, D. V. M.
, D. O. , O.
D. , PharmD, N. D.)
Postdoctoral research training for non-clinician Ph. D. scientists, including oral pathobiology training to provide an understanding of the clinical relevance of their basic science research activities, and to better prepare these scientists for independent careers in dental, oral and craniofacial research The R90 component of T90/R90 programs provides: Postdoctoral research training for non-US citizen dentists, which may lead the Ph.
D. or equivalent research degree. NIDCR will provide funds to help defray other research training expenses, such as health insurance, staff salaries, consultant costs, equipment, research supplies, and faculty/staff travel directly related to the research training program.

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.
Smart Health and Biomedical Research in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Data Science (SCH) is sponsored by National Science Foundation (NSF) & National Institutes of Health (NIH). This interagency program supports high-risk, high-reward advances in AI and data science for biomedical and public health research. Projects must cross disciplinary boundaries.
As of October 1, 2025, NIH no longer posts Notices of Funding Opportunity in the NIH Guide — Grants.gov is now the single official source (NOT-OD-25-143). The weekly Guide table-of-contents email that thousands of investigators relied on to discover funding no longer lists opportunities. Combined with the January 25, 2026 SciENcv certified-PDF requirement, the mechanics of finding and applying for NIH money have changed underneath everyone. Here is how to rebuild your discovery workflow so nothing slips through.
Read articleThe HEAL Initiative's Studies to Enable Analgesic Discovery award (RFA-NS-25-023) puts federal money exactly where private capital won't go — the assay-building, screening, and hit-characterization stage of non-opioid pain therapeutics. It's a phased R61/R33, up to $350,000 in direct costs per year, with the next application deadline September 17, 2026. Here is how the two-phase structure works, who's eligible, and how to build a proposal that survives the R61-to-R33 milestone gate.

Here is how the High-Risk, High-Reward program actually evaluates applications, who qualifies, and why the usual R01 instincts will sink you.
