Neonatal Research Initiative - Request for Proposals is sponsored by Little Giraffe Foundation. The Little Giraffe Foundation is offering research grants for neonatal research, directed at addressing both the long-term and immediate health needs caused by premature birth. Necrotizing enterocolitis is a serious gastrointestinal issue that affects preterm infants, making research in this area highly relevant. The foundation invites qualified scientists, doctors, and nurses at universities, hospitals, and research institutions to submit applications.

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.
