"NEI Collaborative Clinical Vision Research Project: Resource Center Grant (UG1 Clinical Trial Required)" is currently closed and not accepting applications.
The NEI uses UG1 cooperative agreement awards to support investigator-initiated large-scale clinical trials, human gene-transfer, stem cell therapy trials, and other complex or high resource- or safety-risk clinical trials. These projects are multifaceted and of high public health significance requiring clear delineation of study organization including roles and responsibilities and require careful performance oversight and monitoring. For purposes of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), the proposed study must be intended to evaluate interventions aimed at screening, diagnosing, preventing, or treating vision disorders, or to compare the effectiveness of two or more established interventions. The NEI UG1-supported studies are typically funded as a group of single-component companion grant awards including the Chairs Grant, the Coordinating Center, and Resource Centers, when appropriate. Specifically, this NOFO encourages applications for the Resource Center grant which provides imaging, laboratory, or other requisite services for a multi-center clinical trial or other complex or high-risk clinical trial.
Funding Opportunity Number: PAR-23-201. Assistance Listing: 93.867. Funding Instrument: CA. Category: HL.

NCI Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences (CURE) Academic Career Excellence (ACE) Award (K32) is a grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) that funds early postdoctoral fellows from diverse backgrounds, including underrepresented groups, to pursue research training in cancer-related fields. The K32 award supports fellows within 12 months prior to transitioning into, or within the first two years of, a postdoctoral position. The program, operated through NCI's Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD), aims to enhance the pool of qualified diverse cancer researchers. Beginning with the June 12, 2025 due date, the CURE ACE Award is available in both Independent Clinical Trial Required and Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed versions. Eligible applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents at time of award.
Innovation Grant is a grant from the Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation that funds nonprofit organizations pursuing unique, high-impact projects that improve health and wellness in Arizona communities. This two-year award supports original initiatives with measurable real-world impact, including programs serving underserved and uninsured populations through oral health education, disease prevention, and nutritional access. Projects must demonstrate the potential to make a meaningful difference in the community and stand apart from conventional approaches. Eligible applicants are Arizona-based nonprofit organizations. Awards total $100,000 per recipient over two years. The 2026 application cycle closed October 16, 2025, with recipients notified in late 2025 and funding made available shortly after.
After a rare gap with zero active omnibus NOFOs, NIH has reissued its SBIR/STTR parent announcements — collapsing four solicitations into two, adding a Strategic Breakthrough bridge and a Commercialization Readiness Pilot, and reopening the funnel with a September 5, 2026 receipt date. Here are the exact solicitation numbers, the new budget ceilings, what actually changed, and how a small business should sequence its submission.
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. The cause is not a budget cut. 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.
Read articleAfter 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.
