    The Department of Health and Human Services, through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), announces funding for Exploratory/Developmental Bioengineering Research Grants (EBRG) aimed at enhancing biomedical research and clinical care. This initiative encourages innovative applications focused on developing new capabilities that address challenges in biomedical, preclinical, or clinical settings. The maximum budget for applicants is $275,000 over two years, with specific deadlines beginning January 16, 2025. Applications must align with NIH guidelines and can be submitted through various systems like Grants.gov or NIH ASSIST. Key objectives include identifying cancer risks, improving solutions' accessibility, and supporting early-stage research collaboration across disciplines. The program specifically welcomes projects that explore unproven approaches and emphasize feasibility testing and novel methodologies. However, proposals for late-stage trials or basic cancer biology studies are not accepted. Eligible applicants include universities, nonprofits, and small businesses, particularly those representing underrepresented groups. The initiative reflects NIH's commitment to advancing cancer research through innovative bioengineering approaches.
