NIOSH has provided financial and technical assistance to develop or expand state-level OSH surveillance capacity and infrastructure since the 1970s. From 2021-2026, NIOSH funded cooperative agreements in 23 states under announcement PAR-20-312 . These programs varied in scope and focus, each providing a level of occupational health expertise to the public health system in their state. Grantees included 19 state health departments, 2 state Departments of Labor, and 5 formal partnerships between state health departments and universities (bona fide agents). More information about these OSH surveillance programs is available on the NIOSH Extramural Program website . With this funding announcement, NIOSH maintains its priority to develop OSH surveillance capacity within state and jurisdictional public health systems, utilizing public and other data sources such as electronic medical and laboratory reporting, hospital discharge databases, death records, cancer registries, and public health surveys. OSH surveillance, when coupled with other public health surveillance efforts, also provides the opportunity to assess the role of work in the overall health status of the U.S. population. State public health agencies and their partners can link OSH surveillance findings with voluntary interventions, education, and outreach activities. While federal and state regulatory programs establish and enforce health and safety standards, they do not include all workplaces and may have limited jurisdictional authority. Through the application of public health approaches , state OSH surveillance programs can identify new problems, develop tailored interventions, encourage participation, and evaluate impacts with a broader scope and in ways that regulatory counterparts cannot. By working in partnership with NIOSH, these programs help fill critical gaps to protect the health and safety of all working people.

The purpose of the R01 grant program is to (1) improve understanding of the risks and conditions associated with occupational diseases and injuries, (2) identify and evaluate methods to reduce risks and prevent or minimize exposure to hazardous workplace conditions, and (3) translate scientific findings into practical prevention strategies, interventions, and products that reduce work-related illnesses and injuries. The Research Project Grant (R01) supports a discrete, specified research project in scientific areas that reflect the investigator's expertise and interests and that align with the mission of NIOSH. Applicants must concisely describe the occupational health problem their proposal addresses and explain how the proposed research activities will lead to outputs that help address this problem. Applicants should clearly describe the expected impacts of the proposed research, both during the project period and beyond.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) supports research to develop, implement, monitor, and evaluate technology-driven and cost-effective tools that reduce the global human rabies burden. It also measures progress toward canine rabies elimination, with an emphasis on high-burden countries. Priority research areas include: Electronic systems for tracking human and dog rabies vaccinations. Managing human rabies exposure investigations. Enhancing rabies laboratory information management systems. Modeling the economic impact of dog-mediated rabies interventions. Estimating rabies-susceptible dog populations. The research is intended to generate data-driven strategies that help accelerate progress toward global canine rabies elimination and protect public health.

This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) will help build a workforce that's prepared to collect and use high-quality cancer data. This work is essential to understand the impact of cancer and inform public health action, research, and policy. This NOFO will support the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) by: Strengthening the cancer surveillance workforce. Improving NPCR cancer data quality and completeness. Promoting the value and use of NPCR cancer surveillance data. The recipient will support certified Oncology Data Specialists (ODS) and other cancer surveillance professionals with education, credentialing, and professional development. These activities are intended to ensure the cancer surveillance workforce has the knowledge, skills, and resources to meet emerging needs and new technologies. The recipient will develop, maintain, and advance best practices, tools, and partnerships that support NPCR priorities and ensure timely, complete, and high-quality NPCR cancer surveillance data. This includes improving access to the expertise of ODS through technical assistance and guidance for NPCR registries and staff. In addition, the recipient will strengthen collaboration and communication strategies to promote the value and use of NPCR cancer surveillance data. The goal of these efforts is to help more people recognize that NPCR cancer surveillance data is a valuable resource for cancer research and public health decision-making. As a cooperative agreement, CDC will work closely with the recipient to provide technical assistance, support coordination with NPCR and partners, monitor progress, and help ensure a prepared cancer surveillance workforce that can meet current and future public health needs.
