	Notice of Intent Deadline of May 26, 2009 Has Passed
Title Recovery Act Limited Competition: NCMHD Exploratory Centers of Excellence (P20) (Recovery Act, ARRA) Agencies Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Description The NIH has received new funds for fiscal years (FYs) 2009 and 2010 as part of the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act or ARRA). This is one of a number of NIH initiatives supported by that Recovery Act funding. This NIH Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NCMHD), invites grant applications from eligible institutions and organizations that propose to establish an Exploratory NCMHD Center of Excellence (COE). NCMHD COE awards provide funding for hiring staff, researchers, community members, and trainees with the goal of augmenting and expanding the capacity and infrastructure of the institution and community to engage in research improving the health of nation and for preparing the next generation of researchers. Activities should be proposed that will benefit from significant two-year funds without the expectation of continued NIH funding beyond two years. The activities supported by these NCMHD COE grants should have high short-term impact, and a high likelihood of enabling growth and investment in biomedical research and development, public health, and health care delivery. Applications are invited from institutions seeking support to (1) establish novel partnerships for community engagement/outreach efforts to eliminate health disparities, (2) establish new or enhance current research training infrastructure and capacity, including pipeline training programs, to prepare future biomedical, biobehavioral, and clinical researchers from minority, rural or low social and low economic status populations, and (3) to hire newly recruited faculty to develop a research project within the context of the NCMHD Centers of Excellence program. To be eligible for the COE in this FOA, applicant institutions are expected to have existing federal research support or research infrastructure as reflected in a level of NIH institutional funding of less than $80 million for the year 2008. Each NCMHD Exploratory COE (P20) must contain two cores: a mandatory Administrative Core, and one additional core selected from the following: Community Engagement/Outreach Core or Research Training/Education Core or a Research Core. If a Research Core is proposed, a single research project must be proposed. NCMHD will only support a single research project. More Information http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-MD-09-007.html Submission Limits An eligible applicant institution may submit only one application in response to this FOA. Only one application from the same institution will be reviewed. Cost Sharing: This program does not require cost sharing as defined in the current NIH Grants Policy Statement.

Title Innovation through Institutional Integration (I3) Agencies National Science Foundation (NSF) Description Innovation through Institutional Integration (I3) challenges faculty, administrators, and others in institutions to think strategically about the creative integration of NSF-funded awards towards a whole that exceeds the sum of its parts. Although there is particular emphasis in I3 on awards managed by programs in the Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR), institutional integration is not limited only to EHR awards but can include other NSF awards with a STEM educational focus. Two or more institutions in geographic proximity might, for example, partner to bridge existing NSF-funded awards on their campuses (e.g., RDE, IGERT, LSAMP, ATE, CREST, REU) to broaden participation in STEM fields and enhance undergraduate research opportunities. Additional connections might be made internationally with faculty or students outside the United States who would add their considerable intellectual and cultural perspectives. As another example, an institution might implement new policies, procedures, or mechanisms that encourage and value synergistic efforts among existing NSF-funded awards (e.g., GK-12, MSP, Noyce, REESE, DRK-12) and with other institutional units to better understand and enhance seamlessness across critical educational junctures, perhaps infusing innovative approaches to cyber-learning. This effort has the following interrelated goals: Increase synergy and collaboration across NSF-funded projects and within/between institutions, towards an educational environment where artificial boundaries are significantly reduced and the student experience is more fully integrated; Expand and deepen the impact of NSF-funded projects and enhance their sustainability; Provide additional avenues to broaden participation through workforce development, especially for those underrepresented in STEM research and education; attend to seamless transitions across critical educational junctures; and/or provide more effectively for a globally engaged workforce; Promote innovative programming, policies, and practices to encourage the integration of STEM research and education; and Encourage STEM educational or related research in domains that hold promise for promoting intra- or inter-institutional integration and broader impacts. Proposals that facilitate either (a) inter-institutional or (b) intra-institutional efforts are encouraged. Proposals may be submitted by (a) a single institution to address intra-institutional goals only or (b) an institution acting on behalf of an institutional partnership to address inter-institutional goals. Proposals are expected to incorporate a depth and quality of creative, coherent, and strategic actions that extend beyond commonplace approaches to normal institutional operations. Proposals may also be submitted for research on institutional integration or other closely related themes articulated in the goals above. I3 is a cross-divisional effort in the Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR). For Fiscal Year 2009, proposals are being solicited in nine EHR programs that advance I3 goals: CREST, GSE, HBCU-UP, ITEST, LSAMP, MSP, Noyce, RDE, and TCUP. All proposals submitted to I3 through these programs have a common due date and will be reviewed in competition with one another. More Information http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2009/nsf09511/nsf09511.pdf Submission Limits For Fiscal Year 2009, proposals are being solicited in nine EHR programs that advance the goals of Innovation through Institutional Integration (I3 ): CREST, GSE, HBCU-UP, ITEST, LSAMP, MSP, Noyce, RDE, and TCUP. Given the focus on institutional integration, an institution may submit only one proposal to the I3 competition for each deadline.

Title Improvements to Biological Research Collections (BRC) Agencies National Science Foundation (NSF) Description The BRC program provides funds for improvements to network, secure, and organize established natural history collections for sustained, accurate, and efficient accessibility of the collection to the biological research community. The program is encouraging collaborative proposals to network collections on regional and continental scales, especially collaborations that bring large and small collections together into networks. The program also provides for enhancements to existing collections to improve collections, computerize specimen-related data, develop better methods of specimen curation and collection management through activities such as symposia and workshops. Biological collections supported include those housing natural history specimens and jointly curated collections such as preserved tissues and other physical samples, e.g., DNA libraries and digital images. Such collections provide the materials necessary for research across broad areas of biological sciences.
