Funding & Proposal Support Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Accelerating Research Innovation via AWS Sandbox Alicia Gahimer, ord@iu. edu Open through September 1, 2026 IU currently holds expiring, unallocated Amazon Web Services (AWS) credits.
To utilize this resource, Research Data Services (RDS) has developed the Research Innovation Sandbox, a controlled, low-risk computing environment where faculty can experiment with cloud-native research tools (e.g., GenAI, High-Performance Computing, Big Data analytics) without administrative or financial friction.
The AWS Innovation Sandbox The AWS Innovation Sandbox is a purpose-built AWS solution that automates the deployment of isolated, "disposable" cloud accounts. It removes the two biggest barriers to cloud adoption in research: Fear of Cost Overruns and Security Risks . This initiative utilizes IU’s existing, unused AWS cloud credits.
There is no additional budget request for the credits themselves. The AWS Innovation Sandbox solution is open-source and leverages our existing AWS Landing Zone, resulting in negligible operational costs. All full-time faculty may apply for cloud credits on the AWS Innovation Sandbox.
Application Process and Implementation Application: Researchers submit a brief request focusing on grant-funded research goals. Review: The Office for Research Development (ORD) reviews and routes request to UITS with their recommendation. Allocation: Approved projects receive a sandbox lease with a credit cap and a time limit of up to $1,000 and 90 days respectively.
(Larger credit caps can be considered for exceptional projects.) Governance: The environment is isolated from the university’s existing cloud accounts. Transition: Before completion, researchers could request a cost-and-architecture report to include in their next grant budget for a full production environment.
Applications will be taken on a rolling basis until September 1, 2026 or until the cloud credits have been used. Apply online here: https://iurds-fireform. eas.

The full ASPECT NOFO (DE-FOA-0003647) posted September 4, 2026, eleven days later than the Notice of Intent predicted. The real document splits $58 million across two topic areas with anticipated award counts of 0-7 and 0-3, a cost share that jumps from 20 percent to 50 percent mid-project, a mandatory five-page concept paper due October 9, and a university eligibility restriction that decides team structure before anyone writes a word.
Read articleThe Humana Foundation's first 2026 slate funded 13 nonprofits and five university research teams around senior and veteran emotional health, with awards from $150,000 to $3 million concentrated in Texas, Florida, and Kentucky. A second health equity slate is planned for fall 2026. Here is what the portfolio structure reveals about how this funder decides, and how aging-services and behavioral health organizations should position.
Read articleThe Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office's University Training and Research program funds coal, oil and gas, and geothermal R&D at U.S. colleges and universities — but every proposal must include a non-academic partner and must build training modules that outlive the award. The LOI deadline is October 1, 2026, with full applications 15 days later. Here is what that compressed window means and why the workforce framing changes what a competitive proposal looks like.
