Developmental and Learning Sciences Brief
Description: DLS supports fundamental research that increases
our understanding of cognitive, linguistic, social, cultural, and
biological processes related to children's and adolescents' development
and learning. Research supported by this program will add to our
basic knowledge of how people learn and the underlying developmental
processes that support learning, with the objective of leading to
better educated children and adolescents who grow up to take productive
roles as workers and as citizens. Among the many research topics
supported by DLS are: developmental cognitive neuroscience; development
of higher-order cognitive processes; transfer of knowledge from
one domain or situation to another; use of molecular genetics to
study continuities and discontinuities in development; development
of peer relations and family interactions; multiple influences on
development, including the impact of family, school, community,
social institutions, and the media; adolescents’ preparation
for entry into the workforce; cross-cultural research on development
and learning; and the role of cultural influences and demographic
characteristics on development. Additional priorities include research
that: incorporates multidisciplinary, multi-method, microgenetic,
and longitudinal approaches; develops new methods, models, and theories
for studying learning and development; and integrates different
processes (e.g., learning, memory, emotion), levels of analysis
(e.g., behavioral, social, neural), and time scales (e.g. infancy,
middle childhood, adolescence). This program supports Integrative
Research Activities for Developmental Science (IRADS). The program
currently is at its capacity for supporting such large-scale awards,
and is therefore not considering new IRADS proposals at this point
in time. The program is accepting proposals for individual investigator
projects (average total budget of approximately $100,000 per year)
and workshops/ small conferences (average total one-time budget
of approximately $15,000).

including but not limited to mental health services research, AIDS,
genetics, psychopathology, stigma, and cultural and social processes.
This initiative should be used when two or more sites are needed
to complete the study. The collaborating studies share a specific
protocol across the sites and are organized as such in order to
increase sample size, accelerate recruitment, or increase sample
diversity and representation. In studies with a large number of
sites, it is expected that one site will be submitted as coordinating
site for data management and/or other centralized administration.
This initiative also supports projects involving collaboration between
community-based organizations such as consumer or advocacy groups,
state or local governments, and Tribal governments with universities
and colleges. This program will use the NIH R01 award mechanism. Proposed Funding: This program will use the NIH R01 award mechanism. 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. F&A costs requested by consortium participants are not included in the direct cost limitation. Agency

Number: Brief Description: The sponsor supports organizations that address human needs in disadvantaged communities, with strong emphasis on organizations that include service, advocacy and empowerment in their approach, with particular interest in efforts that combine two or all three of these elements. The sponsor provides both general support and project-specific grants. Although most grants cover a period of one year, the sponsor accepts requests for funding renewals and also makes multi-year grants. Proposed Funding: The sponsor's average grant is $45,163. All requests should be relative to the budget and needs of the organization applying; however, it would be unusual for the sponsor to make a very large (over $50,000) grant to an organization it has not worked with before. It is also unlikely that a first-time grant would exceed half of the proposed budget.
