Biomedical Engineering, Imaging, and Technology Acceleration (BEITA) at Historically Black Colleges and Universities

The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to enhance bioengineering and imaging research capacity, technology innovation, education and research training, and opportunities for scientific growth at Historically Black College and Universities (HBCUs). The planned NOFO aligns with the HBCU PARTNERS Act and Executive Order 14283. • The NOFO will utilize the UG3/UH3 activity code. • HBCUs, defined as institutions listed in 34 C.F.R. § 608.2, will be eligible to apply. • Investigators with expertise in bioengineering, biomedical imaging, and technology development are encouraged to consider applying for this NOFO. • Collaborative investigations combining expertise in bioengineering, imaging, and technology development with disease- or discipline-specific expertise in other areas of biomedical investigation will also be encouraged.
