Pilot Projects to Enhance the Human Virome Program (R03 Clinical Trials Not Allowed)

National Institutes of Health

The Common Fund Human Virome Program (HVP) aims to extensively and comprehensively characterize the "healthy" human virome (the collection of viruses that normally reside inside the human body without evidence of disease) and create tools, models, and methods that will enable an in-depth study of its variation and composition in relation to host factors and its influence on health and disease. The purpose of this NOFO is to support small pilot projects that extend the goals of the HVP, including further validating, improving, and complementing existing and newly developed tools from the HVP program by leveraging human specimens collected from the cohorts under the program; samples from animals to promote the refinement, utilization, and translation of these tools to better serve the goals of the HVP program; expanding existing cohorts and/or biospecimen sampling sites for virome characterization; developing tools, assays, and methods to study the human virome; and defining functional interactions between the human virome and host. These pilot projects will expand the HVP consortium, and collaboration across the HVP is expected. Applicants outside the current HVP are encouraged to apply and pilot projects should not overlap with existing HVP efforts (visit the Common Fund website for a list of funded research).

ROSES 2025: B.7 The Heliophysics Low-Cost Access to Space

NASA Headquarters

The close date above is the date for the Step-2 proposal due date. The Step-1 proposal due date is November 20, 2026 . Step-2 proposals cannot be submitted if a Step-1 proposal was not submitted. NOTICE: Amended October 7, 2026. This amendment adds this new program element to ROSES-2025. Step-1 proposals are due by November 20, 2026, and Step-2 proposals are due March 16, 2027. The page limit for the anonymized central Science-Technical-Management (S/T/M) section of proposals is 20 pages. Proposers must provide a separately uploaded Payload Reference Document (PRD) to allow NASA to best match the research payload needs with multiple compatible flight platforms and identify the greatest suborbital research capabilities and launch flexibilities possible. See Section 1.3.1. New: Proposals must include a “Rideshare Opportunity” section that describes the availability of resources for a rideshare instrument to be included with the flight. See Section 4.4. New: Proposals self-identified as "science-enabling-only" must include an Application of Traceability Matrix, see 4.2.3. New: Proposals will be submitted via a binding two-step submission process, see Section 3. New: Proposals will be evaluated using dual anonymous peer review, so the technical proposal must be anonymized, see Section 5.1. All proposers are strongly encouraged to use the standard SMD template for the Open Science Data Management Plan see https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/faqs/OSDMP This synopsis is a generic summary that is posted for each of the many individual "program elements" in NASA’s Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2025 solicitation. For specific information on this particular program element download and read the PDF of the text of this program element by going to Tables 2 or 3 of ROSES at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025table2 and https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025table3 , respectively, click the title of the program element of interest, a hypertext link will take you to a page for that particular program element. On that page, on the right side under "Announcement Documents" the link on the bottom will be to the PDF of the text of the call for proposals. For example, if one were interested in the Solar System Science program (NNH25ZDA001N-SCUBED) one would follow the link to the NSPIRES page for that program element and then to read the text of the call one would click on “C.2 Solar System Science (.pdf)” to download the text of the call. If one wanted to set it into the context of the goals, objectives and know the default rules for all elements within Appendix C, the planetary science division, one might download and read “ C.1 Planetary Science Research Program Overview (.pdf) ” from that same page. While the letters and numbers are different for each element within ROSES (A.10, B.3, etc.) the basic configuration is always the same, e.g., the letter indicates the Science Division (A is Earth Science, B is Heliophysics etc.) and whatever the letter, #1 is always the division overview. In 2025, most program elements will be set up for application via Grants.gov only if requested at least 30 days in advance of the due date. For more on Grants.gov submissions see Section IV(b)v of the ROSES Summary of Solicitation, that may be found at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025 . The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) released its annual omnibus Research Announcement (NRA), Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2025 (OMB Approval Number 2700-0092, CFDA Number 43.001) on February 21, 2025. In this case "omnibus" means that this NRA has many individual program elements, each with its own due dates and topics. All together these cover the wide range of basic and applied supporting research and technology supported by SMD. Awards will be made as grants, cooperative agreements, or contracts depending on the nature of the work propos
