National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH (NCI) award funds revision applications to clinically validate biomarker assays that were originally developed through existing NIH-supported research grants, meaning applicants generally need an active or prior NCI-supported assay to revise. Eligible applicants include higher-education institutions, nonprofits, tribal governments, and federal agencies; clinical trials are not allowed and early-stage technology development is out of scope. Because it builds on prior NIH funding, eligibility is effectively narrow. No specific award amount is stated in this record.

U.S. National Science Foundation · Amount varies

This NSF Mathematical Biology program supports research across the mathematical sciences with relevance to biology, requiring strong integration of mathematical innovation and biological significance. Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any standard NSF entity type) subject to clarification in the NOFO, so a broad range of research organizations such as universities may apply; in practice proposals are typically led by institutions of higher education. The program also supports conferences and special proposal types (EAGER, RAPID, RUI). No specific award amount is stated in this record.

Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity - DHACA · Amount varies

This Department of War (Defense Health Agency) Melanoma Research Program Melanoma Academy Scholar Award supports independent early-career investigators who are no more than seven years from their first faculty appointment, funding both their melanoma research and career development within a virtual mentoring academy; each scholar must designate an experienced Career Guide. Because it targets early-career faculty scholars, eligibility is narrow at the individual level even though the entity types are unrestricted (subject to clarification in the program announcement). Preliminary data are not required. No specific award amount is stated in this record.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH (NCI) K99/R00 is a career-transition award for early-stage postdoctoral cancer researchers moving toward independent faculty positions; in this version the candidate may not lead an independent clinical trial (companion NOFOs cover those who will). It is applied for through a host institution such as a university, so eligibility centers on higher-education and research institutions rather than individuals on their own. Foreign institutions and the foreign components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply, though some foreign components are allowed. No award ceiling is stated in this record.

National Institutes of Health · Up to $500K

This NIH (NIGMS) R25 supports organizations developing educational and skills-training programs for the biomedical research workforce, with activities open to the broader research community and spanning career stages from undergraduates to faculty and staff scientists. Eligible applicants include higher-education institutions, nonprofits, tribal governments, faith- or community-based organizations, and federal agencies; independent clinical trials are not allowed. Foreign organizations and the foreign components of U.S. organizations are not eligible, and foreign components are not allowed. Stated funding is up to about $500,000.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH K99/R00 award funds early-stage postdoctoral researchers transitioning to independent, tenure-track faculty positions, with an emphasis on cancer control, prevention, and data science. This specific NOFO is for those planning to lead an independent clinical trial as part of their career development; non-clinical-trial applicants must use a separate companion NOFO. It's aimed at eligible U.S. institutions, and the deadline is October 14, 2026.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH (NICHD) R36 dissertation grant supports individual doctoral candidates completing dissertation research in high-priority child health areas using data from the ECHO Cohort, a de-identified longitudinal dataset of more than 71,000 participants. Because it is a dissertation award, it is narrowly aimed at doctoral students (working through their institutions) in relevant scientific fields, not the general public or organizations broadly. Foreign organizations, the foreign components of U.S. organizations, and foreign components are not eligible or allowed. No specific award amount is stated; see the NOFO for full eligibility details.

Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity - DHACA · Amount varies

This Department of War (Defense Health Agency) Traumatic Brain Injury and Psychological Health Translational Research Award funds research that converts scientific findings into clinical applications for TBI and psychological health; basic research and clinical trials are prohibited and preliminary data are required. Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any standard entity type), subject to clarification in the program announcement. For prospective human-subjects research, community-based participatory research approaches are required. An early-career investigator partnering option is available. No specific award amount is stated.
