The Center is also international and gladly accepts applications from scholars outside the United States. HEALTH & LIFE SCIENCES27-4 Bio-Medical Research Topics (DOD)The US Special Operations Command is soliciting pre-proposals focused on applied biomedical research topics that may be of interest to Special Operations Forces (SOF) -relevant aspects of medical care, particularly related to: combat casualty management; medical aspects of mission planning, biomedical training, environmental protection, vibration/shock injury, diving procedures, equipment and injuries, exercise and mission related physiology, field diagnostic and care equipment; and medical information management systems. H92222-07-BAA062707 (FBO 6/26/07) 27-5 Advancing Novel Science in Women's Health Research (ANSWHR) (R03) (NIH)The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement, issued by the Office of Research on Women's Health and co-sponsoring NIH Institutes and centers, is to promote innovative, interdisciplinary research that will advance new concepts in women's health research and the study of sex/gender differences. Recent research reports have established the importance of studying issues specific to women, including the scientific and clinical importance of analyzing data separately for females and males. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R03) award mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scope, PAS-07-381, that solicits applications under the Small Research Grant and Exploratory/Developmental (R21) award mechanism. PAS-07-382 (NIHG 6/15/07) 27-6 Collaborative Studies on Systems Biology of Complex Phenotypes (R01) (NIH)The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) invites applications for collaborative research projects that use systems biology approaches to investigate the mechanisms that underlie genetic determination of complex phenotypes. These projects will combine computational modeling approaches and experimental validation of predictive models. It is expected that a team of at least two principal investigators (PIs), one with expertise in systems biology and the other with expertise in the genetics of human or model organisms, will apply for funding under this FOA. Applications from a single investigator or that propose solely data production and accumulation will be considered non-responsive and will not be reviewed. RFA-GM-08-001 (NIHG 4/27/07) 27-7 Career Enhancement Award for Stem Cell Research (K18) (NIH)The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to encourage investigators to obtain the training and career development they need to appropriately use stem cells in their research. The use of stem cells in biomedical research offers the potential for significant advances in the next decades, provided investigators not only understand this potential, but are equipped to take advantage of it. Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) have only recently become available and most investigators are not prepared to handle, maintain, or properly study hESCs. Likewise, the potential of human adult of cord blood, and even animal, stem cells for understanding, treating, and curing human disease is great. Two types of applicants should consider applying for support: 1) independent junior faculty who wish to expand their research by the use of stem cells, and 2) more senior, established investigators who wish to re-direct their research, in whole or in part, to include the use of stem cells. PA-07-359 (NIHG 4/20/07) 27-8 Nutrition and Diet in the Causation, Prevention, and Management of Heart Failure (R01) (HHS)The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit investigator-initiated research applications on the role of nutrition and diet in the causation, prevention, and treatment of cardiomyopathies and heart failure. Basic, translational, and applied interdisciplinary research applications with rigorous hypothesis-testing designs for projects in animals or humans are of interest. The overall goal is to develop a satisfactory science base for preventive approaches in high-risk individuals and for rational nutritional management of patients in various stages of heart failure. PA-07-139 (NIHG 12/15/07) 27-9 Basic and Preclinical Research on Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) (R01) (NIH)This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), the National Cancer Institute (NCI), and the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), encourages complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and conventional researchers to carry out basic and/or preclinical research on CAM areas of special interest with an aim to understand the mechanisms of action of a CAM modality.
