7-2 Enhancing Access to the Radio
Spectrum (NSF)
The National Science Foundation’s
Directorates for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (MPS), Engineering (ENG),
Computer and Information Science and
Engineering (CISE), and Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) are
coordinating efforts to identify bold new
concepts with the potential to contribute
to significant improvements in the efficiency of radio spectrum utilization, and
in the ability for traditionally underserved Americans to benefit from current
and future wireless-enabled goods and
services. EARS seeks to fund innovative
collaborative research that transcends the
traditional boundaries of existing programs, such as research that spans disciplines covered by two or more of the
participating NSF directorates. NSF 13539 (GG 2/13/13)

Challenge Grants (NEH)
NEH challenge grants are capacity-building grants, intended to help institutions
and organizations secure long-term
improvements in and support for their
humanities programs and resources.
Grants may be used to establish or
enhance endowments or spend-down
funds that generate expendable earnings
to support and enhance ongoing program
activities. Challenge grants may also provide capital directly supporting the procurement of long-lasting objects, such as
acquisitions for archives and collections,
the purchase of equipment, and the construction or renovation of facilities
needed for humanities activities. Funds
spent directly must be shown to bring
long-term benefits to the institution and to
the humanities more broadly. 2013050CH (GG 2/19/13)

the activities of the Center throughout the
fellowship period. Lectures, colloquia,
and informal discussions complement the
fellowship program. Each visiting senior
fellow is provided with a study. In addition, visiting senior fellows who relocate
to Washington are provided with housing
in apartments near the Gallery, subject to
availability. Visiting senior fellows have
access to the notable resources represented by the collections, the library, and
the image collections of the National Gallery of Art, as well as to the Library of
Congress and other specialized research
libraries and collections in the Washington area. Paul Mellon and Ailsa Mellon

7-7 Research Interests of the Air
Force Office of Scientific Research
(AFOSR)
The Air Force Office of Scientific
Research (AFOSR) manages the basic
research investment for the U.S. Air
Force (USAF). As a part of the Air Force
Research Laboratory (AFRL), AFOSR’s
technical experts foster and fund research
within the Air Force Research Laboratory,
universities, and industry laboratories to
ensure the transition of research results to
support USAF needs. The focus of
AFOSR is on research areas that offer significant and comprehensive benefits to
our national warfighting and peacekeeping capabilities. These areas are organized
and managed in five scientific directorates: Dynamical Systems and Control
(RTA), Quantum & Non-Equilibrium Processes (RTB), Information, Decision, and
Complex Networks (RTC), Complex
Materials and Devices (RTD), and
Energy, Power, and Propulsion (RTE).

and Weight Outcomes (R01) (NIH)
Campus Program (DOJ)
This Funding Opportunity Announcement
(FOA) encourages Research Project
Grant (R01) applications that propose to:
1) foster multidisciplinary research that
will evaluate how policies (federal, state
and school district levels) can influence
school physical activity and nutrition
environments, youths’ obesogenic behaviors (e.g., nutrition and physical activity
behaviors), and weight outcomes; 2)
understand how schools are implementing
these policies and examine multi-level
influences on adoption and implementation at various levels (e.g., federal, state,
school district, and school); and 3) understand the synergistic or counteractive
effect of school nutrition and physical
activity polices on the home and community environment and body weight. Companion funding opportunities are PA-13099, R03 Small Grant Program; PA-13098, R21 Exploratory/Developmental

Sexual assault, domestic violence, dating
violence, and stalking are serious problems on college and university campuses.
The Campus Program provides seed funding to support activities that develop and
strengthen victim services in cases
involving sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking on
campuses. The Campus Program also
aims to strengthen security and investigative strategies to prevent and prosecute
these crimes on campuses. Campuses are
addressing these crimes by developing
campus-based coordinated responses
involving campus victim services, law
enforcement, health providers, housing
officials, administrators, student leaders,
faith-based organizations, student organizations, and disciplinary boards. To be
effective, campus responses must be
linked to local criminal justice agencies
and service providers, including local law
enforcement agencies, prosecutors’
offices, courts, and nonprofit, nongovernmental victim advocacy and victim services agencies. OVW-2013-3407 (GG 2/

Medicine (R01) (NIH)
This FOA encourages Research Project
Grant (R01) applications from institutions
and organizations proposing research
aimed at characterizing animal stem cells
and improving existing, and creating new,
animal models for human disease conditions. The intent of this initiative is to
facilitate the use of stem cell-based therapies for regenerative medicine. The initiative focuses on the following areas: 1)
comparative analysis of animal and
human stem cells to provide information
for selection of the most predictive and
informative model systems; 2) development of new technologies for stem cell
characterization and transplantation; and
3) improvement of animal disease models
for stem cell-based therapeutic applications. PAR-13-114 (NIHG 2/15/13)

The Stimulating Hematology Investigation: New Endeavors (SHINE) program is
intended to promote innovative, high
quality hematology research relevant to
the mission of the National Institute of
Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK). In the SHINE program,
NIDDK invites investigator-initiated
research project grant applications in specific areas of basic and translational

Research on Forensic Science (DOJ)
The National Institute of Justice is seeking applications for funding social science
research on forensic science. Some of the
forensic disciplines, particularly in the
