Neuroscience Grants and Funding

This week, we will highlight BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for fiscal year 2022. Today’s post summarizes NOFOs for neural recording, modulation, and stimulation tool development in animals and humans.

This week, we will highlight BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for fiscal year 2022. Today’s post features NOFOs for establishing reagent production facilities and tool development and dissemination.

The NOFOs below aim to advance our ability to study specific cell types and circuits by developing, validating, and disseminating cutting-edge technologies to the broader neuroscience community. 

This week, we will highlight BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for fiscal year 2022. This post features funding opportunities to develop, test, and utilize next-gen neural devices to advance our knowledge about the brain.

Today’s post highlights a new notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) that supports short courses for skills development that will significantly advance the educational goals of the BRAIN Initiative.

RFA-EY-21-003 BRAIN Initiative-Related Research Education: Short Courses (R25 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The NIH BRAIN Initiative is hosting an informational webinar to discuss the aims and features of the Research Resource Grants for Technology Integration and Dissemination (RFA-NS-22-011).  

The notice encourages BRAIN applicants to apply to the NIH Blueprint MedTech program’s funding opportunities aimed at accelerating the translation of early stage neurotechnologies to first-in-human studies.  

Please join us for two virtual NIH BRAIN Initiative meetings next Monday and Tuesday. Videocast will be available for the open meeting sessions.

Neuroethics Working Group Meeting – Monday, January 24, 2022

The initial phase of the competition aims to attract eligible participants to submit innovative proposals on target neuromodulation therapies.

Two NOFOs that fall under the umbrella of the BRAIN Understanding Circuits program are being re-issued with a new PEDP requirement. 

NIH issues Request for Information on Genomic Data Sharing Policy update by February 28th, 2022, as it strives to maintain balance between confidentiality and maximizing scientific advances from human genomic data.
