costs per year commensurate with the scope and complexity of the proposed projects. Larger budgets may be requested
but no request may exceed $750,000 in direct costs per year. The total project period may not exceed 4 years. Because the nature and scope of the proposed
research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. F&A costs requested by consortium
participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. CFDA#s: 93.394, 93.395. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending January 30, 2014. (kww)

112990 PRESOLICITATION NOTICE The National Institute on Aging (NIA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Department of Health and Human Services
(DHHS) intends to re-compete a requirement currently being performed under NIA Contract HHSN271201000006I. This procurement is being competed under
full and open competitive procedures under FAR Part 15. It is anticipated that a single Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contract will be awarded
on or about August 1, 2015 with a 10-year period of performance. It is expected that a solicitation will be issued on or about September 30, 2014.
BACKGROUND: Current and projected experiments using rodents to model the aging processes and age-related diseases in humans require animals of
defined genotype and controlled environmental and health status. Only with the meticulous, long-term control of genetic and environmental variables is it
possible to maintain relevant animal models that may be used to study many of the biological and behavioral processes in aging. Therefore,a continuous supply
of genetically defined, well characterized inbred and hybrid laboratory animals is essential for a program of research on aging. In 2010, NIA awarded a 9-year
contract for the development and maintenance of a colony of genetically defined aged mice. This RFP contemplates award of a follow-on contract. PURPOSE
AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this contract is to develop, maintainand distribute a standing colony of aged, genetically defined laboratory mice for use by
investigators in studies of aging. This colony is to be developed and maintained within controlled and defined barrier environments where animals are monitored
and characterized for disease status and markers of genetic purity. PROJECT REQUIRMENTS: The Contractor shall develop, maintain and distribute a
standing colony of aged mice of NIA-specified genotypes for use by investigators in studies of aging. The expected duration of this colony, and therefore of this
contract, is ten years. During years 1 through 2, animals shall be entered into thecolony, but few animals shall be removed from the colony except for the
purposes of monitoring health and genetic purity. However, if the need should arise, animals may be distributed from the colony at any time at the direction of
the Contractor Officer's Representative (COR). During years 3 through 7, animals shall continue to be entered into the colony and animals shall be distributed to
investigators. This should be a period of stable operation with young animals entering the colony at approximately the same rate as older animals leave the
colony due to distribution and normal attrition. The final period, years 8-10, will serveas the colony close-out period. Animals shall be maintained and disbursed,
but entry of animals shall cease at the beginning of year 8 or when entries begin ina renewal contract colony. Thus the population in this contract colony will
decline to a point of zero or very few animals at the end of year ten. The colony population at the end of each year of the nine year period should be
approximately as follows: YEAR 1 10,000 YEAR 4 72,000 YEAR 7 72,000 YEAR 10 Near Zero YEAR 250,000 YEAR 5 72,000 YEAR 8 50,000 YEAR 3 72,000
YEAR 6 72,000 YEAR 9 20,000 The Contractor shall acquire foundation stock for four inbred strains of mice froma stock center identified by the COR and shall
re-derive the stock by caesariansection or embryo transfer under barrier conditions. After re-derivation, testing to confirm genetic purity and SPF health status
shall be performed on the foundation colony, and breeding colonies will be established for the four inbred strains and two derivative hybrid strains. Mice will be
entered into the aging colony at levels defined in the contract Statement of Work (SOW), currently a totalof 4,150 mice per month (the hybrid strains account for
approximately 5% of thetotal entry levels). The Contractor shall provide all production space needed for the colony, including at least two independent barriers
to house the colony, with independent back-up and alarm systems. Since this is an aging colony, the contractor must be prepared to house the animals for up to
2-3 years each. Mice shall be provided with sterilized food (formulation consistent with NIH31 open formula) and bedding, and environmental conditions
(temperature, humidity range, light cycle, water treatment, etc.) as defined in the SOW. Mice shall be monitored weekly for signs of fighting or morbidity. Semiannual genetic monitoring of the breeding colonies and quarterly health monitoring of the aging colonies shallbe performed and reported to the COR as well as
be included in the semi-annual progress reports. Genetic monitoring shall be accomplished by a panel of microsatellite markers that distinguish the inbred
strains. Health monitoring shall include external exams for parasites, microbiology, serology, and histology. The Contractor shall ship the mice to investigators
upon authorization from the COR orher representative, providing secure shipping crates, food and water sources, climate-controlled transport and provide a
weekly inventory of the aging colony in a format approved by the COR.. REPORTS/DELIVERABLES: The following reports will be required: (1) Post-rederivation Health and Genetic Monitoring Report; (2) Breeding Colony Development Report; (3) Semi-Annual Progress Reports; (4) WeeklyInventory Report; (5)

