Title WiSTEM2D Scholars Program MANUFACTURING (Women in STEM) Agencies Johnson & Johnson (J&J) Description The J&J WiSTEM2D Scholars Award Program will help develop female leaders and support innovation in the STEM2D disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, Manufacturing, Design) by funding six women at critical points in their research careers through a Scholar’s Award. The Scholars Award is a 3-year award in the gross amount of $150,000, which will be paid to the University (the “Recipient”) for the benefit of the J&J Scholar and her research, with the understanding that the Recipient will administer the funds. The Scholars Award will be paid in three (3) installments of US $50,000 per year over the 3-year award period, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the program’s Agreement. The six inaugural awards will be available in 2018 and aim to fund one woman per area of STEM2D concentration in the early career stage where they have concluded their advanced degree training but are not at the level of tenure in their accredited university or design school institution. The early-career support is aimed to be a catalyst for women to become leaders in their organizations and fields. The program will help build a larger pool of highly-trained researchers to meet the growing needs of academia and industry. Indirect costs not allowed. Application Process: Application Phase 1 In addition to general contact details and demographics, the scholar applicant is responsible for the provision of documents into the Fluid Review system, including non-confidential letters of recommendation. Submit a department head letter of recommendation (One applicant per university per letter of STEM2D) . Write 1,000 words (plus one page of images) detailing your proposed area of research. Create and submit a one-minute digital video describing, as simply as possible, the impact of the research on your area of STEM2D and your own personal impact as a potential future leader in STEM2D. Submit PDF files of three selected publications or pieces of portfolio that represent your most important contributions with a focus on the most recent five years. Submit your resume (three pages, font size 11), including a list of publications, presentations, abstracts, current financial support already obtained, other folio work and two references. Brief outline of budget for proposed research. Application Phase 2 Present a five-minute summary of the proposed research and societal impact in a digital video. More Information https://www.jnj.com/wistem2d Submission Limits each University and/or Academic Institute can support and recommend one applicant per each STEM2D discipline. Therefore, each University and/or Academic Institute can support a total of 6 applicant submissions (one for Science, one for Technology, one for Engineering, etc.) Deadlines Internal Notice of Intent Oct 16, 2017 Notification of Internal Competition Oct 17, 2017 Internal Pre-proposal Oct 20, 2017 Results of Internal Competition Oct 24, 2017 Agency Notice of Intent/Pre-proposal N/A Agency Proposal Oct 31, 2017

Title Collaborative Program Grant for Multidisciplinary Teams (RM1) Agencies National Institutes of Health (NIH) Description Many research questions in biomedical science can be pursued by single investigators and their close collaborators and are adequately supported by individual and multiple PD/PI research grants. However, the scope of some scientific problems is beyond the capabilities of a small group of investigators. Such complex and challenging research questions benefit from the integrated efforts of teams of research laboratories employing complementary approaches and having diverse areas of intellectual and technical expertise, and the necessary resources to accomplish a unified scientific goal. Such team-based efforts can produce convergent, lasting scientific benefits with high impact, such as the creation of new disciplines of study, resolution of long standing or intractable problems, or definition of new areas that challenge current paradigms. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages Collaborative Program Grant applications from institutions/organizations that propose to conduct research to address complex and challenging biomedical problems, important for the mission of NIGMS, through deeply integrated, multidisciplinary research teams. The Collaborative Program Grant is designed to support research in which funding a team of interdependent investigators offers significant advantages over support of individual research project grants. Applications should address critical issues and be sufficiently challenging, ambitious, and innovative that objectives could not be achieved by individual investigators. More Information https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-17-340.html Submission Limits Only one application per institution per review cycle is allowed, as defined in Section III. 3.
