Only one application per institution (normally identified by having a unique NIH Institutional Profile Number, IPF) is allowed.

The NIH Research Education Program (UE5) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of this UE5 program is to support educational activities that encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, to pursue further studies or careers in research. 

To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this NOFO will support educational activities with a primary focus on:

  • Courses for Skills Development
  • Mentoring Activities

The goal of the MOSAIC Research Education Award (UE5) is to support educational activities for MOSAIC K99/R00 scholars that will equip them with the professional skills, and provide them with the appropriate mentoring opportunities and professional networks to allow them to transition into, advance, and succeed in independent, tenure-track or equivalent research-intensive faculty careers. Awardee Organizations must provide career development and mentoring activities aligned with and appropriate for the disciplinary backgrounds of scholars supported through the MOSAIC K99/R00 program. Areas of programmatic need will be indicated through Notices of Special Interest (NOSIs) released annually by NIH. Applications that do not address the program areas of need specified in the NOSI will be considered non-responsive and will not be reviewed.

NEH 20240912-CLI : FY2025 Climate Smart Humanities Organizations

No Applicants  // Limit:  1  // Tickets Available: 1 

 

An organization may submit only one application under this notice.

 

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Office of Challenge Programs is accepting applications for the Climate Smart Humanities Organizations program. This program strengthens the institutional base of the humanities by funding operational assessments and strategic planning efforts to sustain and protect historical, cultural, educational, intellectual, and physical assets from the risks of climate change. Projects will result in a climate action, resilience, or adaptation plan including detailed assessments, measurable actions, and expected outcomes. Proposals must address how strategic planning for climate change will increase the organization’s resilience and support its work in the humanities over the long term. Projects are financed through a combination of federal matching funds and gifts raised from third-party, non-federal sources.

DOE DE-FOA-0003329: FY2025 Smart Manufacturing Technologies for Material and Process Innovation

Limit:  4*  // Tickets Available: 1

 

*An entity may submit only one Concept Paper and one Full Application for each topic area of this FOA.

A. Anani (Department of Mining and Geological Engineering)– Topic 4: Smart Technologies for Sustainable and Competitive U.S. Mining 

Q. Hao (Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering) - Topic 3: Smart Manufacturing for High Performance Materials 
 

Topic Areas:

  • Topic 1: Smart Manufacturing for a Circular Economy 
  • Topic 2: Smart Manufacturing of Tooling and Equipment for Sustainable Transportation 
  • Topic 3: Smart Manufacturing for High Performance Materials 
  • Topic 4: Smart Technologies for Sustainable and Competitive U.S. Mining 

 

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is being issued by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO). The mission of AMMTO is: “We inspire people and drive innovation to transform materials and manufacturing for America's energy future.” This is in alignment with AMMTO’s vision for the future – a globally competitive U.S. manufacturing sector that accelerates the adoption of innovative materials and manufacturing technologies in support of a clean, decarbonized economy.

This FOA seeks applications to address the development of smart manufacturing technologies –including through “smart RD&D” – that can contribute to a resilient, responsive, leading-edge, and efficient manufacturing sector that delivers the technologies needed for the nation’s clean energy transition. The manufacturing community can reduce manufacturing costs and accelerate time-to-market by integrating performance characteristics of final products with processes aided by a smart manufacturing framework. The information-driven collaborative orchestration of physical and digital processes across the entire value chain is one aspect of smart manufacturing. Smart manufacturing relies on a combination of physical and virtual technologies to make designing, processing, and manufacturing faster, higher value-added, more resilient, sustainable, and more cost-effective. Individual processes within a plant, factory, or entire value chain are integrated and continually monitored with sensing, process modeling, and predictive analytics. The physical processes focus on controlling and optimizing processing conditions for desired outcomes, while virtual processes uncover underlying complex interactions between the physical processes and provide insight into better ways to design and manufacture products (i.e., feedback for physical processes). This FOA seeks to implement smart manufacturing across several diverse application areas and market sectors to: (a) show the benefits of incorporating smart manufacturing in areas aligned with AMMTO’s mission, and (b) to provide practical experience which will be used to further refine AMMTO’s smart manufacturing strategy and future R&D direction.

FY25 Mellon Foundation: Sawyer Seminar

Following this 2024-2025 cycle, the competition will be paused in 2025-2026 for an evaluation of the pilot’s outcomes that will inform a full re-launch planned for 2026-2027.

 

We are delighted to announce a pilot for Mellon’s re-envisioning of the Seminars, in celebration of their 30th anniversary this October. Since 1994, the Sawyer Seminar program has provided support for comparative research on historical and contemporary topics of scholarly significance. In recent years, Mellon’s grantmaking has reflected a new strategic priority of imagining and creating socially just, equitable futures. In an effort to align Sawyers more closely with this goal, we are reorienting the program for the 2024 competition and beyond to focus on the study of major social and political challenges that directly impact the structures and practices characterizing the American university.

Through this shift, we seek to celebrate the program’s original mission of elevating critical scholarship while also reframing the Seminars for our present moment, when universities—and, especially, humanities study—are facing a myriad of unprecedented challenges. We envision Sawyer Seminars, which for nearly three decades have been a vehicle for transformative thought, as a useful means through which humanities-grounded, multidisciplinary teams of faculty and other academic leaders can collaboratively address critical issues affecting their campuses. Accordingly, the subject we are asking applicants to consider this year is academic freedom and democracy in the American university.

The overall format of the envisioned seminars remains largely unchanged. The main variation is that, while earlier Sawyer competitions were largely centered on comparative historical study, this year's submissions should focus specifically on the future of the American university. We are especially eager to see innovative humanistic approaches and methods of inquiry brought to bear on the topic of academic freedom and democracy in the American university. More detailed guidelines, a program overview, and an official invitation to submit will be shared over the summer.

In the meantime, on behalf of the Higher Learning team, I thank you for your continued interest in Sawyer Seminars as we enter their next phase. We hope this brief update allows you to initiate plans for your internal search for proposals, and we look forward to being in touch again soon with further details.