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications to develop, adapt, and test the effectiveness of
health promotion and disease prevention interventions in Native American (NA) populations. NA populations are exposed to considerable risk factors that
significantly increase their likelihood of chronic disease, substance abuse, mental illness, oral diseases, and HIV-infection. The intervention program should be
culturally appropriate and promote the adoption of healthy lifestyles, improve behaviors and social conditions and/or improve environmental conditions related to
chronic diseases, the consumption of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs, mental illness, oral disease, or HIV-infection. The intervention program should be
designed so that it could be sustained within the entire community within existing resources, and, if successful, disseminated in other Native American
communities. The long-term goal of this FOA is to reduce mortality and morbidity in NA communities. For the purposes of this FOA Native Americans include
the following populations: Alaska Native, American Indian, and Native Hawaiian. The term ‘Native Hawaiian’ means any individual any of whose ancestors were
natives, prior to 1778, of the area which now comprises the State of Hawaii. This FOA will use the NIH Research Project (R01) award mechanism.

SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications for translational and clinical studies for recording
and/or stimulating devices to treat nervous system disorders and better understand the human brain. The program will utilize a cooperative agreement
mechanism to support the submission of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for a Significant Risk (SR) study or obtain Institutional Review Board (IRB)
approval for a Non-Significant Risk (NSR) study, and a subsequent small clinical study (e.g., Early Feasibility Study). The small clinical study should provide
data to answer key questions about the function or final design of a device. This final device design may require most, if not all, of the non-clinical testing on the
path to more advanced clinical trials and market approval. The clinical study is expected to provide information that cannot be practically obtained through
additional nonclinical assessments (e.g., bench top or animal studies) due to the novelty of the device or its intended use. Activities supported in this program
include implementation of clinical prototype devices, non-clinical safety and efficacy testing, design verification and validation activities, and pursuit of regulatory
approval for, and implementation of, a single small clinical study. This FOA will use the NIH UH2/UH3 Phase Innovation Awards Cooperative Agreement
mechanism.
Indirect Costs

must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide. NIH anticipates
providing $9.0 million per year, to fund an estimated 5-10 awards. Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed
project. Applicants should rarely exceed $1M direct costs per year for the non-clinical testing phase and $1.5M direct costs per year for the Early Feasibility
Study phase. The duration of the UH2 phase cannot exceed 3 years and the total duration of the UH2/UH3 phases combined may not exceed 5 years. Because
the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary.

SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications to pursue a small clinical study to obtain critical
information necessary to advance recording and/or stimulating devices to treat central nervous system disorders and better understand the human brain (e.g.,
Early Feasibility Study). Clinical studies supported may consist of acute or short-term procedures that are deemed Non-Significant Risk (NSR) by an Institutional
Review Board, or Significant Risk (SR) studies that require an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the FDA, such as chronic implants. The clinical
study should provide data to answer key questions about the function or final design of a device. This final device design may require most, if not all, of the nonclinical testing on the path to more advanced clinical trials and market approval. The clinical study is expected to provide information that cannot be practically
obtained through additional nonclinical assessments (e.g., bench top or animal studies) due to the novelty of the device or its intended use. This FOA will use

