Delaware Compass Grant

The Wyoming Safety Improvement Fund supports businesses seeking to enhance safety within their organizations through training or the acquisition of health and safety equipment. Grants of up to $10,000 are available and require a 10% matching contribution from the business. Businesses must be in good standing with Wyoming Workers’ Compensation, Unemployment Insurance, and with the Wyoming Secretary of State.

Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) encourages applications promoting transformative discoveries in cancer biology and/or oncology through the use of nanotechnology. Proposed projects should address major barriers in cancer biology and/or oncology using nanotechnology and should emphasize mechanistic studies toward fundamental understanding of nanomaterial and/or nanodevice interactions with biological systems. These studies should be performed in context of research concerning the delivery of nanoparticles and/or nano-devices to desired and intended cancer targets in vivo and/or characterization of detection and diagnostic devices in vitro. IRCN awards are expected to produce fundamental knowledge to aid future and more informed development of nanotechnology-based cancer interventions. The clinical translation of these interventions is outside of the scope of this NOFO.

Vantage Ventures provides structured, direct, hands-on support to scalable early-stage startups in West Virginia through an accelerator program that helps startups test critical assumptions, create prototypes and products, gain early traction with customers, and prepare to pitch investors. Accepted applicants to the Accelerator Program will receive up to $10,000 in technical assistance funding provided by the federal government's Economic Development Agency as well as access to free co-working space in Reynolds Hall and at Ascend WV locations across the state.

The Rauschenberg Medical Emergency Grant provides funding of up to $5,000 for artists experiencing recent and unexpected medical, dental, or mental health emergencies. Eligible applicants must be artists in visual arts, choreography, or film/video/electronic/digital arts with an average income below $75,000 ($150,000 for joint filers). Grants cover out-of-pocket expenses like co-pays, emergency dental work, and transportation for treatment, but exclude chronic conditions, living expenses, or ongoing care.

The NICHD Small Research Grant Program (R03Basic Experimental Studies with HumansRequired) supports clinical trials that fall within the NICHD mission and also meet the criteria for basic science experimental studies involving humans (BESH), referred to in NOT-OD-18-212 as prospective basic science studies involving human participants. These studies fall within the NIH definition of a clinical trial and also meet the definition of basic research. Types of studies that should submit under this NOFO include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes in humans for the purpose of understanding the fundamental aspects of phenomena without specific application towards processes or products in mind.
