ALL OPEN RFAs
Global Health Reciprocal Innovation Planning Award
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Planning Grant applications are accepted year-round while funds are available
The goal of this request for applications (RFA) is to facilitate the planning and designing of reciprocal innovation projects focusing on one of the identified priority areas: non-communicable diseases, including cancer, diabetes and hypertension; infant and maternal health; infectious diseases especially HIV, malaria, and COVID-19; mental health; and access to quality healthcare. Activities in this RFA will be implemented through principal investigators from Indiana CTSI institutions (IU, Purdue, and Notre Dame) and collaborative partnerships between Indiana state health partners, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, health systems, government agencies, and partners from low- or middle-income countries (LMIC). The planning efforts must demonstrate an understanding of shared health challenges in underserved communities in Indiana and LMIC partner sites, a plan to develop high-impact solutions that provide reciprocal benefit to Indiana and the LMIC partner, as well as a commitment to the development of new programs or partnerships that will result in the development and demonstration of reciprocal innovation projects.
This award is designed to provide preliminary support for investigators to establish partnerships, develop project teams, identify promising health innovations for demonstration, develop evidence to support the demonstration of a reciprocal innovation in Indiana or at an LMIC partner site, conduct training to prepare for a reciprocal innovation demonstration project, and other activities needed to prepare competitive demonstration grant applications for reciprocal innovation.
Applicants may request up to $10,000 for a period of 1 year.
University of Notre Dame Matching Funds: University of Notre Dame Eck Institute for Global Health will provide up to $10,000 matching funds for successful Notre Dame faculty and affiliated members of the Eck Institute for Global Health. Researchers who meet this criterion may submit a budget inclusive of this additional funding. For questions on eligibility, please contact Nydia Morales-Soto (nsoto@nd.edu).

A primary research-related activity of the Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases (CDMD)’s Pilot and Feasibility (P&F) program is to foster the development of new diabetes-related investigators and provide seed-support for innovative, high-risk projects.
The CDMD P&F program has two different grant mechanisms:
The program is directed at:Category 1: New investigators without current or past NIH research support as a PD/PI with any current or past support from other sources being modest
Category 2: Established investigators with no previous work in diabetes who wish to apply their expertise to a problem in diabetes research
Category 3: Established investigators in diabetes who propose testing innovative ideas that represent clear departure from ongoing research interests
Category 4: Investigators developing new research techniques/technologies that could be used in an IDRC Core facility
Note that all categories, including Category 4, can apply for either a full or a core P&F grant.
For 2021, the program has two special invitations:
Physician-Scientist Full P&F Grants This mechanism invites applications from exceptional emerging physician-scientists holding an MD (or equivalent) or MD/PhD with a patient-oriented clinical research project, who are early in their clinical research careers and show great promise to develop into future independent investigators.
Awards may not exceed $50,000 for a Full P&F Grant, or $5,000 for a Core P&F Grant.

Pilot Funding for Research Use of Core Facilities (Spring)
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: March 29, 2021
The Indiana CTSI Pilot Funding program is intended to promote the use of technologies and expertise afforded by the Indiana CTSI Core Facilities available at all partner institutions. Successful proposals will demonstrate outstanding scientific merit that can be linked to generating extramural funding or novel intellectual property (IP). Success of the program will be viewed, in part, by the fostering of new funded grants or providing significant contributions to grant renewals. Therefore, proposals will be judged with equal measure on scientific merit and the likelihood of generating new IP or extramural grant support.
Funding is for a maximum requested amount of $10,000; projects are typically two years in duration.
Funding is for utilization of designated Indiana CTSI core facilities only. Information describing each core is available at https://indianactsi.org/servicecores/
A letter from each Core Director where service is required and must be included in the application.

Translational Public Health Research Award
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: April 8, 2021
The goal of the Indiana University School of Public Health - Bloomington is to provide a more holistic model for the field of public health so that the individual, social, environmental and policy factors that support optimal health and wellness have a viable framework from which to approach the current human health conditions. Applications may focus on any aspect of public health but ultimately lead to the improvement of human health outcomes. These applications require a partnership between an IUB faculty member and a public health liaison and / or collaborator at another Indiana CTSI partner institution. PIs are strongly encouraged to include other Indiana CTSI affiliate faculty but this not a requirement. Collaborations need not be established prior to submission but should demonstrate the equal contribution of each team member and how synergism will be achieved.
Applications are expected to have a maximum requested amount of $50,000/year for two years for a total of $100,000.
