Submit your full application for the ITM’s Pilot Science Development Program for the potential to secure $60,000 in funding, communications and video production support, and access to the ITM’s resources and network.
Since 2007, the ITM has given investigators more than $5.1 million in seed funding to conduct research that has the potential to impact human health. Pilot Award researchers have gone on to launch companies, secure millions of dollars in additional funding, build national programs, and more. The new ITM Pilot Award program launched Sept. 1, 2016, and offers more money, new communications resources, and collaboration opportunities.
The National Institute of Mental Health will fund up to $1.75 million per year for applications for Silvio O. Conte Centers for Basic Neuroscience or Translational Mental Health Research. The institute seeks teams of researchers employing integrative, novel, and creative experimental approaches to address high-risk, high-impact questions in basic neuroscience or translational research with the primary objectives of: (a) advancing the state of the science in basic brain and behavior research that will ultimately provide the foundation for understanding mental disorders; (b) supporting the integration and translation of basic and clinical neuroscience research on severe mental illnesses; and/or (c) advancing our understanding of the neurobehavioral mechanisms that begin in childhood and adolescence.

This National Cancer Institute funding supports research focused on reducing health disparities in tobacco use by developing innovative tobacco prevention and control policies. The long-term goal of this FOA is to reduce health disparities in health outcomes in vulnerable populations by reducing diseases related to tobacco use within these groups. Budgets are not limited but must reflect the amount needed to fund the project.
Translating biomedical discoveries into real-world applications is essential to improving human health. It’s a complex process that can result in delays of years or decades before improved patient outcomes result from discoveries in biomedical research – and NCATS wants solutions. NCATS’ (the ITM’s parent organization) spurs the development, demonstration, and dissemination of innovations across the translational science spectrum to turn discoveries from the laboratory into tangible benefits to human health. NCATS’s Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) hubs, like the ITM, promote advances in translational research and training at participating institutions.
This funding opportunity funds up to $275,000 to new exploratory and developmental research projects. These studies may involve considerable risk but may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on translational science. This grant will enable collaborative teams of investigators from at least two different CTSA institutions to address translational science questions. Collaborations that bring together approaches from different scientific disciplines are encouraged.

The National Cancer Institute will give $2 million to four to five projects that advance our understanding of the role of the tumor niche or microenvironment in the risks, development, progression, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer for people who also have an HIV infection or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