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invite applications for administrative supplements to support research
in which the supplemental funding would investigate the role of dietary supplements and/or their ingredients in health maintenance and disease prevention.
Parent awards need not be focused on dietary supplements; this FOA may provide support to include dietary supplements within the scope of relevant research
projects. Research interests of ODS are not limited to specific health conditions, organ systems or population groups. ODS supports all types of research,
including pre-clinical, clinical, behavioral, and epidemiological. Additionally, ODS supports research and training programs that build future research capacity for
studying the role of dietary supplements in health and disease prevention. Primary consideration for support will be given to applications that stimulate dietary
supplement research where it is lacking or lagging, clarify gaps, opportunities and balance between benefits and risks where data are in conflict, target special
population groups where additional science on dietary supplements is needed, and focus on the use of dietary supplements in improving or maintaining health
and reducing the risk of chronic disease. This FOA will use the NIH Administrative Supplement award mechanism.
Indirect Costs
Funding This FOA will use the NIH Administrative Supplement award mechanism. Administrative supplement requests must be submitted on paper for the following
activity codes: P01; P20; P30; P50; P60; U10; U19; U54; and U56. For all other activity codes, applications submitted in response to this announcement must
be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide. ODS intends to
commit up to $3.0M in FY 2015 to fund approximately 30 awards. Budget requests may be for no more than $100,000 in total costs. Application budgets are
limited to no more than the amount of the current parent award and must reflect the actual needs of the proposed project. The funding mechanism being used to
support this program, administrative supplements, can be used to cover cost increases that are associated with achieving certain new research objectives, as
long as the research objectives are within the original scope of the peer reviewed and approved project, or the cost increases are for unanticipated expenses
within the original scope of the project. Any cost increases need to result from making modifications to the project that would increase or preserve the overall
impact of the project consistent with its originally approved objectives and purposes. The project and budget periods must be within the currently approved
project period for the existing parent award. CFDA#s: 93.321, 93.393, 93.273, 93.847, 93.213, 93.856, 93.855, 93.859, 93.121, 93.865, 93.989, 93.866, 93.113,

SYNOPSIS: National Institutes of Health (NIH) and its participating Institutes and Centers invte applications for technology at an even earlier stage of
development than previous BRAIN FOAs which sought to develop novel technology (RFA-NS-15-003) or to optimize existing technology ready for in-vivo proofof-concept testing and collection of preliminary data (RFA-NS-15-004). It seeks new and untested ideas that are in the very earliest stages. The support
provided might enable calculations, simulations, computational models, or other mathematical approaches for demonstrating that the signal sources and/or
measurement technologies are theoretically capable of meeting the demands of large-scale recording or manipulation of circuit activity. The support might also
be used for building and testing phantoms, prototypes, in-vitro or other bench-top models in order to validate underlying theoretical assumptions in preparation
for future FOAs aimed at testing in animal models. Invasive or non-invasive approaches are sought that will ultimately enable or reduce the current barriers to
large-scale recording or manipulation of neural activity, and that would be compatible with experiments in humans or behaving animals. Applications are
encouraged from any qualified individuals, including physicists, engineers, theoreticians, and scientists, especially those not typically involved with neuroscience
research. This program will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism.
Indirect Costs
15 awards, corresponding to a total of $6M over two years. The initial funding period will begin in fiscal year 2015. The combined budget for direct costs for the
two year project period may not exceed $300,000. No more than $200,000 may be requested in any single year. The total project period may not exceed 2
years. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award
will also vary. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending January 30,

