University Global Partnership Network Research Collaboration Fund
This fund supports international activities leading to research collaborations between researchers at the University Global Partnership Network’s partner institutions. Network members are top universities around the world including The University of São Paulo in Brazil, University of Surrey in the United Kingdom and The University of Wollongong in Australia.

The annual fund of $240,000 has supported 56 international research projects to date. Awards support substantive engagement that leads to high-quality outputs — such as international research training for graduate students or early career faculty, publication of joint papers from collaborative research, or joint research bids.

Submission Deadline: 5/31/19. Full details here.

HRSA: Rural Communities Opioid Response Program – Rural Centers of Excellence on Substance Use Disorders
RCORP-RCOE is part of the RCORP initiative, which is a multiyear effort to reduce the morbidity and mortality of substance use disorder (SUD), including opioid use disorder (OUD), in rural communities at the highest risk for these conditions. RCORP-RCOE will provide up to three years of funding to support three Rural Centers of Excellence (Centers) on SUD. The purpose of RCORP-RCOE is to support the identification, translation, dissemination, and implementation of evidence-based programs and best practices “related to the treatment for and prevention of substance use disorders within rural communities, with a focus on the current opioid crisis and developing methods to address future substance use disorder epidemics.”

NSF: Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC)
The PFC program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. Activities supported through the program are in all sub-fields of physics within the purview of the Division of Physics: atomic, molecular, optical, plasma, elementary particle, nuclear, particle astro-, gravitational, and biological physics.
Internal deadline -  Notification of interest: 5/9/19
Limit - 2 per institution
Sponsor deadline - Preliminary Proposal: 8/1/19; Full proposal (by invitation only): 1/30/20
