> Novel Interventions for Neurodevelopmental Disorders (R34) (NIH)
> This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits R34 grant applications that propose 
> to develop novel interventions that will improve functioning in domains commonly 
> affected by neurodevelopmental disorders. It provides resources for evaluating the 
> feasibility, tolerability, acceptability, and safety of novel approaches, and for 
> obtaining the preliminary data needed to support the development of a larger-scale 
> efficacy trial. This FOA is intended to encourage a broad scope of new treatment 
> approaches with potential for widespread, cost-effective application across a variety of 
> neurodevelopmental disorders based on the targeted domain(s) of functioning. The 
> treatment approaches may include psychopharmacologic, other physiological, cognitive, 
> psychosocial, psychoeducational, and behavioral approaches or novel combinations of any 
> of these approaches. This FOA will utilize the NIMH Clinical Exploratory/Developmental 
> Research Grant (R34) award mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical 
> scope, RFA-MH-09-021, which solicits applications using the Exploratory/Developmental 
> Phased Innovation grant (R21/R33) award mechanism. RFA-MH-09-020 (NIHG 3/8/08)

> 14-4 NEA Creativity and Aging in America (NEA)
> Creativity and Aging in America is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts 
> designed to actively engage older Americans in quality arts programs. Through this 
> initiative, the Arts Endowment will support exemplary projects in the disciplines of 
> literature and music. Projects must be conducted by professional artists and engage 
> older adults as students, artists, and/or teachers. For the purposes of these 
> guidelines, older adults are age 65 and above. Recent research supported by the National 
> Institutes of Health, AARP, International Foundation for Music Research, and the 
> National Endowment for the Arts found that older adults who actively participated in 
> ongoing, community-based arts programs, conducted by professional artists, experienced 
> more physical and mental benefits than participants in non-arts activities. Activities 
> may take place in a variety of settings such as senior centers, community centers, 
> retirement centers, museums, literary centers, performing arts centers, libraries, 
> schools, and healthcare facilities. Projects must be planned in cooperation with the 
> target population including local organizations that address aging-related issues. 
> Organizations are limited to one Creativity and Aging application per year. 2208NEA01CA
