	Notice of Intent Deadline of Dec 14, 2018 Has Passed
Title Ancillary Studies to the NIDDK Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium Agencies National Institutes of Health (NIH) Description Since its establishment in 2002, the NIDDK IBDGC, in collaboration with the International IBD Genetics Consortium (IIBDGC), has identified about 200 previously unknown susceptibility loci for IBD. These newly identified loci have helped to elaborate a wealth of new detail in our understanding of the roles of the innate and acquired immune systems in the pathophysiology of IBD. The IBDGC has also identified a previously unsuspected role for the autophagy pathway in IBD pathophysiology. However, the vast majority of the newly identified loci contain multiple genes, and for about 90% of these loci, causal genes and genetic variants have yet to be identified. The mechanisms by which most of the newly discovered susceptibility loci affect IBD pathophysiology thus remain unknown. The IBDGC has recently been awarded renewed funding to elucidate these mechanisms. However, the IBDGC's current resources permit them to explore the functions of only a limited number of genes within a limited set of physiological domains. This FOA invites investigators from outside the IBDGC to establish collaborations with the IBDGC to exploit more fully the great wealth of well-characterized patients, biological samples, and data already amassed by the IBDGC to elucidate the mechanisms by which IBD susceptibility genetic variants influence the pathophysiology of IBD. Investigators from a wide range of disciplines with possible relevance to IBD (e.g., immunology, cell biology, microbiology, bioinformatics, systems biology) are encouraged to respond to this FOA. Applications must not duplicate studies already completed or ongoing within the IBDGC. Multi-site clinical trials will not be considered responsive to this FOA. At the time of submission, applications to this FOA must include a letter from the Chair or Vice-Chair of the Steering Committee of the IBDGC indicating that the IBDGC is willing to provide the ancillary study investigators with access to participants, samples, and data, as needed. Activities appropriate for ancillary studies include the following, as well as many others not mentioned in this list: Genetic analysis of IBD-related clinical and biological phenotypes in domains not previously investigated (e.g., intestinal remodeling and healing, enteric nervous system), Epigenomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses of relevant tissue samples from recruited subjects, and systems biology analyses of the resulting data, Analyses of the composition and activities of the intestinal microbiome of recruited subjects, Screening of candidate genes and genetic variants in gut barrier, mucosal immune, and other physiological domains, using cultured cells, organoids, Drosophila, zebrafish, mice, and other assay platforms, Analyses of the relationships among host genetic variation, intestinal microbiome composition and activity, and variation in the presentation, severity, natural history, and response to treatment of IBD, Elucidation of regulatory interactions between DNA sites within the known IBD susceptibility loci and other genes, regardless of their genomic location, or Reanalysis of existing data with novel analytic approaches to identify previously unknown susceptibility loci.

Title Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR): Data Science Corps (DSC) Agencies National Science Foundation (NSF) Description In 2016, the National Science Foundation (NSF) unveiled a set of “Big Ideas,” 10 bold, long-term research and process ideas that identify areas for future investment at the frontiers of science and engineering (see https://www.nsf.gov/news/special_reports/big_ideas/index.jsp ). The Big Ideas represent unique opportunities to position our Nation at the cutting edge of global science and engineering leadership by bringing together diverse disciplinary perspectives to support convergence research. As such, when responding to this solicitation, even though proposals must be submitted to the Division of Information and Intelligent Systems (IIS) within the Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE), once received, the proposals will be managed by a cross-disciplinary team of NSF Program Directors. NSF’s Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Big Idea is a visionary, national-scale activity to enable new modes of data-driven discovery, allowing fundamentally new questions to be asked and answered in science and engineering frontiers, generating new knowledge and understanding, and accelerating discovery and innovation. The HDR vision is realized via a coordinated set of program solicitations resulting in an ecosystem of interrelated activities enabling (i) research in the foundations of data science; frameworks, algorithms, and systems for data science; and data-driven research in science and engineering; (ii) advanced cyberinfrastructure; and (iii) education and workforce development —all of which are designed to amplify the intrinsically multidisciplinary nature of the data science