    The Department of Health and Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and specifically the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), has announced a funding opportunity focused on the development of alternative human models for studying radiation-induced injuries. The primary goal is to enhance understanding and mitigation of acute and delayed radiation injuries through the creation of extracorporeal systems that accurately mimic human responses. Research is encouraged to explore mechanisms of injury and test medical countermeasures (MCMs) that could be pivotal in public health emergencies. The funding opportunity, titled "Development of Alternative Human Models of Radiation-Induced Injuries," is structured as a U01 cooperative agreement, with an available budget of $4 million targeted for six to eight awards in FY 2026. Eligible applicants include diverse higher education institutions, nonprofits, and local government entities, but clinical trials are not permitted under this funding opportunity. Key application dates include an opening date of January 6, 2025, with a submission deadline of February 7, 2025. NIH expects proposals to incorporate rigorous methodologies, detailed milestones, and preliminary data to support the research's feasibility and significance in addressing the gaps in knowledge related to radiation-induced injuries. The initiative reflects an ongoing commitment to advancing medical preparedness for radiation incidents.
