The Discovery Research PreK-12 program (DRK-12) seeks to significantly enhance the learning and teaching of science, technology, engineering, mathematics and computer science (STEM) by preK-12 students and teachers, through research and development of STEM education innovations and approaches. Projects in the DRK-12 program build on fundamental research in STEM education and prior research and development efforts that provide theoretical and empirical justification for proposed projects. Projects should result in research-informed and field-tested outcomes and products that inform teaching and learning. Teachers and students who participate in DRK-12 studies are expected to enhance their understanding and use of STEM content, practices and skills.

This milestone-driven Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for single-site clinical trials that: (1) address barriers that impede population-level implementation of case finding and cascade screening (i.e., blood relatives of FH index cases are systematically contacted based on their risk according to the pattern of inheritance); (2) explore implementation science methodologies to assess the uptake, cost-effectiveness, feasibility, and scalability of family-based cascade screening programs for familial hypercholesterolemia (FH); (3) develop or improve machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques to find high-risk individuals using electronic health records (EHRs); and (4) optimize treatment strategies and health outcomes.

The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to advance surveillance science by supporting the development of new and innovative tools and methods for more efficient, detailed, timely, and accurate data collection by cancer registries. Specifically, the FOA seeks applications for projects to develop, adapt, apply, scale-up, and validate tools and methods to improve the collection and integration cancer registry data and to expand the data items collected. Applications must be built on partnership with U.S. population-based central cancer registries (a partnership must involve at least two different registries). Tools and methods proposed for development are expected to enhance the registry core infrastructure and, in so doing, expand the usefulness of registry-collected data to support high-quality cancer research.

The opening of this PCORI Funding Announcement has been moved back to June 9, 2020.

This PCORI funding announcement invites applications for high-quality comparative effectiveness research (CER) projects that will examine a critical patient-centered research question that is also relevant to decision makers and other stakeholders. For this PFA, investigators should propose an individual-level or cluster randomized controlled trial of significant scale and scope, requiring funding in excess of $10 million in direct costs. The proposed trials should address important decisional dilemmas that require important new evidence about the comparative effectiveness of available interventions. Proposed studies should compare interventions that already have established evidence of efficacy or are in widespread use. Clinical interventions (such as medications, diagnostic tests, or procedures) and delivery system interventions are appropriate for study.

Deadlines

  • LOI: September 29, 2020
  • Full Application: January 12, 2021

Summary

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite applications from single institutions or consortia of institutions to participate in the Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Centers (AADCRC) program. The program will support centers that integrate clinical and translational research to conduct studies on the mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of diseases of interest, including asthma, rhinitis (allergic and non-allergic), chronic rhinosinusitis, atopic dermatitis, food allergy, and drug allergy. The overarching goal of the program is to improve the understanding of the pathogenesis of these conditions and to provide a rational foundation for new, effective treatments and prevention strategies.   

Please read the full program announcement before preparing your internal application.

Award Amount
  • Application budgets are limited to $900,000 in direct costs per year, excluding the IOF budget, and need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project. 
  • The maximum project period is 5 years. 
Eligibility
  • Any individual(s) with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research as the Program Director(s)/Principal Investigator(s) (PD(s)/PI(s)) is invited to work with his/her organization to develop an application for support. Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for Note that the multiple PD(s)/PI(s) option may be used only for the Overall Program. Projects are limited to a single project lead per project and a single core lead per core within the multi-component application.
  • An investigator can serve as a PD/PI on only one AADCRC award or application. This includes all PD(s)/PI(s) of a multiple-PD/PI application
  • NIH support.
Selection Criteria
  • Detailed application review criteria can be found here.
Limitation Details

An Institution may submit one proposal

If you are interested in submitting for this program, you must first submit an internal application to limsub@uga.eduaccording to the required instructions below.

Internal Applications must include the following:
