Title
Major Research Instrumentation Program Instrument Development and Acquisition Solicitation
Agencies
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Description
The Major Research Instrumentation Program (MRI) serves to increase access to shared scientific and engineering instruments for research and research training in our Nation's institutions of higher education, museums and science centers, and non-profit organizations. This program especially seeks to improve the quality and expand the scope of research and research training in science and engineering, by providing shared instrumentation that fosters the integration of research and education in research-intensive learning environments. Development and acquisition of research instrumentation for shared inter- and/or intra-organization use is encouraged, as are development efforts that leverage the strengths of private sector partners as appropriate for the goals of the MRI Program.
To accomplish these goals, the MRI program assists with the acquisition or development of shared research instrumentation that is, in general, too costly and/or not appropriate for support through other NSF programs. For the purposes of the MRI Program, proposals must be for either acquisition or development. Instruments are expected to be operational for regular research use by the end of the award period. A key recommendation of a 2006 National Academies report on “Advanced Research Instrumentation and Facilities” (ARIF) was that the NSF should expand the MRI program so that it includes “mid-scale” instrumentation whose capital costs are greater than $2 million, but with costs that are not appropriate for NSF’s Major Research Equipment and Facilities Construction account. The MRI program now accepts proposals requesting over $2 million in NSF support (to the maximum request of $4 million) for the acquisition of a single instrument. For proposals requesting $2 million or less, investigators may seek support for instrument development or for acquisition of a single instrument, a large system of instruments, or multiple instruments that share a common or specific research focus.
More Information
http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2008/nsf08503/nsf08503.txt
Submission Limits
An institution may submit or be included as a partner or subawardee in no more than three proposals: at least one of three proposals submitted from an institution must be for instrument development.
Cost Sharing:
Yes, the MRI Program will require 30% cost-sharing on all proposals submitted by PhD granting institutions and non degree-granting institutions.

Title
Agribusiness Grant Program
Agencies
Virginia Tobacco Commission (VTC)
Description
In 1999, the Governor and the General Assembly created the Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission (the “Commission” or “TICRC”) to (i) provide payments to tobacco farmers as compensation for the adverse economic effects associated with declines in the federal quota system, and (ii) revitalize the economies of tobacco-dependent regions and communities. The Commission determines appropriate recipients for the moneys granted to the Commission by the Virginia General Assembly.
In February 2003, the Commission transformed its Tobacco Committee, which had responsibility for recommending indemnification guidelines, into a new standing committee for Agribusiness. The Agribusiness Committee continues to make indemnification recommendations but also considers requests for agribusiness project funding that previously had been eligible for the Commission’s Economic Development Grant Program. This allows the Commission to selectively make strategic investments in projects with measurable outcomes that will diversify the long-term agribusiness economy of Virginia’s tobacco region.
Priorities for use of Agribusiness grant funds will include, but not be limited to, the following activities:
• Assisting tobacco farmers in transitioning into alternative agricultural enterprises, including traditional and specialty crops and livestock, wood products, aquaculture, viticulture and other agricultural products
• Assisting farmers with improved production techniques that result in increased profitability
• Increasing net farm income
• Expanding market opportunities for agricultural products, either through expansion of existing products and markets, or identification of new products and markets
• Finding new ways to add value to agricultural products
• Pilot and demonstration programs that have the potential for transferability within Virginia’s tobacco region, within rural Virginia and in other tobacco states.
More Information

Submission Limits
There are no limits to the number of applications which can be forwarded to the Commission’s Grants Administration office for further consideration. However, all applications must be sent to the Office of the Vice President for Research as an e-mail attachment to utdsubs@vt.edu for initial screening.

Title
Investigators in Pathogenesis of Infectious Diseases
Agencies
Burroughs Wellcome Fund (BWF)
Description
This program provides opportunities for assistant professors to bring multidisciplinary approaches to the study of human infectious diseases. The goal of the program is to provide opportunities for accomplished investigators still early in their careers to study the pathogenesis of infectious disease at its most fundamental level - the points where human and microbial systems connect. The program supports research that sheds light on the fundamentals that affect the outcomes of this encounter: how colonization, infection, commensalism, and other relationships play out at levels ranging from molecular interactions to systemic ones. BWF is particularly interested in work focused on the host, as well as host-pathogen studies originating in viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasite systems. Studies supported by the program may have their roots in the pathogen, but the focus of the work should be on the interplay of host and microbe.
While work on AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and microbes of interest for biodefense is allowed, the program emphasizes areas of research that open up unexplored areas of pathogenesis. Nominating institutions should note that research on underfunded and understudied organisms is especially of interest: proposed work in well-funded systems may be viewed as less relevant to the program's goals. Research on understudied infectious diseases, including pathogenic fungi, protozoan and metazoan diseases, and emerging infections is especially of interest. In addition, excellent animal models of human disease, including work done in veterinary research settings, are within the program's scope. Interdisciplinary approaches are encouraged.
The awards are intended to give recipients the freedom and flexibility to pursue high-risk projects and new avenues of inquiry. Work supported will be efforts that have the potential to significantly advance the understanding of how microbes and the human system interact, especially in the context of infection. Biochemical, pharmacological, molecular, genetic, immunologic, and other approaches are all appropriate for support by the program. Areas of particular interest include the following:
1. Cell/Pathogen interactions - studies of host responses at the cell surface, cell signaling in response to infection, microbial persistence in host cells, and other work.
2. Host/Pathogen interactions - studies of how host genetics influences resistance and susceptibility to infection, innate and adaptive immune responses to microbes, pathogen modulation of the immune system, and other work.
3. Novel routes to disease causation - studies of the role of infectious agents in the etiology of chronic, autoimmune, and immunologic diseases, and other work.
Approaches that fit into these frameworks might include the study of host susceptibility to particular pathogens, host resistance to chronic or acute disease, or basic studies of infectious microbes - as long as the work is oriented toward understanding how the organism interacts with the host. Virulence factors, immune mechanisms, and genetic studies in microbes and the host all provide fertile ground for this kind of study.

