National Science Foundation Research Traineeship (NRT) Program
Agencies
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Description
The NSF Research Traineeship (NRT) program is designed to encourage the development and implementation of bold, new, and potentially transformative models for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) graduate education training. The NRT program seeks proposals that explore ways for graduate students in researchbased master's and doctoral degree programs to develop the skills, knowledge, and competencies needed to pursue a range of STEM careers. The program is dedicated to effective training of STEM graduate students in high priority interdisciplinary or convergent research areas, through the use of a comprehensive traineeship model that is innovative, evidencebased, and aligned with changing workforce and research needs. Proposals are requested in any interdisciplinary or convergent research theme of national priority, with special emphasis on the research areas in NSF's 10 Big Ideas. The NSF research Big Ideas are Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR), The Future of Work at the HumanTechnology Frontier (FW-HTF), Navigating the New Arctic (NNA), Windows on the Universe: The Era of MultiMessenger Astrophysics (WoU), The Quantum Leap: Leading the Next Quantum Revolution (QL), and Understanding the Rules of Life: Predicting Phenotype (URoL). The NRT program addresses workforce development, emphasizing broad participation, and institutional capacity building needs in graduate education. Strategic collaborations with the private sector, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), government agencies, national laboratories, field stations, teaching and learning centers, informal science centers, and academic partners are encouraged. NRT especially welcomes proposals that will pair well with the efforts of NSF Inclusion across the Nation of Communities of Learners of Underrepresented Discoverers in Engineering and Science (INCLUDES) to develop STEM talent from all sectors and groups in our society (https://www.nsf.gov/news/special_reports/nsfincludes/index.jsp). Collaborations are encouraged between NRT proposals and existing NSF INCLUDES projects, provided the collaboration strengthens both projects.

Title
Sound Health Network
Agencies
National Endowment for the Arts (NEA)
Description
The Sound Health program seeks to expand public understanding of the connections
between music and wellness: how music is processed by the brain, how music can
impact development and learning, and the therapeutic use of music for specific health
conditions. Launched in 2016, Sound Health is a partnership between the National
Institutes of Health (“NIHâ€) and the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
(“Kennedy Centerâ€), in association with the National Endowment for the Arts (“Arts
Endowmentâ€) (individually known as “Partner†and collectively known as “the
Partnershipâ€).
Together with soprano Renée Fleming, the Kennedy Center’s Artistic Advisor at Large,
the Partnership has produced concerts, workshops, symposia, and other events to
spotlight novel work at the intersection of music, neuroscience, music therapy, and
music education. Following publication of a jointly-authored article in the scientific
journal Neuron, NIH announced a trans-agency working group and, later, a $5 million
research funding opportunity cosponsored by the Arts Endowment. On a parallel track,
the Arts Endowment provided support for several NEA Research Labs focused on
music and its relationship to neuroscience, cognition, and health and wellness. It has
become clear that greater organizational capacity is needed to create and sustain a
trans-disciplinary network of researchers and practitioners to promote knowledge about
music’s role in brain development and health and wellness across the lifespan.
In response to this need, the Arts Endowment will establish the Sound Health Network
to connect relevant subject matter experts (individuals and organizations) and other
appropriate entities together in order to leverage and inform each other’s work. The
Sound Health Network will identify and distribute compelling research, news, and
information across to the public; it will regularly convene Sound Health Network
participants with audiences and stakeholders who can benefit directly from this
knowledge; and it will provide technical and logistical support for collaborations that may
occur between participants within the Sound Health Network. Longer-term, the Sound
Health Network also will consider the feasibility of exploring how other art forms, in
addition to music, may connect with brain and wellness issues.

Critical-Zone Collaborative Network
Agencies
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Description
NSF seeks proposals to establish an adaptive and responsive research network that supports investigations of the Earth’s Critical Zone. This network will consist of two components that will work together to advance knowledge, education, and outreach in this convergent science: 1) Thematic Clusters of fixed or temporary locations will conduct basic research on significant, overarching scientific questions concerning the structure, function, and processes of the Critical Zone. These U.S.-based Clusters could include existing observatories engaged in collecting environmental data, other monitoring locations that have been in operation for extended periods of time, and new sites that will support the scientific goals of the Cluster; 2) A Coordinating Hub that will oversee the compatibility and archiving of the data resulting from the Thematic Clusters, coordinate outreach and community-building activities, support the use of network facilities by outside researchers, and plan for infrastructure needs of the network.
This solicitation invites proposals for either of the two components: 1) Thematic Cluster or 2) Coordinating Hub. The Thematic Clusters will carry out interdisciplinary research on scientific questions and manage part of the network infrastructure; the Coordinating Hub will serve as the national center for the network. The infrastructure of the network will be accessible to other research teams pursuing research in the Critical Zone.

Description
The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy (NE) provides funding to
support crosscutting nuclear energy research and development (R&D) and associated
infrastructure support activities, to develop innovative technologies that offer the promise
of dramatically improved performance for advanced reactors and fuel cycle concepts, while
maximizing the use of DOE resources.
The development of nuclear energy-related infrastructure and basic capabilities in the research
community is necessary to promote R&D that supports nuclear science and engineering
(NS&E), DOE-NE’s mission, and the Nation’s nuclear energy challenges. Accordingly, DOE
intends to enable the education and training of nuclear scientists, engineers, and policy-makers
in graduate and undergraduate study, and two-year programs, as well as R&D that is relevant to
the Department and the nuclear energy industry in general.
The Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP) utilizes up to 20 percent of funds
appropriated to NE’s R&D program for university-based infrastructure support and R&D in key
NE program-related areas:
• Fuel Cycle Research and Development (FC R&D)
• Reactor Concepts Research, Development and Demonstration (RC RD&D)
• Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS)
The infrastructure requested should be individual, discrete, and definable items or capabilities
that will:
• Support, maintain, or enhance the institutions’ capacities to attract and teach high quality
students interested in nuclear energy-related studies;
• Build the institutions’ research or education capabilities; or
• Enhance the institutions’ capabilities to perform R&D that is relevant to DOE-NE’s
mission.
NE reserves the right to respond to potential shifts in priorities during FY2019 that may be
driven by events, policy developments, or Congressional/budget direction. NE will factor such
considerations into decision

The KUH/NIDDK Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Fellow Transition Award (F99/K00 Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Agencies
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
Description
The purpose of the KUH/NIDDK Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Fellow Transition Award (F99/K00) is to recruit exceptional graduate students who are recognized by their institutions for their high potential and to incentivize them to pursue a Kidney, Urologic or Hematologic (K, U, or H) postdoctoral position that ultimately positions them to become independent K, U, or H researchers. This two-phase award will facilitate completion of the doctoral dissertation and stabilize the transition of highly talented Ph.D candidates from a variety of fields, including, but not limited to, engineering, statistics, data science, imaging, biochemistry and genetics into strong postdoctoral appointments that are focused on K, U, or H research. It is anticipated that successful completion of this phased award will make the individual highly competitive for a subsequent NIDDK award (e.g., K99/R00, R01). Opportunities for career development activities relevant to their long-term career goals of becoming independent researchers will be provided. Graduate students who are already involved in K, U, or H research are encouraged to apply for the NIDDK F31 (PA-18-671).
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) does not allow applicants to propose to lead an independent clinical trial, but does allow applicants to propose research experience in a clinical trial led by a sponsor or co-sponsor.
