Funding Landscape and New Limited Submission Opportunities for the Week of January 8, 2024

Please share this information with department heads and eligible faculty.

Funding Landscape

NIH releases a request for applications to The Bridge-to-Care Initiative (R01 Clinical Trial Optional).

The purpose of the Bridge-to-Care Initiative is to advance research that leverages healthcare-community partnerships to address unmet health-related social needs among individuals and families and adverse social determinants of health within communities. Care delivery has traditionally approached a patient’s health as separate and distinct from their social context. This practice must be reimagined to make meaningful improvements in health, eliminate health disparities, and advance health equity.

NSF: National Quantum Virtual Laboratory (NQVL), Quantum Science and Technology Demonstrations (QSTD): I. Pilot Phase

Description: The National Quantum Initiative (NQI) Act aims to ensure the continuing leadership of the United States (U.S.) in quantum information science and technology. In conformance with the NQI goals, an argument was set forth for a renewed emphasis on identifying and fostering early adoption of quantum technologies to transform the field of Quantum Information Science and Engineering (QISE) and to accelerate broader impacts on society. A systematic approach to maturing quantum technology platforms by integrating end-users and potential customers from other fields of science and engineering and other sectors of the economy into cycles of research, development, and demonstration should result in lowering the barriers for end-users to pioneer new applications.
Limitation: one application per institution
