The overarching goal of this NHGRI R25 program is to support educational activities that encourage undergraduates from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical workforce, to pursue further training and careers in the scientific, medical, ethical, social and/or legal areas of genomics research. To accomplish the stated overarching goal, this FOA will support creative educational activities with a primary focus on: 1) research experiences, and 2) courses for skills development.

Minority Serving Institutions & Underserved Communities

$50K-$1M | Internal 91猎奇 Deadline: November 11, 2022 | Sponsor Deadline: January 25, 2023
This competitive grants program is intended to promote and strengthen the ability of Hispanic-Serving Institutions to carry out higher education programs in the food and agricultural sciences. Programs aim to attract outstanding students and produce graduates capable of enhancing the Nation's food and agricultural scientific and professional workforce.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math

$800K-$5M | Internal 91猎奇 Deadline: November 4, 2022 | Sponsor Deadline: March 3, 2023
The ExpandQISE program helps build and maintain a close connection between new efforts and existing impactful work done at the existing QISE Centers or leading QISE research Institutions, while creating and nurturing necessary critical mass at Institutions not yet fully involved in QISE. In keeping with the NSF goal of increasing the participation of all members of society in the scientific enterprise, institutions at which more than 50% of enrolled students come from groups that are currently under-represented in the sciences, e.g. minority-serving institutions (MSIs), are especially encouraged to apply.