MD 20892 will be soliciting proposals from small business concerns that possess the research and development (R&D) expertise to conduct innovative research
that will contribute toward meeting the program objectives.NIDA has an interest in understanding the consequences of nicotine addictionand promoting research
into smoking cessation and reduction of harm caused by smoking. Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS, also known as electronic cigarettes) are recently
developed devices that deliver nicotine along with other constituents and flavorings in an inhalable aerosol. NIDA has an interest in supporting research into
ENDS because their use is rapidly increasing in adults and youth, and they may also represent a valuable opportunity for harm reduction andsmoking cessation.
The currently available research data on ENDS is insufficient to fully inform public policy or to assess their overall impact on public health. Research is
hampered for several reasons, including the limited information available on the nicotine delivery characteristics and uncertainty that any specific model will be
available for the full term of a multi-year study. Furthermore, currently available devices do not have the product data and manufacturing documentation
required for Investigational New Drug (IND) approval, thereby preventing their use in many clinical studies. In order to accelerate ENDS research, NIDA is
seeking proposals to develop a standardized ENDS to be used in clinical research. This request for proposals may be most relevant (but not limited) to current
ENDS manufacturers, provided they are eligible to apply to the SBIR program.The solicitation is planned to be available electronically in January 2015.At the
earliest it will be posted 15 days from this notice. You will access the solicitation through the FedBizOpps (URL: http://www.fbo.gov) or through the NIDA
website: (URL: http://www.nida.nih.gov/RFP/RFPList.html). All information required for the submission of a proposal is contained in or accessible through the
solicitation package. NIDA will consider proposals submitted by any responsible offeror. This advertisement does not commit the Government to award a
contract.The solicitation will be available ONLY via electronic means. Printed copiesof the solicitation will not be distributed. Potential offerors are encouraged to
check the fedbizopps.gov for updates on the program. Any updates or corrections to the solicitation will be posted there.The purposes of the SBIR program are
to: (a) stimulate technological innovation in the private sector; (b) strengthen the role of small business in meeting Federal research/research & development
(R/R&D) needs; (c) increase the commercial application of Federally-supported research results; (d) foster and encourage participation by socially and
economically disadvantaged small businessconcerns and women-owned business concerns; and improve the return on investment from Federally-funded
research for economic and social benefits to the Nation.For purposes of the SBIR program, a small business concern is any business concern that, on the date
of award, (1) is organized for profit, with a place of business located in the United States, which operates primarily within the United States or which makes a
significant contribution to the United States economy through payment of taxes or use of American products, materials or labor; (2) is inthe legal form of an
individual proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, joint venture, association, trust or cooperative, except that where the form is a joint
venture, there must be less than 50 percent participation by foreign business entities in the joint venture; (3) more than 50% directly owned and controlled by
one or more individuals (who are citizens or permanent resident aliens of the United States), other business concerns (each of which is more than 50% directly
owned and controlled by individuals who are citizens or permanent resident aliens of the United States), or any combination of these; OR more than 50% owned
by multiple venture capital operating companies, hedgefunds, private equity firms, or any combination of these. No single venture capital operating company,

Synopsis SYNOPSIS: National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) invites applications for the Maximizing Investigators' Research Award (MIRA). The award
is a grant to provide support for all of the research in an investigator's laboratory that falls within the mission of NIGMS. The goal of MIRA is to increase the
efficiency and efficacy of NIGMS funding. It is anticipated that the new program will:--Increase the stability of funding for NIGMS-supported investigators, which
could enhance their ability to take on ambitious scientific projects and approach problems more creatively.--Increase flexibility for investigators to follow
important new research directions as opportunities arise, rather than being bound to specific aims proposed in advance of the studies.--More widely distribute
funding among the nation’s highly talented and promising investigators to increase overall scientific productivity and the chances for important breakthroughs.-Reduce the time spent by researchers writing and reviewing grant applications, allowing them to spend more time conducting research.--Enable principal
investigators to devote more time and energy to mentoring junior scientists in a more stable research environment.--The purpose of this FOA is to test the
feasibility of this grant mechanism through a pilot program with restricted eligibility. This FOA will use the NIH R35 Outstanding Investigator Award mechanism.
Indirect Costs
Funding This FOA will use the NIH R35 Outstanding Investigator Award mechanism. Applications submitted in response to this announcement must be submitted
electronically through Grants.gov, using the SF424 Research and Related (R&R) forms and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide. NIGMS intends to commit $60
million in FY 2016 to fund up to 100 awards. Applications may request up to $750,000 direct costs per year. Investigators are encouraged to request what is
actually well justified for their research program. In general, the request should be commensurate with the investigator’s current total NIGMS research funding.
Cost efficiency is one of the goals of the MIRA program and will be one of the considerations in funding decisions. Applications may request a maximum project
period of five years. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration
of each award will also vary. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. Reference: NIH Guide, Week Ending

