MORE Faculty Development Award Program is sponsored by NIH National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS). The purpose of the MORE Faculty Development Award Program is to enhance the research and research training capabilities of the home institution by offering faculty the opportunity to update or retool their research skills through high-quality research experiences.
Candidates may also enroll in one academic course per term directly related to their research to update theoretical background. The expectation is that these new skills will enhance the research and teaching environment of the home institution.

After an authorization lapse froze new SBIR/STTR awards for five months, NIH reopens its submission window on August 5, 2026, with a first standard deadline of September 8. Phase I awards run to $323,090, Phase II to $2,153,927, with published waiver topics reaching $700,000 and $3 million — and a new Phase IIB Strategic Breakthrough lane up to $30 million. Here is how the restarted omnibus is structured, why applying early matters more than usual this cycle, and how to position a life-science startup to win.
Read articleSchmidt Sciences opened a 'Scaling AI Safety for a Multi-Agent World' program with awards up to $1 million and an August 8, 2026 deadline. Against a backdrop of federal research slowdowns, here is why private science philanthropy matters more than ever, how these funders differ from federal agencies, and how researchers should approach them.
Read articleNIH's FY2026 budget held steady at $47.2 billion — yet by the end of February the agency had issued roughly 66% fewer competitive grant awards than its FY21–24 average, and by late spring award volume was still running dramatically below historical norms.

It is a pipeline failure: only 14 Notices of Funding Opportunity published by mid-March versus 756 in all of 2024, a workforce down nearly 20%, funds held by OMB into March, and new political-appointee sign-off on NOFOs. FY25 success rates fell to 17% — the lowest in 30 years — and early-stage investigators dropped to 18.5%. This is the definitive breakdown of what is happening, why the money isn't moving, and the concrete diversification strategy labs need for the next 18 months.
