National Institutes of Health · $50K–$600K

This NIH (NCI) U24 cooperative agreement funds advanced development and enhancement of emerging cancer informatics technologies that have passed initial prototyping but are not yet widely adopted; clinical trials are optional. It targets teams with a promising informatics tool ready for further development and broader impact, so eligibility is effectively oriented toward established research/informatics groups. Foreign organizations and the foreign components of U.S. organizations are eligible to apply, and foreign components are allowed. Awards range from about $50,000 to $600,000.

National Institutes of Health · Amount varies

This NIH U01 cooperative agreement funds a single Community Engagement Evaluation and Data coordination (CEED) hub to support a community-based participatory research consortium focused on oral health, coordinating data planning, community engagement evaluation, and operational support. Clinical trials are not allowed, and as a cooperative agreement NIH staff are substantially involved. This is a narrow, single-hub coordination role rather than a broad research grant. Foreign organizations, the foreign components of U.S. organizations, and foreign components are not eligible or allowed; see the NOFO for full eligibility details. No award amount is stated.

Environmental Protection · Up to $75K

U.S. National Science Foundation · Amount varies

This NSF program (HBCU Excellence in Research) is restricted to accredited Historically Black Colleges and Universities that have faculty conducting research in science, engineering, or STEM education. The PI must be a full-time faculty member or researcher at the submitting HBCU, so no other organization type is eligible. It aims to build research capacity at HBCUs, particularly those less successful in larger NSF competitions. No specific award amount is stated in this record.

Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development · $50K–$500K

The Quantum FAST Challenge, run by California's Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, funds two kinds of projects: education/workforce development to build a quantum-technology talent pipeline, and applied use-case demonstrations pairing researchers and students with industry partners. Listed eligible applicant types are 'Other Legal Entity' and 'Public Agency' — standard nonprofit and small-business categories aren't explicitly named, so organizations outside government or an established legal-entity structure should confirm fit with the funder before applying. Awards range from $50,000 to $500,000, with applications due 2026-10-20.

Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity - DHACA · Amount varies

U.S. National Science Foundation · From $190K

These NSF Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are awarded to individuals, who submit proposals directly to NSF rather than through an institution, though fellows must affiliate with a host institution. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, nationals, or permanent residents, have a doctoral degree (conferred no more than two years before January 1 of the award year), propose research in mathematics or statistics, and not have previously held most NSF awards. Eligibility is therefore narrow and individual-specific. Stated funding is around $190,000.