designated on the application for projects that require a “team science” approach that clearly does not fit the single-PD/PI model. Eligibility to apply under this
initial FOA is limited to investigators who have received either two or more R01s, an R01 and an R37, or equivalent awards, or a single award of greater than
$400,000 direct costs, from NIGMS in FY2013 or 2014. Furthermore, it is the subset of such investigators with one or more of their current projects due to expire
in FY2016 or FY2017 that are encouraged to apply so that they can transition to MIRA support in the same fiscal that a current project expires. NIGMS
investigators with additional NIH support from other ICs are welcome to apply, but are prohibited from requesting funds for similar work as part of an NIGMS
MIRA application.

Synopsis SYNOPSIS:Variations in constituents such as ozone and aerosols affect air quality, weather, and climate. Atmospheric composition is central to Earth system dynamics
because the atmosphere integrates spatially varying surface emissions globally on time scales from weeks to years. NASA works to provide monitoring and evaluation tools
to assess the effects of climate change on ozone recovery and future atmospheric composition, improved climate forecasts based on the understanding of the forcings of
global environmental change, and air quality modeling that takeinto account the relationship between regional air quality and global climate change. Achievements in these
areas via advances in observations, data assimilation, and modelingenable improved predictive capabilities for describing how future changes in atmospheric composition
affect air quality, weather, and climate.

Contact Name Robert Scholle

Synopsis The increasing success of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) has enabled some infertile couples to create embryos through in-vitro fertilization (IVF) that are then
cryopreserved (frozen) for future use. If a couple becomes pregnant without using all of the stored embryos, they may choose to donate the remaining embryos for use by
other infertile couples. Embryo donation is a relatively new process in which individuals with extra frozen embryos agree to release the embryos for use by another woman
who wishes to achieve pregnancy. The recipient can be either anonymous or known to the donor(s). This notice solicits applications for projects in two categories: (1)
Projects that increase public awareness of embryo donation and/or adoption; and (2) Projects that offer services, including counseling, to couples that are currently involved,
or soon may be involved, in the process of embryo donation and/or adoption. Applicants may also propose a project that addresses both the public awareness aspect of the
program and the “services” aspect in a single grant.

SYNOPSIS: Despite centuries of discovery, most of our planet's biodiversity remains unknown. The scale of the unknown diversity on Earth is especially
troubling given the rapid and permanent loss of biodiversity across the globe. The goal of the Dimensions of Biodiversity campaign is to transform, by 2020, how
we describe and understand the scope and role of life on Earth. This campaign promotes novel integrative approaches to fill the most substantial gaps in our
understanding of the diversity of life on Earth. It takes a broad view of biodiversity, and focuses on the intersection of genetic, phylogenetic, and functional
dimensions of biodiversity. Successful proposals must integrate these three dimensions to understand interactions and feedbacks among them. While this focus
complements several core programs in BIO and GEO, it differs by requiring that multiple dimensions of biodiversity be addressed simultaneously, in novel ways,
to understand their synergistic roles in critical ecological and evolutionary processes. The Dimensions of Biodiversity program again includes partnerships with
the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) of Brazil in fiscal year 2015.

