Title: Diet-Induced Changes in Inflammation as Determinants of Colon Cancer (R21)

Brief Description: The National Cancer Institute (NCI) encourages the submission of grant applications focusing on research projects that deal with the identification and characterization of diet-induced changes in inflammation linked to colon cancer risks. This program is designed to stimulate research efforts that will lead to the identification and characterization of: (1) diet-induced changes in anti - and pro-inflammatory mediators that modulate colon cancer risks; (2) genetic polymorphisms that modify the responses to specific bioactive food components with regard to colon cancer inhibition; and (3) the physiological effectiveness of dietary components in terms of concentration, activity, duration of exposure, degrees of stability, chemical forms, and receptor-binding affinity in inflammatory colonocytes. The NCI will not support applications that propose epidemiological studies based on diet-related risks of colon cancer.

Proposed Funding: The estimated total program ceiling amount is $200,000.00.

Agency Deadline: September 7, 2011

Title: Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research

Brief Description: -The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) hereby notify Principal Investigators holding specific types of NIH research grants, listed in the full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) that funds are available for administrative supplements to improve the diversity of the research workforce by supporting and recruiting students, postdoctorates, and eligible investigators from groups that have been shown to be underrepresented. Although the administrative supplements supported under this program provide funding for less than one percent of all individuals involved in NIH supported research, the NIH has found these awards to be an effective means of encouraging institutions to recruit from currently underrepresented groups. Administrative supplements must support work within the scope of the original project. -All NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs), the NIH Common Fund, and the National Institute for Occupational Safety (NIOSH, CDC) participate in this program. Candidates eligible for support under this supplement program include individuals at various career levels who come from groups that have been shown to be underrepresented in science. Such candidates include individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, individuals with disabilities, and individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Proposed Funding: $60,000,000
