Mentored Quantitative Research Development Award (Parent K25 - Clinical Trial Required)
Funding Opportunity PA-18-395 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of the Mentored Quantitative Research Career Development Award (K25) is to attract to NIH-relevant research those investigators whose quantitative science and engineering research has thus far not been focused primarily on questions of health and disease. The K25 award will provide support and "protected time" for a period of supervised study and research for productive professionals with quantitative (e.g., mathematics, statistics, economics, computer science, imaging science, informatics, physics, chemistry) and engineering backgrou...

Administrative supplements for validation studies of analytical methods for dietary supplements and natural products (Admin. Suppl.)
Funding Opportunity PA-17-447 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The reproducibility and comparability of dietary supplement research is enhanced through rigorous analytical characterization of key experimental materials. The publication of analytical methods which have been thoroughly validated for specific, precise, accurate, and sensitive quantitative determination of chemical constituents of dietary supplements therefore makes critical contributions to the rigor and reproducibility of biomedical research. This FOA will build on existing NIH awards to support the performance and publication of formal single...
