The objective of the next phase of the NeuroNex Program at the National Science Foundation is the establishment of distributed, international research networks that build on existing global investments in neurotechnologies to address overarching questions in neuroscience.
The next application deadline for the BRAIN Initiative Advanced Postdoctoral Career Transition Award to Promote Diversity (K99/R00) is June 12, 2019 (resubmission deadline is July 12, 2019).
Three new receipt dates have been added to this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO): November 6, 2019; July 1, 2020; and November 10, 2020.
NIH announces two newly-issued Requests for Applications (RFAs). The first RFA seeks to expand existing marmoset colonies for neuroscience research. The second RFA aims to create a Marmoset Coordination Center. Application receipt dates are in October 2019 for both RFAs.
Two new and four re-issued notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) target development of next-generation human cell-derived assays, secondary analysis and archiving of data, next-generation human brain imaging, improved resolution for non-invasive neuromodulation, and tools for high-throughput microconnectivity analysis.
A recently issued BRAIN notice of funding opportunity (RFA-MH-20-140) targets development and validation of advanced human cell-based assays to model brain structure and function. Potential applicants may appreciate clarity on how the HHS policy on research involving human fetal tissue obtained from elective abortions may affect proposed research.
The next application deadline for the BRAIN Initiative Advanced Postdoctoral Career Transition Award to Promote Diversity (K99/R00) is February 10, 2020 (resubmission deadline is March 10, 2020).
This week, a series of daily blog posts will highlight 28 new and reissued BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for 2020. For the past five years BRAIN-funded scientists have developed astounding new technologies to study neural circuits, enabling a better understanding of the brain and complex disorders. Next year’s awards will accelerate the pace of neuroscience discovery by building upon this work and expanding the scope of the BRAIN Initiative. Today’s post focuses on data science, training, neuroethics, and small business opportunities.
This week, a series of daily blog posts will highlight 28 new and reissued BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for 2020. Today’s post highlights four awards that support the use of integrative, novel methods to elucidate neural circuits. The goal of these NOFOs is to enhance our understanding of neural circuitry by funding individual and collaborative brain circuit projects.
This week, a series of daily blog posts will highlight 28 new and reissued BRAIN Initiative notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) for 2020. The five awards featured today focus on brain mapping and tool development. The goal of these NOFOs is to accelerate brain cell census research and promote the development, validation, and use of novel tools designed to study cell types and circuits.
