The purpose of the International Science and Education (ISE) Grants Program is to support the internationalization of food, agriculture, and related programs at United States universities and colleges. It is intended that ISE will improve the ability of American students, business people, and community members to compete more effectively in the global world of agriculture. ISE projects are designed to strengthen the global competence and competitiveness of American colleges, universities and businesses in the food, agriculture, and related sectors. In addition, ISE projects must be directed to agricultural research, extension, and teaching activities that enhance the capabilities of American colleges and universities to conduct international collaborative research, extension and teaching.
Proposals should demonstrate how the proposed work responds to the specific needs and strengths of the university or college in addressing the following areas:
1. Strengthening the Global Competence of Students, Faculty, and Staff in Agriculture and Related Areas
Students, faculty, and staff should clearly understand international factors that affect United States food and agriculture, and faculty and staff should convey an understanding of the international dimensions of agricultural and related sciences to students. Areas of emphasis may include but are not limited to
- planning, implementing and evaluating initiatives that enhance the international content of the curricula in colleges and universities so as to ensure that United States students acquire an understanding of the international dimensions and trade implication of their studies;
- ensuring that United States scientists, extension agents, and educators convey the implications of their international findings to students, peers and other users in the United States; or
- enhancing the capabilities of colleges and universities to conduct collaborative research with other countries, in cooperation with other Federal agencies, on issues relevant to United States agricultural performance.
2. Enhancing Business Performance in International Agriculture and Related Sectors
Through extension, research or teaching programs, enhance the ability of American agricultural producers, marketers and others in the agricultural community to operate effectively in the global arena. Supportable activities include but are not limited to
- enhancing the capabilities of United States colleges and universities to provide cooperative extension education that promotes the application of new technology developed in foreign countries to United States agriculture; or enhancing the capability of United States colleges and universities, in cooperation with other federal agencies, to provide leadership and education programs in market identification, international trade policies, new or existing markets, and production efficiencies. Such programs should strengthen the ability of American natural resources and food production, processing, and distribution businesses and industries to compete internationally.

Title
Engineered Nanomaterials: Linking Physical and Chemical Properties to Biology (U19)
Agencies
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
Description
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences invites applications that will (1) determine which physical or chemical characteristic of an engineered nanomaterial (ENM), or cluster of characteristics, is integral to ENM-molecular interactions in a cellular process or organ system and (2) relate these findings to potential health effects. NIEHS recognizes that three types of activities need to converge to accomplish this research agenda. The first activity should focus on a detailed understanding of how physical and chemical characteristics of ENMs influence their molecular interactions at the cellular level, while the second activity should determine how the physical and chemical characteristics critical to that interaction are associated with any observed physiological or pathobiological events. The third activity will capitalize on these multidisciplinary efforts through integration of biochemical, molecular, and physiological mechanisms to expand traditional hazard identification and health risk assessment. An extraordinary level of synergy, integration, and potential for advancement of ENM hazard identification and risk assessment is expected.
Proposals responsive to this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) should employ three projects that will examine an overarching research theme through mechanistic studies and in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo model systems. Grants awarded under this FOA will become part of a consortium that will collaboratively manage the research conducted through the individual grants.
