Purpose of the Funding 
The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) is committed to advancing work that furthers the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) mission to keep our country safe and secure and uphold the rule of law and protect the rights of American citizens. OJP provides federal leadership, funding, and other critical resources to directly support law enforcement, combat violent crime, protect American children, provide services to American crime victims, and address public safety challenges, including human trafficking and the opioid crisis. 

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the BJA FY 2026 Upholding the Rule of Law and Preventing Wrongful Convictions Program. This opportunity strengthens the capacity of wrongful conviction review (WCR) entities and their criminal justice and victims’ services partners to more effectively and efficiently identify, assess, and manage post-conviction claims of innocence. Additionally, it aims to enhance public safety by preventing future errors, identifying actual perpetrators of crimes, and delivering justice to victims. 

Projects under this NOFO will be led by a WCR entity that focuses on the review of postconviction claims of innocence. This project can support a collaborative partnership with a prosecutor’s office or conviction integrity units (CIUs). If applicants include this partnership, they should document how it will coordinate relevant information-sharing of post-conviction claims of innocence. It must include a description of policies and procedures that are in place to avoid conflicts of interest and protect defendants’ rights, including plans for obtaining a waiver of attorney-client privilege and informed consent.

Executive Summary
The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) program in Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) hereby announces interest in receiving applications to develop a concerted quantum computing verification and validation capability.  This effort should consist of interdisciplinary multi-institutional teams addressing the challenge of characterizing performance of fault-tolerant quantum computers that will accelerate scientific discovery and enable new computational workflows.  Successful efforts are expected to develop and apply a complete set of necessary tools and expertise to perform performance verification of fault tolerant quantum computers.  They should address multiple qubit technologies and be designed with enough flexibility to accommodate the rapidly evolving needs of the DOE. 

Proposed efforts should develop new and adapt existing tools for characterizing the quantum computing stack: physical hardware; quantum gates; logical quantum architecture; quantum algorithm and applications, and classical control. These teams will pave the way for the deployment of a first-of-a-kind scientifically relevant fault-tolerant quantum computing capability for the Nation, advancing DOE's mission, and ensuring America’s security, economic and scientific competitiveness, and prosperity.  Teams are encouraged to leverage the extensive scientific software, hardware, algorithms, and data resources developed under the ASCR and SC quantum-computing-related solicitations and by U.S. industry and academia.  The resulting tools, applications, and workflows may be integrated into the Genesis Mission infrastructure platform and the American Science Cloud for broad adoption by research communities. 

Proposed efforts must focus on the developing, testing, and applying algorithms, benchmarks, and software tools for real-world quantum systems.  Teams must validate their tools by demonstrating successful performance verification of the state-of-the-art quantum hardware.  Quantum hardware research and development efforts are out of scope, unless they are essential for tools development and validation.  ASCR anticipates that teams will engage in multiple quantum hardware evaluations in parallel across several qubit technologies, and the size and composition of the teams should be appropriate to meet this requirement.

Limiting Language
Centers may be included in only one application. Duplicate applications will be marked as ineligible.

Purpose
Through this CFP, RWJF will expand its efforts to transform deeply rooted beliefs about which data and research methods are valued, whose perspectives are prioritized, and which populations deserve resources. This CFP works to achieve transformation by incorporating a holistic funding approach that focuses on the infrastructure and capacity support that research centers need to meaningfully engage in research in the first place. RWJF understands that no single philanthropy can completely fill the gap left by ongoing federal funding cuts; however, this CFP demonstrates strong support for research, researchers, and research centers that are well positioned to pave the way toward a future where health is not a privilege, but a right.  

RWJF believes in health equity research that is grounded in systems thinking; supports and disseminates evidence identifying and implementing structural solutions to racial and health inequities; and increases power, representation, and agency among historically underrepresented researchers. By supporting the infrastructure and capacity-building needs of MSIs, this opportunity strengthens their ability to generate critical evidence and to cultivate transformative, actionable solutions toward health equity.  

This CFP seeks mission-aligned institutions interested in participating in cohort-style peer learning to advance their ability to engage in health equity research and apply for competitive funding opportunities in the future.

Overview
The purpose of this solicitation is to acquire technology maturation, risk reduction, and capability demonstration efforts in five technology areas that address lunar and cislunar infrastructure technology gaps. These efforts are intended to generate the knowledge foundation NASA needs to support informed technical and programmatic decisions. The scope of this solicitation is derived from NASA Space Technology’s Civil Space Shortfalls and focuses on near-term mission-relevant lunar and cislunar technology priorities. 

The Government is seeking innovative solutions in the following five technology areas (hereafter referred to as “Topics”): 

• Topic 1: Vertical Solar Array 
• Topic 2: In Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) Oxygen from Regolith Production System 
• Topic 3: Radioisotope Stirling Generator System 
• Topic 4: In Space Advanced Manufacturing 
• Topic 5: Innovative Nanomaterials Production 

Each Topic constitutes a separate competitive opportunity under this solicitation authority.

Executive Summary
The Bureau of Emerging Threats (ET) leads the Department of State in anticipating and responding to national security challenges arising from adversary use of new technologies across cyberspace, outer space, critical infrastructure and undersea domains, quantum technologies, and artificial intelligence (AI). ET focuses on protecting U.S. national security in these areas of strategic and technological competition using diplomatic tools and interagency capabilities as part of coordinated foreign policy responses.

Within ET, the Office of Critical Infrastructure Security (ET/CI) is responsible for addressing novel threats and disruptions to critical infrastructure that threaten lives, economic stability, and national power. ET/CI addresses threat vectors targeting major critical infrastructure sectors, including energy systems, communications networks, transportation and logistics, financial systems, healthcare, and water, and works to coordinate “upgrade and secure” efforts with allies and partners, counter attacks against data centers, and protect against cloud security vulnerabilities.

In the Western Hemisphere, adversaries have exploited weak cyber defenses in government networks and critical infrastructure to gain intelligence advantages, potential coercive leverage over sovereign decision-making, and latent access pathways that may extend to U.S. interests. Argentina, under the Milei administration, has signaled that it seeks close alignment with the United States on strategic and economic issues, including a deliberate transition away from untrusted foreign digital infrastructure suppliers in favor of trusted, market-oriented partners.

Persistent and sophisticated cyber threats—including advanced persistent threats (APTs), targeted ransomware, and espionage campaigns—continue to target Argentine ministries and critical infrastructure. Without a mature national-level Security Operations Center (SOC) with clear authorities, mission, charter, and well-trained staff, a country’s ability to detect, analyze, and respond to such threats in a coordinated manner remains limited.
