NIMHD Comprehensive Centers of Excellence (P60) is a grant from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD/NIH) that funds multi-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary research centers dedicated to promoting minority health and reducing health disparities. Awards range from $3 million to $6 million and support innovative research, training, and education activities to develop well-trained researchers from minority and health-disparity populations. Each Center of Excellence focuses on a specific theme with direct impact on addressing minority health disparities, which may include disease areas disproportionately affecting underserved populations or cross-cutting prevention topics. The program also supports community engagement activities aimed at sustainably improving health outcomes in minority communities. Funded centers include institutions such as Johns Hopkins University, Duke University, and Arizona State University.

Michelson Prizes: Next Generation Grants is a grant from Human Immunome Project and Michelson Medical Research Foundation that awards $150,000 annually to early-career investigators advancing human immunology, vaccine discovery, and immunotherapy research for major global diseases. The prizes recognize scientists working across disciplines including molecular biology, computational biology, biophysics, bioengineering, AI/machine learning, and nanotechnology. Past awardees have held positions at institutions such as Harvard Medical School, MIT, Scripps Research, and the Rockefeller University. Applications for the 2025 prize cycle were accepted from April 1 through June 22, 2025. The program is open to researchers at multiple career stages, including postdoctoral fellows and assistant professors.