challenge. The HDR Big Idea will establish theoretical, technical, and ethical data science frameworks, and apply them to practical problems in science and engineering, and in society more generally. The Data Science Corps is one of the components of the HDR ecosystem, focusing on building capacity for harnessing the data revolution at the local, state, national, and international levels to help unleash the power of data in the service of science and society. The Data Science Corps will provide practical experiences, teach new skills, and offer teaching opportunities, in a variety of settings, to data scientists and data science students. It will also strive to promote data literacy and provide basic training in data science to the existing workforce across communities. As a first step in establishing the Data Science Corps, this solicitation focuses specifically on enabling participation by undergraduate students in the Data Science Corps, by supporting student stipends for participation in data science projects and supporting integration of real-world data science projects into classroom instruction. More Information https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19518/nsf19518.pdf Submission Limits Only one proposal is permitted per organization. An individual may participate in only one proposal as PI, co-PI, or Senior Personnel. These eligibility constraints will be strictly enforced in order to treat everyone fairly and consistently. In the event that an individual exceeds this limit, a proposal received within the limit will be accepted based on earliest date and time of proposal submission (i.e., the first proposal received will be accepted and the remainder will be returned without review). No exceptions will be made.

	Notice of Intent Deadline of Dec 5, 2018 Has Passed — [All slots are filled]
Title MAP: Supporting On-the-ground Work On Our National Forests Agencies Description Program FocusThe National Forest Foundation (NFF) Matching Awards Program (MAP) provides funding for results-oriented on-the-ground projects that enhance forest health and outdoor experiences on National Forests and Grasslands. On-the-ground ProjectsMAP supports the implementation of on-the-ground conservation and restoration projects that have an immediate, quantifiable impact on the National Forest System. These projects provide a lasting impact to the lands, waters, and wildlife of the National Forest System through the alteration of the physical environment. PROGRAM AREASThe current NFF strategic plan focuses on the Program Areas of Outdoor Experiences and Forest Health. Organizations may self-select into one of the Program Areas defined below, or choose to submit a proposal that cohesively integrates the two Program Areas. Projects that strongly integrate the program areas are highly encouraged. The NFF does not have funding targets for the Program Areas, and strongly encourages applicants to integrate the programs areas cohesively in their proposals.Outdoor Experiences Program Area Forest Health Program Area Integrated Projects CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENTIn addition to focusing on the above Program Areas, MAP requires projects show a strong commitment to civic engagement and community involvement through direct public participation. In order to be eligible for MAP funding, projects must contain significant, legitimate community involvement or civic engagement in the pre-implementation, implementation, or post-implementation phase. Typically, this involves the use of volunteers in project implementation, or the implementation of projects selected as an outcome of a formal collaborative-planning process. Note that the community engagement portion of the project does not necessarily have to occur in the portion of the project receiving MAP funding, although the project narrative must clearly describe the community engagement component. The standard public involvement component of the NEPA process is insufficient to meet this requirement.EDUCATION, INTERPRETATION, INVENTORY, AND MONITORING PROJECTSEducation, interpretation, inventory, and monitoring are not priorities for the use of MAP funds. Education and interpretation may only receive consideration as minor components of otherwise well-aligned larger projects. Projects with inventory or monitoring components may only receive consideration if those components focus on determining the long-term effectiveness of previous NFF funded on-the-ground work. The NFF encourages applicants to use funding from other sources (including project match) for any portion of a project focused on education, interpretation, inventory, or monitoring. More Information https://www.nationalforests.org/grant-programs/map Submission Limits Organizations may have only one MAP award open at a time and should submit no more than one application per round. Cost Sharing: MAP requires a 1:1 cash match of secured nonfederal funds. In-kind contributions are not eligible for use as match but should be documented to show project leverage. Matching funds must be expended within the dates of the NFF grant, and toward completion of the same project activities proposed for NFF funding.
