Below are several upcoming federal funding opportunities. Click on the links below for more information. Even if the deadline is short or you cannot get to it this semester, be thinking long-term. Most federal opportunities operate on an annual or semi-annual cycle. If you are interested in pursuing any of these opportunities, please reach out to OGRS (Franklin Williams, franklin.williams@shu.edu) or the Office of Government Relations (Fahim Abedrabbo, fahim.abedrabbo@shu.edu). The Grants Team is ready to assist you.
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support university-based research and development projects that address and resolve scientific challenges and applied engineering technology issues associated with advancing the performance and efficiency of combustion turbines in combined cycle applications (e.g., IGCC/NGCC) in fossil fuel power generation.
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to stimulate basic and clinical research in educational institutions that provide baccalaureate or advanced degrees for a significant number of the Nation’s research scientists, but that have not been major recipients of NIH support. Research Enhancement Award Program (REAP) grants create opportunities for scientists and health professional institutions otherwise unlikely to participate extensively in NIH research programs to contribute to the Nation’s biomedical and behavioral research effort.
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the creation of Laboratories with expertise and resources and to conduct early clinical evaluation of potential pharmacotherapies for Substance Use Disorders (SUDs). The goal is to accelerate the clinical development of medications to treat SUDs by establishing Laboratories possessing the highest expertise and sufficient resources to timely and efficiently conducting Food and Drug Administration-defined Phase 1 and/or Phase 2 clinical trials of new or repurposed compounds for SUDs indications.
This funding opportunity solicits applications for planning and initial development of a large scale multi-site research study to prospectively examine human brain, cognitive, behavioral, social, and emotional development beginning prenatally through childhood (e.g., age 9-10), and the long-term impacts of pre/postnatal drug (expected oversampling for opioid prenatal exposures) and adverse environmental exposures on brain and behavioral health and risk for substance use and mental disorders. In addition to planning and testing the feasibility of study designs, awardees will be expected to participate in 2-3 grantee meetings to share lessons learned and to begin to form collaborations needed to establish the network of sites that will conduct this study.
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support a series of one-week workshops for K-12 educators across the nation that enhance and strengthen humanities teaching at the K-12 level. The program defines a landmark as a site of historic importance within the U.S. that offers educators a unique and compelling opportunity to deepen and expand their knowledge of the diverse histories, cultures, traditions, languages, and perspectives of the American people.
