Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality
Funds research on healthcare quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness. Supports studies improving how health care is delivered, organized, financed, and evaluated.
Sloan Foundation
Funds research and education in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and economics. Supports fundamental research at universities and nonprofits that improves understanding of the world.
American Cancer Society
The American Cancer Society funds a broad portfolio of cancer research through its intramural grants program, supporting investigators studying cancer biology, prevention, early detection, treatment, and survivorship. Research Scholar Grants support established investigators while Postdoctoral Fellowships and Institutional Research Grants support early-career researchers. All ACS-funded research must have the potential to reduce the burden of cancer.
American Heart Association
The AHA Innovative Project Award provides funding for pioneering research in cardiovascular disease and stroke. Awards support high-risk, high-reward projects that may not fit traditional funding mechanisms. The program encourages innovative approaches and novel hypotheses that have the potential to transform understanding of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.
American Meteorological Society
Funds graduate students pursuing advanced degrees in atmospheric and related sciences.
Annie E. Casey Foundation
Funds efforts to build better futures for children and families in need. Supports nonprofits working on child welfare, economic opportunity, and community change.
U.S. Department of Energy
ARPA-E funds transformational energy technology research that is too early for private investment but has the potential to radically change how the US generates, stores, and uses energy. Program Managers design focused programs targeting specific technical challenges and solicit proposals through open FOAs. ARPA-E prioritizes projects with very high potential impact and high technical risk.
Burroughs Wellcome Fund
Supports researchers at critical early stages of their careers in biomedical sciences. Multiple award mechanisms support researchers from graduate school through early faculty positions.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
CDC provides grants to train and deploy Community Health Workers (CHWs) who serve as a bridge between health and social services and the community. CHW programs improve health outcomes for underserved populations by addressing social determinants of health, promoting preventive care, and helping individuals navigate health and social service systems.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Funds academic research centers conducting applied public health research with communities. Centers focus on chronic disease prevention through community-based participatory research.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
CDC research grants fund studies that advance public health science and translate evidence into practice to prevent disease, disability, and death. Priority areas include chronic disease prevention, infectious disease surveillance, injury prevention, environmental health, and health disparities research. Awards are made to domestic and international universities, public health agencies, and nonprofits.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
CDC's Rural Health program funds initiatives to improve the health of rural populations who often face greater challenges accessing quality health care. Grants support telehealth infrastructure, rural health workforce development, chronic disease prevention, maternal and child health, and behavioral health programs in rural communities across the United States.
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
DARPA funds high-risk, high-reward research that creates revolutionary capabilities for national defense in areas such as artificial intelligence, biotechnology, quantum computing, hypersonic systems, and electronic warfare. Program Managers identify specific research challenges and solicit proposals through Broad Agency Announcements. DARPA does not fund basic academic research; projects must have a clear transition path to military application.
Department of Defense
Funds research to understand, prevent, and treat Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Supports innovative basic, translational, and clinical research with a focus on military relevance.
U.S. Department of Defense
DOD basic research programs at Army Research Office, Office of Naval Research, and Air Force Office of Scientific Research fund fundamental research in science and engineering that advances knowledge relevant to defense missions. Awards support university investigators exploring phenomena in areas including materials, chemistry, electronics, fluid dynamics, and cognitive sciences. Research results must be freely publishable.
