The NIBIB Trailblazer Award (R21) supports new and early-stage investigators pursuing research at the interface of engineering, physical sciences, and biomedical sciences, with a strong emphasis on AI/ML applications in biomedical imaging and data analysis. The award provides up to $400,000 in direct costs over a three-year period.
Priority research areas include AI-powered clinical decision support systems, computer-aided diagnosis and screening, natural language processing for medical records, predictive modeling for patient outcomes, radiomics and image segmentation, and early-stage software and tool development.
The program is designed to lower barriers for investigators who may lack preliminary data by using an R21 mechanism that supports exploratory and developmental research. NIBIB's AI/ML program supports the design and development of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning to enhance analysis of complex medical images and data.

EPAs SmartWay Transport Partnership and National Clean Diesel Campaign (NCDC) are announcing the availability of funding assistance to create finance programs, such as low cost leases or revolving loan programs, to achieve significant reductions in diesel emissions throughout the United States. The SmartWay Clean Diesel Finance Program is soliciting proposals for projects that reduce diesel emissions through the creation of national, tribal, regional, state or local finance program(s). Finance programs include, but are not limited to, those that provide the loan recipient a specific financial incentive (i.e., longer terms or lower rates) to purchase or lease eligible retrofitted vehicles or equipment. The proposed finance program should maximize the total project funds available for financing eligible diesel emission reduction solutions and be sustainable to maintain the program. Funding Opportunity Number: EPA-OAR-OTAQ-09-13. Assistance Listing: 66.039. Funding Instrument: CA. Category: ENV. Award Amount: $2M – $12M per award.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soliciting applications from eligible applicants for the National Estuary Program (NEP) Watersheds Grant to support projects that address urgent, emerging, and challenging issues that threaten the ecological and economic well-being of estuarine areas. Funding Opportunity Number: EPA-OW-OWOW-21-03. Assistance Listing: 66.456. Funding Instrument: CA. Category: ENV. Award Amount: Up to $18M per award.
The FY2026 Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program supports basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education, with emphasis on multidisciplinary research where more than one traditional discipline interacts. The Army, Navy, and Air Force basic research offices are seeking applications across 22 topic areas including artificial intelligence and autonomy, information sensing and processing, and systems manipulation. MURI grants typically provide $1.25 million to $1.5 million per year for three years with option to extend two additional years. Approximately $170 million in total funding is available annually across all topics. The program is administered through the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Army Research Office (ARO), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR).
The April 14 SBIR/STTR reauthorization restarted NIH's small-business pipeline after the shutdown, but the real signal is the sequencing of the new Small Business 101 webinars: program overview June 9, budget July 14, foreign risk August 18.
Read articleNIH's accelerating use of multiyear-funded grants — 601 awards worth $402 million in the first half of FY26, against just 146 awards worth $75 million in the same window of FY24 — has produced a fiscal contraction at research universities that has begun cascading into PhD admissions. AAU member institutions are admitting smaller graduate cohorts than they did in 2024 or 2025, with downstream consequences for the biomedical workforce, lab continuity, and the foreign-student pipeline through 2030. Why the contraction is structural rather than cyclical, and what universities, PIs, and prospective trainees should be doing in the second half of 2026.
