Purpose
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit applications to maintain or establish Lead Academic Organizations (LAOs) as part of the NCI Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN). ETCTN LAOs will design, develop, monitor, conduct, and analyze early phase clinical trials (e.g., phase 0, phase 1, phase 2, pilot, and other experimental therapeutic clinical trials) involving agents under regulatory sponsorship for New Investigational Drug (IND) applications held by NCI's Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD), Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP). Each ETCTN LAO will participate in clinical trials it leads as well as clinical trials led by other LAOs in the network. 

The ETCTN LAOs will provide oversight for all scientific, programmatic, financial, and administrative matters related to the sites participating in ETCTN trials as part of their LAOs. ETCTN LAOs are also expected to provide mentorship for investigators who are in the early stages of their research careers with a focus on clinical trials. All ETCTN LAOs will be required to use the ETCTN Pharmacokinetic (PK) Resource Laboratory as a central resource to incorporate PK studies within their early phase clinical trials, when appropriate, to analyze pharmacokinetic endpoints, drug-drug interactions, cytochromes P450 (CYP) interactions, pharmacodynamics, and food effects associated with IND agents being evaluated in ETCTN trials. This PK Laboratory will conduct all pharmacokinetic studies for ETCTN clinical trials involving Investigational New Drug (IND) agents under the regulatory sponsorship of NCI’s Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD), Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP).  The ETCTN Pharmacokinetic Resource Laboratory  is funded through a separate award under the NOFO listed below.

• The ETCTN – Network Pharmacokinetic Resource Laboratory under RFA-CA-27-017.

Summary 

This NOFO’s aim is to improve awareness and knowledge of alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) in the United States. AGS is an emerging condition and is not nationally notifiable. This will happen through:

• The creation of a professional network of AGS researchers and public health professionals.
• Improved surveillance.
• Improved communications materials.

This NOFO seeks to improve:

• AGS surveillance.
• Patient care.
• Awareness and understanding.
   

The NOFO’s three main strategies are to:

• Share: Disseminate the latest knowledge about AGS among stakeholders to improve patient care for AGS and the public health response.
  • This includes public health agencies, academic researchers, and
    advocacy groups.
• Track: Conduct active or enhanced surveillance for AGS.
  • This strategy could involve patient populations or geographic locations with limited access to specialized healthcare provider care.
• Educate: Create AGS communications targeted at the general public, AGS patients, and/or people at higher risk for tick encounters (outdoor enthusiasts, dog owners, etc.).
  • Communications targeted at healthcare providers, healthcare provider educational resources, and training would also fall under this strategy.

Program Information
The purposes of the Personnel Development to Improve Services and Results for Children with Disabilities program are to (1) help address State- identified shortages and needs for personnel preparation in special education and early intervention, including infants and toddlers, and youth with disabilities; and (2) ensure that those personnel have the necessary skills and knowledge, derived from practices that have been determined through scientifically based research, to be successful in serving those children. 

The purpose of the Personnel Preparation of Special Education, Early Intervention, and Related Services Personnel (84.325K) competition is to prepare and increase the number of personnel who have the necessary qualifications to serve children with disabilities. Under this absolute priority, ED will fund grantees that use evidence-based strategies to prepare scholars in special education, early intervention, and related services at the bachelor’s degree, certification, master’s degree, educational specialist degree, or clinical doctoral degree levels to serve in a variety of settings, including natural environments (the home and community settings in which children with and without disabilities participate), early learning programs, child care, classrooms, and schools.

Limiting Language
The University of Arizona may submit two proposals for each cycle. 

Program Description
The APS Foundation supports programs that enhance academic achievement in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Since 1981, the Foundation has invested more than $44 million in projects throughout Arizona that help prepare students to compete in a 21st century economy.

A workforce proficient in STEM skills is critical to attracting and retaining high-quality businesses and industries to the state. The APS Foundation targets projects that help educators increase content knowledge in STEM subjects as well as the ability to transfer this knowledge effectively to students.

Typical funding amount to universities if $50-75k. 

Program Information: 

• Organizations must be registered as a 501(c)(3) public charity in good financial and public standing. At this University of Arizona, this means that your proposal will route through the University of Arizona Foundation. For more information on this, please contact Cyndi Laughren.
• Programs should demonstrate their ability to improve educational outcomes, increase access and/or offer an innovative approach to learning. The impact should be described and quantified where possible.
• Programs that support teacher professional development is APS Foundation’s primary focus. 
• Programs that impact students, supporting them in achievements in STEM, are the next priority.
• Pilot projects may be funded, and those awards are generally in the $10,000 - $30,000 range
• Programs requesting substantial funding (≥$75,000) should demonstrate proof of concept, detailed budget, and have a detailed execution plan.
• Strong measurements for proof of success are essential, especially for higher dollar asks. (At minimum, a pre, during, and post survey or variation of measurement will be required)
• Criteria used for evaluation include scalability, sustainability, and ability to leverage other funding (not required).
• Programs that serve underserved/under resourced students are well-received.
• All grantees will have specific reporting requirements and must submit a final evaluation before they can be considered for additional funding.

Please note, the APS Foundation will not support:
• Individuals
• Individual K-12 schools
• Religious organizations, churches and programs that are purely denominational in purpose
• Political, labor or fraternal organizations, associations or civic service clubs
• Legislative, lobbying or advocacy efforts or organizations
• Private or family foundations
• Animal shelters or agencies
• Foundations or organizations which are grant-making entities or that distribute funds to other nonprofit organizations (pass through)
• Start-up organizations defined as nonprofits whose ruling year has been granted by the IRS for less than three years
• Organizations that discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, disability, gender, gender identity, age, national origin, sexual orientation, marital status, protected veteran status or any other classification protected by law
• Health organizations whose primary focus is funding programs or services for a specific disease or illness
• Sports teams or sporting programs
• Scouting troops
While not a part of our traditional grant program, the APS Foundation occasionally supports capital requests of our long-standing partners on an invite-only basis.

Proposal Tips from the spring cycle webinar: 

• Proposals should be written in lay language accessible to a broad audience.
• A detailed overview of the program is recommended. Instead of stating that you plan to support the professional development of teachers, outline how you plan to do so and what the deliverables will be.
• Describe and quantify the program's intended impact (number of students, teachers, etc) and reach.
• Multi-year funding is not available.
• Higher asks will be scrutinized at a higher level. Please ensure you have a solid description, strong success measurements, and have an established program/project for best chance of being successful.
• Pilot projects are allowable but tend to be funded at a lower dollar amount, typically in the $10,000 to $30,000 range.
