This program invites applicants to participate in a new NHLBI phenomics program, HeartShare: Next Generation Phenomics to Define Heart Failure Subtypes and Treatment Targets (hereafter referred to as “HeartShare”). The goal of this program is to conduct large-scale analysis of phenotypic data, images, and omics from patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in order to characterize mechanisms of disease and identify therapeutic targets. Up to four grants will be awarded.

The goal of this FOA is to enhance our fundamental understanding of interoception with a specific focus on dissecting and determining the function of neural circuits that connects peripheral organs/tissues with the central nervous system (CNS) via peripheral ganglia. For this FOA, interoception science includes studies of the processes by which an organism senses, interprets, integrates, and regulates signals originating from within itself. This FOA encourages projects that combine diverse expertise and use innovative approaches to delineate interoceptive mechanisms at the molecular, cellular, circuitry, functional, and/or behavioral levels.

The Advancing Informal STEM Learning (AISL) program seeks to advance new approaches to and evidence-based understanding of the design and development of STEM learning opportunities for the public in informal environments; provide multiple pathways for broadening access to and engagement in STEM learning experiences; advance innovative research on and assessment of STEM learning in informal environments; and engage the public of all ages in learning STEM in informal environments. The AISL program supports six types of projects: (1) Pilots and Feasibility Studies, (2) Research in Service to Practice, (3) Innovations in Development, (4) Broad Implementation, (5) Literature Reviews, Syntheses, or Meta-Analyses, and (6) Conferences.
The long-range goal of the Research Training Groups in the Mathematical Sciences (RTG) program is to strengthen the nation's scientific competitiveness by increasing the number of well-prepared U.S. citizens, nationals, and permanent residents who pursue careers in the mathematical sciences, be they in academia, government, or industry. The RTG program supports efforts to improve research training by involving undergraduate students, graduate students, postdoctoral associates, and faculty members in structured research groups pursuing coherent research programs. Research groups supported by RTG must include vertically-integrated activities that span the entire spectrum of educational levels from undergraduates through postdoctoral associates.
This program supports collaborative activities that will advance the understanding of nervous system structure and function, mechanisms underlying nervous system disorders, and computational strategies used by the nervous system.
NASA's Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) seeks to sponsor U.S. citizen, U.S. national and permanent resident graduate student research that has significant potential to contribute to NASA's goal of creating innovative new space technologies for our Nation's science, exploration, and economic future.
The FAA Aviation Research Grants Program encourages and supports innovative, advanced research of potential benefit to the long-term growth of civil aviation and commercial space transportation. The pursuit of basic and applied research in scientific and engineering disciplines that have the potential to further knowledge and understanding on a broad front of emerging technologies is crucial to the realization of this goal. The intent is to encourage applied research and development to enhance technology assimilation, transfer, and development in the FAA.

The Scholarly Editions and Scholarly Translations program provides grants to organizations to support collaborative teams who are editing, annotating, and translating foundational humanities texts that are vital to learning and research but are currently inaccessible or are available only in inadequate editions or translations. Typically, the texts are significant literary, philosophical, and historical materials, but other types of work, such as musical notation, may also be the subject of an edition. The program supports continuous full-time or part-time activities during the periods of performance of one to three years. Projects must be undertaken by at least two scholars working collaboratively.
The Society for the Humanities at Cornell University is inviting applications for its 2021-22 fellowship program. Through the program, up to six fellowship grants of $55,000 will be awarded to scholars for research projects focused on any aspect of the theme "afterlives." As described by the society, afterlives can be utopian projects – from heavenly lives to post-capitalist, post-work, and post-family societies – as well as strangely mundane worlds in which the flip side of catastrophe is often the quotidian task of living on and with its aftermath.
Eligibility:
To be eligible, applicants must have received their PhD before January 1, 2020, and must also have at least one year of teaching experience, which may include teaching as a graduate student.
The Center for Craft, Creativity, & Design is inviting applications for its Craft Research Fund Project Grant. Through the program, grants of up to $15,000 will be awarded in support of scholarly craft research in the United States. Proposals are welcome from academic researchers and independent scholars for research-related expenses, including travel, honoraria for contributors, salary for independent researchers, and/or support documentation such as images or rights for the use of images or text as part of the research yet to be completed. The awards are not for the printing or dissemination of already-completed research.
The Getty Foundation fulfills the philanthropic mission of the Getty Trust by supporting individuals and institutions committed to advancing the greater understanding and preservation of the visual arts in Los Angeles and around the world. To help advance this mission, the foundation welcomes applications for the Getty Scholar Grants program. Through the program, residencies at the Getty Research Institute or Getty Villa will be awarded to established scholars or writers to pursue projects free from work-related obligations. Scholars may be in residence from three to nine months. Residents will be awarded $21,500 for a three-month residency (September to December, January to April, April to June); $43,000 for a six-month residency (September to April, January to June); or $65,000 for a nine-month residency (September to June). The grant also includes an office at the Getty Research Institute or the Getty Villa, an apartment in the Getty scholar housing complex, airfare to and from Los Angeles, and available healthcare option. While in residence, scholars will have the opportunity to make use of Getty collections, join their colleagues in a weekly meeting devoted to an annual research theme, and participate in the intellectual life of the Getty.
Eligibility:
Scholars who are working in the arts, humanities, or social sciences are welcome to apply.
APS’s Franklin Research Grants program provides grants of up to $6,000 will be awarded to young scholars who have recently received their doctorate in support of the costs of travel to libraries and archives for research purposes; the purchase of microfilm, photocopies, or equivalent research materials; costs associated with fieldwork; or laboratory research expenses.
Applications are due relatively soon: by September 24 or 25, 2020, depending on track.
