With nearly two-thirds of its population under age 30, the country's shift to English-medium instruction and ambitious University 4.0 initiative create unprecedented openings for American collaboration in the technology sector. As Algeria modernizes its digital infrastructure and educational systems, there is strong interest in partnering with leading technology providers to ensure access to cutting-edge tools and internationally recognized standards. Algeria's next generation of technology leaders—students, educators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders—currently have limited access to training in U.S. artificial intelligence tools, international standards, and best practices in AI governance. Providing access to American AI methodologies and best practices will help ensure that Algerian professionals have diverse options and can make informed choices about the technological ecosystems that best serve their needs and reflect democratic values of transparency, user-centered design, and ethical AI development. This Freedom250 initiative addresses these opportunities by leveraging the five American Spaces across Algeria to deliver practical, hands-on AI training to at least 150 strategic participants who will serve as multipliers within their communities. The program advances U.S. priorities in technological excellence and international partnerships by introducing American AI methodologies in Algeria's technology landscape. Through a modular curriculum spanning AI fundamentals, evaluation frameworks, hands-on labs, and localized application development, participants progress from conceptual understanding to practical proficiency, becoming advocates who can independently apply American frameworks in their professional contexts. This initiative builds directly on Mission Algeria's proven track record in technology and education programming. A 2026 program featuring a Freedom250 AI Envoy engaged Algeria's Ministry of Youth, establishing productive government relationships and demonstrating official interest in U.S. AI collaboration. Additionally, the Mission's 2025 collaboration with the Ministries of Higher Education and Vocational Training—including the country's largest English teaching conference—revealed that 70% of participating teachers expressed greater interest in learning about American AI tools, validating significant demand for practical AI training. The Public Diplomacy Section seeks to implement a transformative program that strengthens U.S.-Algeria partnership in artificial intelligence and emerging technology. At least 150 participants across five cities will complete the program with measurable gains, producing tangible artifacts like prompt libraries and localized AI applications. A cohort of trained local facilitators will later independently deliver the curriculum, enabling the American Spaces to continue programming beyond initial funding and exponentially expand reach. The alumni will serve as advocates for American AI frameworks, with educators integrating U.S. tools into teaching, entrepreneurs building ventures on American platforms, and community leaders promoting informed discourse about ethical technology development using learned frameworks. The ideal implementing partner will demonstrate sustainability-first design through clear training-of-trainers strategies, capacity to deliver quality programming across all five cities, rigorous monitoring and evaluation frameworks, emphasis on practical application over theory, concrete alumni engagement plans, and flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances including virtual delivery. This program represents an important opportunity to strengthen bilateral cooperation. The successful implementer will share the Mission's vision of promoting American technological excellence and ensuring democratic values shape the digital future of the region. Project Audience(s): The primary beneficiaries of this program are the minimum of 150 participants across five Algerian cities who will receive direct training in U.S.-aligned AI tools, standards, and governance frameworks. The program targets university students (ages 18-30) pursuing degrees in technology, engineering, business, and education—a particularly strategic demographic given that nearly two-thirds of Algeria's population is under 30. These young professionals represent the future workforce and are eager to acquire cutting-edge skills that enhance their employability in the global technology marketplace. Educators including teachers, professors, and instructional designers serve as critical multipliers who can integrate American AI tools into their curricula, potentially reaching hundreds of additional students over their careers. They are positioned to normalize U.S. technological frameworks within Algeria's educational system and shape how the next generation understands and applies AI technologies. The program also targets entrepreneurs and small business owners developing technology-based ventures or seeking to integrate AI solutions into existing businesses. This audience is motivated by practical applications that improve efficiency and create competitive advantages. Finally, community leaders and civil society representatives working in non-governmental organizations and youth programs influence public discourse about technology adoption and are positioned to promote ethical AI development and democratic governance frameworks that align with American values. These audiences share key characteristics: they have capacity to train others and are at career stages where exposure to American frameworks can shape long-term professional trajectories. Project Goal:   The goal is to establish the United States as Algeria's preferred partner for artificial intelligence development by embedding American AI tools, standards, and governance frameworks within Algeria's emerging technology ecosystem.

The Blueprint Neurotherapeutics Network (BPN) invites applications from neuroscience investigators seeking support to advance their small molecule drug discovery and development projects into the clinic. Participants in the BPN are responsible for conducting all studies that involve disease- or target-specific assays, models, and other research tools and receive funding for all activities to be conducted in their own laboratories. In addition, applicants will collaborate with NIH-funded consultants and can augment their project with NIH contract research organizations (CROs) that specialize in medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetics, toxicology, formulations development, chemical synthesis including under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and Phase I clinical testing. Projects can enter either at the Discovery stage, to optimize promising hit compounds through medicinal chemistry to the Development stage, to advance a single development candidate through Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling toxicology studies and phase I clinical testing. Alternatively, projects can enter at the Development stage and progress in a shorter period to IND enabling toxicology studies and phase I clinical testing. BPN awardee Institutions retain their assignment of IP rights and gain assignment of IP rights from the BPN contractors (and thereby control the patent prosecution and licensing negotiations) for drug candidates developed in this program.

The goal of this NOFO is to support doctoral candidates from a variety of academic disciplines for up to two years for the completion of the doctoral dissertation research project. Research projects should align with NIDA funding priorities detailed here (https://www.drugabuse.gov/funding/funding-priorities). This award will facilitate the entry of promising new investigators into the field of substance use/substance use disorder (SU(D) research, enhancing the pool of highly talented SU(D) researchers.

Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) solicits applications for identification of small molecules that function to elucidate the biology of disease as chemical probes or function as agonists or antagonists of disease target(s) for therapy or immunotherapy. The NOFO is intended to support discovery research for the identification of validated hits relevant to health-related outcomes of participating NIH Institutes. Stages of discovery research covered by this NOFO include: 1) assay development for specific biological targets and disease mechanisms relevant to the mission of participating NIH Institutes with the intent to screen for small molecule compounds that show potential as probes for use in advancing knowledge about the known targets, identifying new targets, or as pre-therapeutic leads; 2) screen implementation high throughput target-focused approaches or moderate throughput phenotypic- and fragment-based approaches to identify initial screening hits; 3) hit validation, including implementation of secondary assays that are orthogonal to the primary assay, advanced cheminformatics analysis and initial medicinal chemistry inspection to prioritize the hit set, and follow-up assays to characterize mode and mechanism of action of the validated hits; 4) hit-to-lead optimization, including SAR to optimize target engagement, selectivity and to minimize chemical liabilities, ADME, PK and PD studies, and, if appropriate, in vivo modeling to test efficacy or biological effects.

The purpose of this announcement is to encourage investigators to pursue translational activities and small clinical studies to advance the development of therapeutic, and diagnostic devices for disorders that affect the nervous or neuromuscular systems. Activities supported in this program include implementation of clinical prototype devices, non-clinical safety and efficacy testing, design verification and validation activities, obtaining an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for a Significant Risk (SR) study, as well as a subsequent small clinical study. The clinical study is expected to provide information about the device function or final design that cannot be practically obtained through additional non-clinical assessments (e.g., bench top or animal studies) due to the novelty of the device or its intended use. This FOA is a milestone-driven cooperative agreement program and will involve participation of NIH program staff in negotiating the final project plan before award and monitoring of research progress.

The purpose of this announcement is to encourage investigators to pursue a small clinical trial to obtain critical information necessary to advance recording and/or stimulating devices to treat central nervous system disorders and better understand the human brain (e.g., Early Feasibility Study). Clinical studies supported may consist of acute or short-term procedures that are deemed Non-Significant Risk (NSR) by an Institutional Review Board (IRB), or Significant Risk (SR) studies that require an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the FDA, such as chronic implants. The clinical trial should provide data to answer key questions about the function or final design of a device. This final device design may require most, if not all, of the non-clinical testing on the path to more advanced clinical trials and market approval. The clinical trial is expected to provide information that cannot be practically obtained through additional non-clinical assessments (e.g., bench top or animal studies) due to the novelty of the device or its intended use. Activities supported by this Funding Opportunity include a small clinical trial to answer key questions about the function or final design of a device.As part of the BRAIN Initiative, NIH has initiated a Public-Private Partnership Program (BRAIN PPP) that includes agreements (Memoranda of Understanding, MOU) with a number of device manufacturers willing to make such devices available, including devices and capabilities not yet market approved but appropriate for clinical research. In general it is expected that the devices' existing safety and utility data will be sufficient to enable new IRB NSR or FDA IDE approval without need for significant additional non-clinical data. For more information on the BRAIN PPP, see http://braininitiative.nih.gov/BRAIN_PPP/index.htm

Through this funding opportunity announcement (FOA), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications for P50 Research Center Grants for Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE). The program will fund P50 SPORE grants to support state-of-the-art investigator-initiated translational research that will contribute to improved prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of an organ-specific cancer or a highly related group of cancers. For the purpose of this FOA, a group of highly related cancers are those that are derived from the same organ system, such as gastrointestinal, neuroendocrine, head and neck, and other cancers. Other programmatically appropriate groups of cancers may include those centered around a common biological mechanism critical for promoting tumorigenesis and/or cancer progression in organ sites that belong to different organ systems. For example, a SPORE may focus on cancers caused by the same infectious agent or cancers promoted and sustained by dysregulation of a common signaling pathway. In addition, a SPORE may focus on cross-cutting themes such as pediatric cancers or cancer health disparities. The research supported through this program must be translational and must stem from research on human biology using cellular, molecular, structural, biochemical, and/or genetic experimental approaches. SPORE projects must have the goal of reaching a translational human endpoint within the project period of the grant.

The purpose of the NCI Pathway to Independence Award for Early-Stage Postdoctoral Researchers (K99/R00) program is to increase and maintain a strong cohort of new and talented, NCI-supported, independent investigators. This program is designed for postdoctoral fellows with research and/or clinical doctoral degrees who do not require an extended period of mentored research training beyond their doctoral degrees. The objective of this award is to facilitate a timely transition of these fellows from their mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent tenure-track (or equivalent) faculty positions. The program will provide independent NCI research support during this transition to help awardees to launch competitive, independent research careers. Researchers in the scientific areas of cancer control, cancer prevention and cancer data sciences are especially encouraged to work with their institutions to apply. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is designed specifically for candidates proposing to serve as the lead investigator of an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or a separate ancillary clinical trial, as part of their research and career development. Those not planning an independent clinical trial, or proposing to gain research experience in a clinical trial led by another investigator, must apply to the 'Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed' companion NOFO (PAR-23-286).
