CFDE Funding Opportunity

CFDE has announced a new Notice of Funding Opportunity (RFA-RM-23-013), which seeks proposals for projects that involve collaboration with multiple Common Fund Data Coordinating Centers (DCCs) to combine discovery and/or translational approaches with work that will enhance reusability of Common Fund data and contribute knowledge to the Common Fund Data Ecosystem. Proposed projects should improve the overall re-use potential of Common Fund data by developing and testing services needed to efficiently access, analyze, and, if necessary, integrate the data. Applications must involve a collaboration between at least two Common Fund DCCs listed in the Background section of the Notice and at least one external PI not currently funded by a CF program.

There will be an informational webinar on August 28th from 2-3 PM ET for any interested applicants to learn more about the opportunity and ask questions directly to the CFDE team. The registration link is here: https://bit.ly/CFDE_Partnerships_Webinar Learn more on the Common Fund Data Ecosystem website and contact the CFDE team at CFDE@od.nih.gov with any additional questions.
