Not all federal agencies have specific pages for nanotechnology funding opportunities. In addition, solicitations often are worded generally and the technological tools to be employed, whether micro-, nano- or macro-scale, are not specified. Looking broadly into areas of interest—for instance, toxin removal or semi-conducting materials — is often the best approach. You can now use a solicitation database offered by the DOE Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies to learn about opportunities for nanoscience research funding by Federal agencies.

The Research Infrastructure Improvement (RII) grant is being matched by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education with an additional $3 million. These funds will contribute to Oklahoma's scientific community by providing equipment and human resources needed to boost research competitiveness. According to Dr. Frank Waxman, Oklahoma EPSCoR Director, "The RII award will help continue the momentum that Oklahoma scientists have gained in genomics and nanosciences...and is helping develop a critical mass of researchers in the state while stepping up the next level of competitiveness." Grants and Contracts Available Through National Institutes of Health (NIH): You may also visit the NIH website at http://grants.nih.gov/ Biobehavioral Methods to Improve Outcomes Research Summary: This initiative is designed to foster biobehavioral research and develop innovative research designs, methods of measurement, and data analysis techniques. Designs and methods that examine the impact of biologic and behavioral variables on individuals' health outcomes and quality of life are encouraged. Scientists are encouraged to increase the interface of biobehavioral research and clinical practice in existing core and exploratory centers and training programs by sharing findings and designing collaborative research projects. Ideally, interdisciplinary researchers should overcome differences in perspectives, incentives, and methods by going beyond usual collaborations to engage others to solve problems creatively and efficiently. This funding opportunity will use the R01 and R21 award mechanisms. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism, numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. Applications may be submitted by any individual with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research.
Eligible domestic and foreign institutions/organizations include for-profit or non-profit, public or private, and faith-based or community-based organizations, units of State Tribal government, units of Local Tribal government, units of State and Local governments, and eligible agencies of the Federal government More Info Multidisciplinary Research On Oral Manifestations Associated With HIV/AIDS Summary:
MANUFACTURING PROCESSES OF MEDICAL, DENTAL, AND BIOLOGICAL TECHNOLOGIES (SBIR/STTR) Summary: The NIH, CDC, and FDA encourage research related to advanced processing in the manufacture of biomedical products and the implementation of new technologies in medical care. New methods, procedures, measures, and controls are needed for manufacturing a broad range of technologies and products with unsurpassed quality and to lower manufacturing costs for existing and/or new processes. Research is also encouraged that can contribute to the containment and reduction of health care costs and that can improve the cost effectiveness, quality, and accessibility of the health care system. BIOENGINEERING APPROACHES TO ENERGY BALANCE AND OBESITY (SBIR/STTR) Summary: The purpose of this PA is to solicit applications to develop and validate new and innovative bioengineering technology to address clinical problems related to energy balance, intake, and expenditure. Novel sensors, devices, imaging, and other approaches are expected to be developed and evaluated by collaborating engineers, physical scientists, and scientists from other relevant disciplines with expertise in obesity and nutrition. The goal is to increase the number of useful technologies and tools available to scientists to facilitate their research in energy balance and health. Eventually these research tools should facilitate therapeutic advances and behavioral changes to address such problems as weight control and obesity. More Info HIGH THROUGHPUT TOOLS FOR BRAIN AND BEHAVIOR: SBIR Summary: Analytic tools that can screen for particular characteristics at high rates are crucial to discovery science, and increasingly valuable in both basic research (e.g., phenotyping) and applied research (e.g., drug discovery). As such, they are in demand and represent a commercially viable technology, appropriate for funding under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. The intent of this Program Announcement (PA) is to invite applications by small businesses for the commercial development of technologies for high throughput data acquisition and analysis that could aid the research fields of basic behavioral science or neuroscience relevant to the mission of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). Only SBIR Phase I, Phase II and Fast Track grant applications are solicited; small business technology transfer (STTR) grant applications are not solicited by this PA.
