NCI Pathway to Independence Award for Early-Stage Postdoctoral Researchers (K99/R00 - Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed) The NCI Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) targets talented postdoctoral researchers ready to transition into independent careers without extended mentored training. Its primary goal is to foster a cohort of NCI-supported investigators by facilitating the move from mentored fellowships to tenure-track faculty positions. Applications are particularly encouraged from those specializing in cancer control, prevention, and data sciences. Specifically for candidates proposing research that does not involve leading an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or an ancillary clinical trial. Internal Deadline: Thursday, August 13, 2026 Learn more ?? International Programs & Trade, Invasive Species Program Funding Opportunity(USDA-FS-IPT-INVASIVE-SPECIES-2026) The IPT Invasive Species program provides grants to turn scientific research into real-world action that protects U.S. agriculture and natural landscapes from harmful pests. The program prioritizes projects that use existing risk data to create practical tools, updated policies, and improved prevention or detection strategies, particularly through international collaboration funding up to $500,000 total across 1 to 3 awards (maximum $250,000 per grant). Internal Deadline: Wednesday, August 19, 2026 Learn more ?? NSF 26-513: U.S. National Science Foundation State and Regional Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Hubs The NSF State and Regional AI Infrastructure Hubs program expands student and researcher access to AI computing, data, and software to speed up scientific discovery and build a skilled technical workforce. NSF provides $4 million to $12 million over five years to fund the research activities, faculty training, and hands-on workforce development built on that infrastructure. Internal Deadline: Thursday, September 3, 2026 Learn more ?? Development of Collaborative Research Facilities or Research-Resource Facilities (PAR-26-106) This NOFO funds the construction or modernization of shared-use, collaborative research facilities through the Biomedical Research Facilities (BRF) and HIV/AIDS Research Facilities (HRF) programs. Projects require a minimum budget of $2,000,000, with maximums of $8,000,000 for BRF and $4,000,000 for HRF, spanning a single five-year award period.

Institutions are limited to two non-overlapping proposals per deadline. Because UCR received an award in August 2024, applications should wait at least until the end of the third year of execution of their current award before submitting a new Track 2 or Track 3 S-STEM proposal for the same disciplines. Internal Deadline: Monday, November 16, 2026 Learn more ?? Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award The Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Awards Program gives $100,000 grants to exceptional early-career professors in the chemical sciences across the United States. Eligible applicants must work in Ph.D.-granting departments that prioritize both advanced research and undergraduate education. Candidates must submit a three-page pre-proposal highlighting their independent research accomplishments, future research vision, and dedicated contributions to chemical education.
