The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to support innovative research that will develop and apply computational tools and methods for modeling interactions between infectious agents and their hosts, disease spread, prediction systems and response strategies. The models should be useful to researchers, policymakers, or public health workers who want to better understand and respond to infectious diseases.
The NIH Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions (SPARC) program seeks to advance understanding of the neural control of organ function, laying a mechanistic foundation for the next generation of therapeutic closed-loop neuromodulation devices.
The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), in partnership with the National Institute on Aging (NIA), announces an opportunity for NIBIB-supported investigators to request administrative supplements to develop new tools, technologies and approaches for the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and understanding of Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's-disease-related dementias (AD/ADRD). These supplements will be funded by NIA as part of the NIA strategic plan to support the development of innovative strategies to prevent, diagnose and treat AD/ADRD.

The purpose of the announcement is to invite applications from applicants who have an interest in performing high impact, cutting-edge scientific and computing activities necessary to establish an NIH Data Commons. The goal of the NIH Data Commons is to accelerate new biomedical discoveries by providing a cloud-based platform where investigators can store, share, access, and compute on digital objects (data, software, etc.) generated from biomedical research and perform novel scientific research including hypothesis generation, discovery, and validation.

The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) will host a Proposers’ Day Conference for the FOCUS program on October 19, 2017 in anticipation of the release of a new solicitation. The Conference will be held from 9 AM to 3 PM EDT in the Washington, DC metropolitan area.
The Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS) at the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) plan to support research in mathematics and statistics on questions in the biological and biomedical sciences. Both agencies recognize the need for promoting research at the interface between the mathematical sciences and the life sciences. This program is designed to encourage new collaborations, as well as to support existing ones
The Collaborative Research in Computational Neuroscience (CRCNS) participating agencies are pleased to announce the release of the program solicitation for 2018 through 2020 (NSF 18-501), now available at http://www.nsf.gov/crcns/.
The next proposal deadline will be JANUARY 5, 2018.
Two classes of proposals will be considered in response to this solicitation:
* RESEARCH PROPOSALS describing collaborative research projects, and
* DATA SHARING PROPOSALS to enable sharing of data and other resources.