instructional strategies, or models that innovatively integrate computing into one or more STEM disciplines, or integrate STEM content into the teaching and
learning of computing. In addition, STEM+C seeks to build capacity in K-12 computing education with foundational research and focused teacher preparation.
Projects in the STEM+C Partnerships program should build on research in STEM education and prior research and development efforts that provide theoretical
and empirical justification for proposed projects. Pre-service and in-service teachers who participate in STEM+C projects are expected to enhance their
understanding and teaching of STEM and computing content, practices, and skills. STEM+C invites creative and innovative proposals that address emerging
challenges in the learning and teaching of STEM and computing. The program offers proposers two tracks: (1) Integration of Computing in STEM Education and
(2) Computing Education Knowledge and Capacity Building. The second track is discipline-specific and may be expanded to include additional disciplines in
future releases of the solicitation.

Oceanographic facilities and equipment are supported by the National Science Foundation through the Integrative Programs Section (IPS) within the Division of
Ocean Sciences (OCE), Directorate for Geosciences (GEO). Awards are generally directed to support facilities that lend themselves to shared use within the
broad range of federally-supported research and education programs. NSF support includes awards for the procurement, conversion and/or up-grade,
enhancement or annual operation of research vessel platforms in the ocean, coastal, near-shore and Great Lakes. The vessels are either state or federally
owned, and operated by academic institutions within the University National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). Most of these platforms and their
associated facilities also receive partial support from other federal agencies, state and local governments, and private sources on a proportional basis. The
scientific productivity of research programs conducted by the U.S. Academic Research Vessel Fleet is enhanced by providing technical support services to all
users of the facility. Maintaining availability of qualified Technicians for ship-based research is a long-standing and proven method of optimizing technical
support. Individual Operating Institutions employ and assign permanent Technicians to research vessels under their purview. However, there are frequent
occasions in which it is necessary and desirable to hire temporary or part-time Technicians to meet unexpected or surge demands across the fleet. Procedures
for meeting this requirement vary between Operating Institutions and are frequently inconsistent, complex and time consuming. This solicitation seeks to
streamline the inherent inefficiencies in meeting varying demands for technical support by establishing a centrally managed Pool of Temporary and Part-time
Technicians that can be made readily available to vessel Operating Institutions across the US Academic Research fleet. A single award is anticipated for
Management of a centralized, UNOLS Technician Services Pool by a Technician Pool Host Institution (TPHI).

The National Science Foundation plans to build upon the I-Corps program and establish a National Innovation Network comprised of I-Corps Regional Nodes
that will support the needs for innovation research and education. NSF is seeking to build a network of regional nodes that will work cooperatively to establish,
utilize and sustain a national innovation ecosystem that further enhances the development of technologies, products and processes that benefit society. The
interconnected nodes of this network may be diverse in research areas, resources, tools, programs, capabilities, and in geographic locations - while the network
will have the flexibility to grow or reconfigure as needs arise. I-Corps Regional Nodes will foster understanding on how to: 1) identify, develop and support
promising ideas that can generate value, 2) create and implement tools and resources that enhance our nation's innovation capacity, 3) gather, analyze,
evaluate and utilize the data and insight resulting from the experiences of those participating in the I-Corps program and 4) share and leverage effective
innovation practices on a national scale - to improve the quality of life for the U.S. citizenry.

This RFA is a call for research that evaluates the impact of the many changes now occurring in the health care system with a particular focus on cancer
prevention, control, and treatment. Efforts focusing on improving access to care may also impact inequities that contribute to health disparities. New health
public policy initiatives, for example the new federal and state marketplaces that have expanded insurance coverage, as well as Medicaid expansion in some
states, create natural experiments ripe for evaluation. Research to be fundedby this RFA should focus on the changes in national, state, and/or local policy and
the response to these changes by health care systems, insurers, payers, communities, practices, and patients.
