Chan Zuckerberg Initiative
Request for Applications: Essential Open Source Software for Science
Summary:
The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative invites applications for software projects that are essential to biomedical research, have demonstrated impact, and can show potential for continued improvement. We aim to support open source projects and the communities behind them—whether it’s hiring an additional developer, improving documentation, addressing usability, improving compatibility, onboarding contributors, or convening a community, we hope to help make the computational foundations of biological research more usable and robust.

Department of Defense
Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR)
Summary:
The Department of Defense (DOD) plans to award fiscal year 2019 (FY19) appropriations for a future funding opportunity announcement for the Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) program. This program aims to create basic research collaborations between a pair of researchers, namely 1) Applicant (Principal investigator, Mentee), a non-previously DoD-funded, full-time faculty member with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to conduct the proposed research as the principal investigator and 2) Collaborator (co-Principal Investigator, Mentor), an investigator who was previously funded by DoD within the last seven years.
Amount:
Approximately $3.6 million in total funding will be made available for this program to fund approximately six (6) awards up to $600,000 (total cost) each. Each award will be funded up to $200,000 (total cost) per year for three (3) years in the form of a grant.
