View this email in your browser -- A multi-institution team of dedicated scientists work to create the SPARC Portal, but how well do you know the team leaders? The Principal Investigators (PIs) play a pivotal role in shaping SPARC's vision to bridge the body and the brain. They spur the creation of an environment where data takes center stage and foster a culture of sharing and reuse. Join usTuesday, December 12th at 4:00 pm ET for a conversation sponsored by the American Physiological Society. SPARC PIs Maryann Martone, PhD, and Peter Hunter, PhD, will explore the SCKAN knowledge base, SPARC knowledge graph and potential uses of the portal for the wider range of physiological processes.

Hi Jeremy,I have a couple updates from the 4DN program for inclusion in the CFDE newsletter (unless they’ve already been submitted, in which case please keep the version provided by the 4D Nucleome program!)Thanks so much!Best,BeccaThe 4DN Summer Undergraduate Program for Excellence in Research (SUPER) is seeking applications for a paid summer research internship for undergraduate students. Students will be hosted by labs participating in the 4DN program, studying the structure and function of the nucleus. The individual opportunities are experimental, computational or both in labs using genomics, imaging or both. The internship will provide an opportunity for students to build connections, gain scientific skills, and conduct research. NIH encourages the participation of individuals from populations that are underrepresented in the biomedical, clinical, behavioral and social sciences. See the Notice of NIH’s Interest in Diversity.Eligible students are:College Undergraduate Freshman through Seniors at a U.S. institution at the time of applicationPursuing a major in a STEM field with a minimum 2.8 GPAA minimum of 18 years of agePlease visit the program announcement for more details and to apply. Inquiries or requests for more information should be directed to oh@4dnucleome.org.----------------The 4D Nucleome program is accepting applications for the 2024 4DN Hackathon, which will be hosted at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington from March 18-21st, 2024. The hackathon is open to all students, faculty, and staff from the general scientific community – no coding experience is required. This opportunity offers participants the chance to explore genome organization, build something novel, learn from peers, and get familiar with the 4DN program’s data and research! 40-50 applicants will be selected, and travel and accommodations will be completely supported.Find more details and the application here: hack4dnucleome.github.ioThe priority deadline for a better chance at a preferred project is December 31st, 2023, and the final deadline to apply January 20th, 2024.

"SenNet + HOA - Hacking the Human Vasculature in 3D" Kaggle Competition

The “SenNet + HOA - Hacking the Human Vasculature in 3D” Kaggle competition is now LIVE at https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/blood-vessel-segmentation. The aim of this competition is to solve a fundamental problem in at least one organ, and to develop a first understanding of what vascular scaffold is needed to map senescent cells in tissue regions. A total prize amount of $80,000 (sponsored by Kaggle, CIFAR, and Thermo Fisher Scientific) will be distributed among the five winning teams. You can join any time before January 30, 2024. Our welcome message here includes additional information and links. Please share this information widely! For questions, contact Nancy Ruschman: nruschma@iu.edu

CFDE Funding Opportunities

Short Courses to Promote the Broad and Rigorous Use of Common Fund Data (R25 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

CFDE is announcing the CFDE Research Education Program (RFA-RM-23-014), which aims to maximize the impact of these data and engage a broader community of end-users for wider adoption of Common Fund data sets. The program funded under this initiative will provide short courses on how to access, integrate, and interpret two or more Common Fund data sets in rigorous biomedical research designs, and mentoring activities to support the career development and retention of course trainees as long-term Common Fund data users.

Applications are due February 14, 2024, by 5:00 PM local time of the applicant organization.

More information can be found on the Common Fund Data Ecosystem website. Email Dr. Sahana Kukke at sahana.kukke@nih.gov with any additional questions.
