NIH issues a request for applications for the Safety and Early Efficacy Studies of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy for Chronic Pain in Older Adults (UG3/UH3 Clinical Trial Required) Program
This NOFO invites applications to support a clinical trials network involving multiple institutions to collect safety and early efficacy data of psychedelic-assisted therapy (PAT) in defined groups of older adults living with specific chronic pain conditions. This NOFO uses the Exploratory/Developmental Phased Award Cooperative Agreement activity code UG3/UH3. Applications must include a research plan describing both UG3 and UH3 phases. For the purposes of this NOFO, the term psychedelic includes “classic” psychedelics, typically understood to be 5-HT2 agonists such as psilocybin, N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), and mescaline, as well as entactogens or empathogens such as methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA). Synthetic analogs of these agents are also included. Cannabis, ketamine, and their related products are not considered psychedelic agents in this NOFO.

NEH issues a call for Humanities Collections and Reference Resources Program (HCRR)
HCRR advances scholarship, education, and public engagement in the humanities by helping libraries, archives, museums, and historical organizations across the country steward important collections of books and manuscripts, photographs, sound recordings and moving images, archaeological and ethnographic artifacts, art and material culture, and digital objects. The program strengthens efforts to make the content of such materials accessible through digitization and description. Awards also support the creation of reference resources that facilitate the use of cultural materials, from works that provide basic information quickly to tools that synthesize and codify knowledge of a subject for in-depth investigation. Deadline is July 16.