Submission Limits
A U.S. or Canadian institution—including its medical school, graduate schools, and all affiliated hospitals and research institutes—may nominate up to two candidates. To encourage applications from veterinarians, institutions that nominate a researcher who holds the D.V.M. will be allowed three nominations.

Title
High Performance Computing System Acquisition: Towards a Petascale Computing Environment for Science and Engineering
Agencies
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Description
NSF’s five-year goal for high performance computing (HPC) is to enable petascale science and engineering through the deployment and support of a world-class HPC environment comprising the most capable combination of HPC assets available to the academic community. By the year 2010, the petascale HPC environment will enable investigations of computationally challenging problems that require computing systems capable of delivering sustained performance approaching 1015 floating point operations per second (petaflops) on real applications, that consume large amounts of memory, and/or that work with very large data sets. Among other things, researchers will be able to perform simulations that are intrinsically multi-scale or that involve the simultaneous interaction of multiple processes.
HPC Resource Providers - those organizations willing to acquire, deploy and operate HPC systems in service to the broad science and engineering research and education community - play a key role in the provision and support of a national HPC environment. With this solicitation, NSF requests proposals from organizations willing to serve as HPC Resource Providers, and who propose to acquire and deploy a new, innovative HPC system.
Competitive HPC systems will:
• Expand the range of computationally-challenging science and engineering applications that can be tackled with the TeraGrid HPC portfolio;
• Incorporate reliable, robust system software essential to optimal sustained performance; and
• Provide a high degree of stability and usability.
A robust and effective HPC acquisition process, driven by the requirements of the science and engineering research and education community, is one of the key elements of NSF’s HPC strategy. System performance on an appropriate set of benchmarks will thus be a key factor in system selection. Benchmarks should be designed to capture the salient attributes of those science and engineering applications placing the most stringent demands on the systems to be provisioned. A set of performance requirements and benchmarks for this competition were posted on the NSF web-site at NSF 0605 in November, 2005. Proposers are also required to provide projections for additional benchmarks of their own choosing.

Outstanding New Environmental Scientist award (ONES) (R01)
Agencies
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS)
Description
In order to identify outstanding scientists at the formative stages of their career and assist them in launching an innovative research program with a defined impact in the environmental health sciences, the NIEHS has established a program of R01 research grants intended for researchers who have not received their first R01 research grant. It is designed to be highly competitive, and only a limited number are awarded per year.
Research programs supported by this announcement seek to promote career advancement of the most highly creative and promising new scientists who intend to make a long-term career commitment to research in the mainstream of the environmental health sciences, and bring innovative, ground-breaking research initiatives and thinking to bear on the problems of how environmental exposures affect human biology, human pathophysiology and human disease.
Research projects proposed in response to this FOA will be expected to have a defined impact on the environmental health sciences and be responsive to the mission of the NIEHS, which is distinguished from that of other Institutes by its focus on research programs seeking to link the effects of environmental exposures to the cause, mechanisms, moderation, or prevention of a human disease or disorder or relevant pathophysiologic process. For purposes of this announcement, all applications must focus on a specific human disease, dysfunction, pathophysiologic condition, or relevant human biologic process and propose to study a specific environmentally relevant toxicant. Examples of environmentally relevant toxicants include industrial chemicals or manufacturing byproducts, metals, pesticides, herbicides, air pollutants and other inhaled toxicants, particulates or fibers, fungal, and bacterial or biologically derived toxins.
Agents considered non-responsive to this announcement include, but are not limited to, alcohol; chemotherapeutic agents; radiation which is not a result of an ambient environmental exposure; smoking, except when considered as a secondary smoke exposure as a component in the indoor environment (particularly in children); drugs of abuse; pharmaceuticals; dietary nutrients; and infectious or parasitic agents, except when these are disease co-factors to an environmental toxicant exposure to produce the biological effect.
Applications which propose to study only model compounds must provide a clear, reasonable and specific description as to how research on the model compound will lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in responses to specific environmental agents which are included in the mission responsibility of the NIEHS. The peer review committee will assess whether or not the applicant has made sufficient justification to study the model compound.
Ecologic, biomonitoring, biotransformation, environmental engineering or biodegradation studies are also not responsive, except when these elements are incidental to the study of the disease endpoint.

Description
This CAMS program is the result of the reformulation of the Career Awards in the Biomedical Sciences (CABS), which was instituted by the BWF in 1995 and ran through the 2006 award year. In response to the NIH's K99/R00 Pathway to Independence program, which was modeled after the CABS award, BWF has shifted the focus of the CABS program to address the ongoing problem of increasing the number of physician scientists and keeping them in research. BWF believes that this bridging award, supporting the last year(s) of a mentored position in addition to supporting the beginning years of an independent position, will facilitate the transition to a career in research and buy time from service commitments. The CAMS program provides financial support to bridge advanced postdoctoral/fellowship training and the early years of faculty service. Proposals must be in the area of basic biomedical, disease oriented, translational, or molecular, genetic, or pharmacological epidemiology research. Proposals that are in the area of epidemiology should contact BWF to determine the eligibility of the proposal. Proposals in health services research or involving large-scale clinical trials are ineligible. Award recipients are required to devote at least 75 percent of their time to research-related activities.
