Upcoming Funding Opportunities

  • Huo Early Career Fellowships | Applications due May 1, 2026

    Funding Opportunity: Effects of the Usage of Digital Technology on Brain Development, Social Behaviours and Mental Health in Children and Young People

    Background and Motivation

    A long-standing interest of the Huo Family Foundation (HFF) is the impact of digital technology use on young people. The rapid rise of these technologies has transformed how individuals interact and engage with the world.

    To date, much of the research in this area has relied on relatively simple measures (e.g., total screen time) to assess impact. Despite these efforts, the full implications鈥攂oth positive and negative鈥攐n human physiology, psychology, behavior, well-being, and mental health remain unclear.

    HFF sees a significant opportunity to advance this field by supporting new methods and approaches that better capture the complexity of digital technology use.

    This fellowship program is part of HFF鈥檚 growing research portfolio in this area and represents the second annual call.

    Funding Opportunity

    The Huo Family Foundation invites applications for Early-Career Fellowships to support talented postdoctoral researchers transitioning to independence.

    Fellows will design, plan, and lead their own innovative research projects focused on:

    • Brain development and function (including physiological responses)
    • Social behavior and interactions
    • Well-being and mental health

  • NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Biology | Applications due September 29, 2026

    Supports postdoctoral fellowships that train early-career scientists to apply AI to biological research, advancing biotechnology innovation while preparing future leaders at the intersection of AI and biology.

    Synopsis

    The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Biological Research has the potential to pave the way for breakthroughs in biotechnology and bio-system design that will create innovations, new industries, and jobs. To capitalize on this promise, the Directorate for Biological Sciences (BIO) will make awards for Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Biology (PRFB) to recent doctoral degree recipients, for proposals with a research and training focus at the听Intersection of听Artificial Intelligence and Biological Sciences to Strengthen and Safeguard Biotechnology Innovations.听Applying AI to highly complex biological systems will reveal unknown mechanisms in the natural world that hold promise for technological developments.

    Candidates with AI and/or biology experience will develop deep expertise in both by proposing additional training in both areas. These combinations of current expertise and new cross-training will produce scientists who work seamlessly at the intersection of AI and biology. The fellows are expected to become field leaders who use AI capabilities to extrapolate from biological data to technological advances.

    Proposers are encouraged to consider how to leverage the nation鈥檚 diversity of existing biological data, and biological infrastructure, such as Biofoundries, Programmable Cloud Labs, Manufacturing USA Institutes, and NEON, to accelerate discovery, innovation and the biotechnology that improves human lives, promotes the U.S. economy, and benefits the nation.听

  • Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (AGS 鈥� PRF) - Proposals Accepted Anytime

    Supports postdoctoral researchers in performing work that will broaden their perspectives, facilitate interdisciplinary interactions, and help establish them in leadership positions within the atmospheric and geospace sciences communities.

    Synopsis

    The Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences (AGS), awards Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (PRF) to highly qualified early career investigators to carry out an independent research program. The research plan of each Fellowship must address scientific questions within the scope of AGS disciplines. These disciplines include Atmospheric Chemistry (ATC), Climate and Large-Scale Dynamics (CLD), Paleoclimate (PC), and Physical and Dynamic Meteorology (PDM) in the Atmospheric Sciences, and Aeronomy (AER), Magnetospheric Physics (MAG), Solar Terrestrial (ST), and Space Weather Research (SWR) in the Geospace Sciences.

    The AGS-PRF program supports researchers (also known as Fellows) for a period of up to 24 months with Fellowships that can be taken to the institution of their choice. The program is intended to recognize beginning investigators of significant potential and provide them with experiences in research that will broaden perspectives, facilitate interdisciplinary interactions, and help establish them in leadership positions within the Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences community. Fellowships are awarded to individual Fellows, not institutions, and are administered by the Fellows.

    AGS has made it a priority to address challenges in creating an inclusive geoscience discipline through activities that increase belonging, accessibility, justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (BAJEDI). Proposers are encouraged to explicitly address this priority in their proposed activities. Proposers who are women, veterans, persons with disabilities, and underrepresented minorities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), or who have attended two-year colleges and minority-serving institutions for undergraduate or graduate school, or plan to conduct their Fellowship activities at one of these institutions (e.g. Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions, Alaska Native Serving Institutions, and Hawaiian Native and Pacific Islander Serving Institutions) are especially encouraged to apply.

Grant Submission Resources & Guidelines

All proposals submitted for external funding require the review and approval of the Sponsored Program Administration (SPA) for 糖心Vlog官方 (VU) and the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) for 糖心Vlog官方 Medical Center (VUMC). SPA and OSP are responsible for providing the official signature, electronic or physical, for all proposals submitted on behalf of VU and VUMC respectively. With very few exceptions faculty members/principal investigators, or their designee, are not authorized to sign or submit any form of a request for external funding that does not also include SPA or OSP鈥檚 official approval since awards are made to the institution and not the individual.

Direct-to-individual funding mechanisms (such as NSF postdoctoral fellowships), while not submitted through SPA or OSP, require VU or VUMC to be notified of the submission. The link to submit such a notification is provided below.

Before beginning the grant writing process, postdocs should consult with the relevant departmental/program administrator to determine if their current funding source enables effort to be expended on writing and preparing grant applications. Postdocs funded 100% on a federal research grant cannot devote effort to grant writing and should work with their faculty mentor to determine if alternative funds are available during the proposal preparation period to support a percentage of their effort.

Please submit the听 before the application is submitted to the funding agency.

In preparing your grant application please note:

  • A postdoc may serve as the principal investigator (PI) of a grant, upon written approval of the faculty mentor and the department chair (VUMC) or the relevant dean (VU). There should be clear evidence that the postdoc has the experience and expertise to function as PI and manage the responsibilities to direct the proposed research program, direct the budgeted personnel, manage the budget, and ensure that the research is carried in compliance with all applicable University rules and regulations as well as those of the sponsoring agency.
  • A postdoc may serve as a co-PI without prior approval, as long as another 糖心Vlog官方 faculty member (typically their mentor) is the PI. 听Should a postdoc leave the University, any awarded grant funds would remain at 糖心Vlog官方 unless otherwise negotiated between the PI, co-PI and funding agency.
  • If an externally funded program听requires听that a postdoc be listed as a principal investigator (PI) or co-PI, no specific approval is required.听SPA or OSP notification of the submission is required.

For NRSA Individual Fellowships, childcare supplements may be requested. Visit NIH Notice for more information.听
