gov The National Cancer Institute (NCI), with National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) and National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to support early-career academic scientists interested in transitioning to entrepreneurship while also supporting the transfer of technology from academic laboratories into small businesses.
Both small businesses and universities are drivers of technological innovation in the United States (U.S.), often working together to advance innovative ideas into products that can benefit the U.S. population. While most NIH funding supports basic research in university laboratories, the NIH also supports innovative technology development in U.S. small businesses through its SBIR and STTR programs.
As technologies transition from academic discovery to small businesses, two common challenges arise, identifying the right team with the right expertise to take the product into a small business, and funding for early-stage technology development. This NOFO seeks to address both challenges simultaneously by having two equally important goals: entrepreneurial mentoring support, and product development support.
Applications are not being solicited at this time. Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. This NOFO will utilize the R41/R42 activity code.
The NOFO is expected to be published in Summer 2025 with an anticipated application due date in Fall 2025.

PMHCA (HRSA-26-058) makes $9.79 million available for up to 22 awards of up to $445,000 to build tele-consultation networks that help pediatric primary care providers manage children's behavioral health. The catch buried in the eligibility section: applicants must NOT already hold a PMHCA award — which effectively reserves the new-state lane for the eight unfunded states and territories, plus tribes everywhere. Here's how to read it and what wins.
