Find Funding Opportunities
Beginning in FY26 (October 1, 2025), the NIH will no longer post notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) in the NIH Guide. Instead, Grants.gov will serve as the NIH’s single official source for grant and cooperative agreement funding opportunities. For more information, see NOT-OD-25-143.
If you are interested in grants for behavioral research in cancer prevention and control, review this selection of current funding opportunity announcements.
In an effort to standardize terminology across the government, NIH is joining other federal agencies in using the term notice of funding opportunities (NOFOs) rather than funding opportunity announcements (FOAs). You will see both terms in use while we work to update our websites and resources.
