DOD Army Research Laboratory Broad Agency Announcement for Basic and Applied Scientific Research   Open till 3/31/2022 W911NF-17-S-0003
The ARL BAA identifies topics of interest to the ARL Directorates (Computational and 
Information Sciences Directorate, Human Research and Engineering Directorate, Sensors and Electron Devices Directorate, Survivability/Lethality Analysis Directorate, Vehicle and Technology Directorate, and Weapons and Materials Research Directorate) and to the Army Artificial Intelligence Task Force. The Directorates focus on executing in-house research programs, with a significant emphasis on collaborative research with other organizations in an Open Campus setting. 
DOD Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) Broad Agency Announcement   Open until superseded FA9550-21-S-0001
Our focus is on research areas that offer significant and comprehensive benefits to our national warfighting and peacekeeping capabilities. These areas are organized and managed in two scientific branches, each with two teams:
* Engineering and Information Sciences(RTA): ENGINEERING AND COMPLEX SYSTEMS (RTA1) and INFORMATION AND NETWORKS (RTA2)
* Physical and Biological Sciences(RTB): PHYSICAL SCIENCES (RTB1) and CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES (RTB2)
NIH Exploratory/Developmental Bioengineering Research Grants (EBRG) (R21 Clinical Trial Optional) Up to $275k in direct cost 6/16/2021, 10/16/2021
Standard dates
Proposed research to solve a wide range of relevant problems is sought, and may explore, but is not limited to a (1) new multidisciplinary approach to a biomedical challenge; (2) high- or low-risk development of significance; or (3) data collection to support future research with potential significance. An EBRG application may propose, but is not limited to hypothesis-driven, discovery-driven, developmental, or design-directed research. It may draw upon engineering, physical sciences, biological/medical sciences, mathematics, informatics, machine learning or any other relevant source of science or know-how. 
NSF Smart Health and Biomedical Research in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Data Science  (SCH) Up to $300k per year for 4 years 11/10/2021 The SCH program is to support the development of transformative high-risk, high-reward advances in computer and information science, engineering, mathematics, statistics, behavioral and/or cognitive research to address pressing questions in the biomedical and public health communities.
