Program Description
On July 4, 2026, the United States of America will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Throughout 2026, the U.S. Mission to France will commemorate this milestone, highlighting the historical and future connections between France and the United States. The Public Diplomacy Section of the U.S. Mission to France is pleased to announce this funding opportunity as part of this celebration of America’s 250th Anniversary. This is an Annual Program Statement (APS 250) that invites proposals for our year-long campaign to tell the story of America in France. It aims to support organizations in creating and developing public programs that celebrate the people, events, ideas, and legacies related to the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, and the 250 years of diplomacy and shared prosperity with France that followed. While France’s influence on the American Revolution began long before the first shots were fired with American founders like Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, James Madison, and John Adams were deeply influenced by French philosophers such as Voltaire, Montesquieu, and Rousseau. The ideas from the French Enlightenment informed the Declaration of Independence, American concepts of republicanism, rule of law, individual rights, and meritocracy were founded 250 years ago and form the basis of our shared values that endure today.

Executive Summary
The Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO) supports the development of a globally competitive U.S. energy industrial base that drives supply chain resiliency and energy security through materials and manufacturing innovation. The development of circular supply chains that enable efficient use of materials through reuse, repair, remanufacture, and recycling is important toward accomplishing these goals.1,2 Efforts to achieve a robust and competitive manufacturing sector through innovation in circular supply chains cannot be successful without: (1) a comprehensive understanding of the landscape of technical and non-technical factors that could impact the adoption of emerging technologies and (2) strong connections across the circularity field to accelerate innovations from R&D- scale to commercial practice. This NOFO seeks to establish a new accelerator which will address this need through the development of a comprehensive technical and market analysis portfolio and stakeholder engagement activities.

The Accelerator’s analysis portfolio will establish a comprehensive understanding of both technical and non-technical factors impacting the adoption of emerging technologies for circular supply chains. Technical factors of interest include the state of emerging technologies in terms of performance and cost metrics. Awareness of these technical factors requires strong understanding of the R&D landscape as well as the state of industrial practice. Non-technical factors of interest include market conditions, supply chain dynamics, policy and regulatory landscape, workforce readiness, infrastructure capabilities, among others. These non- technical market factors may be region-specific and would be critical to inform a systems-level perspective of potential barriers and pathways to widespread commercial adoption. The Accelerator will leverage understanding of technical and non-technical factors to analyze market opportunity within specific product and material market segments. This will identify specific early adopter markets and seq

Number of Applications Only one application per institution (normally identified by having a unique DUNS number or NIH IPF number) is allowed. A single consolidated, application from several institutions within the same Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the Office of Management and Budget (MSA, https://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/information-regulatory-affairs/statistic…) is strongly encouraged and preferred. A MSA consists of the county or counties (or equivalent entities) associated with at least one urbanized area of at least 50,000 population, plus adjacent counties having a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured through commuting ties (https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/metro-micro/about/glossary.html). To assist applicants in determining the boundaries of MSAs, please utilize the delineation files resource at the U.S. Census website (https://www.census.gov/geographies/reference-files/time-series/demo/metro-micro/delineation-files.html) or contact the NIDDK program staff.

Purpose
The Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases (KUH) of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) aims to reshape and refocus its Institutional Training Award (T32) program. Compared to the traditional NIDDK/KUH NRSA T32 programs, the program supported by this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will have fewer, larger Institutional Network Awards (U2C-TL1). These U2C-TL1 awards will be designed to cultivate a highly integrated cohort of people and resources to propel KUH training and research. The U2C cooperative component will coordinate and provide administrative support for the Institutional Network Award activities, while the TL1 training component will allow the institution to recruit and fund at least 5 highly competitive pre- and/or post-doctoral trainees across K-, U-, and H-mission focused research. With coordinated support from an Administrative Core, each U2C-TL1 Award is expected to:

• Enhance Career Preparation (U2C Professional Development Core). Promote interdisciplinary approaches to prepare trainees for the next step in their scientific careers by exposing them to innovative technologies and critical research resources. Develop tailored and structured educational experiences, including specific training in professional development, leadership, entrepreneurship, and mentorship.
• Increase Networking and Outreach (U2C Networking Core). Coordinate a vibrant and dynamic cohort of K, U, and H trainees, including those supported directly by the TL1 component of this award and those institutional trainees already supported by other NIH training mechanisms, such as Fellowships (Fs), Career Development Awards (Ks), Short-term Training Grants (T35s), and Education Program Grants (R25s). Support a robust mentoring environment, including active peer-to-peer and alumni networks.
• Recruit and Train Interdisciplinary Researchers (TL1 Training Core). Fund highly talented trainees from scientifically broad backgrounds via the TL1 component of this award.

Successful programs will provide an environment that will optimize the ability of trainees to conduct rigorous, ethical research to generate new knowledge, apply interdisciplinary approaches to research questions, and utilize principles of team-science to further their leadership and problem-solving skills. Programs should also support the development of a peer-to-peer network and provide ample career development resources for the community of K, U, and H trainees within the institution. Trainees who complete training under this program are expected to experience a strong, individually tailored, research foundation that permits them to communicate effectively through scientific presentations, compete for additional research support and be prepared to successfully navigate the next steps in a research or scientific career. Resources provided through the U2C activities are expected to accelerate the achievement of these milestones and enhance the establishment of a training community at the awardee institutions.

To foster a true community of trainees, applicant organizations may submit only one Institutional Network Award application. A single, consolidated application from several institutions within the same metropolitan area, that include multiple departments with a different research focus are strongly encouraged. Programs should include trainees across the entire KUH research mission. In other words, trainees may be engaged in benign kidney, urologic, or hematologic research within a single program. Institutional Network Awards applications that engage trainees across all three K-, U-, and H- disciplines are encouraged. While equal representation across these disciplines is not required, NIDDK encourages applicants to leverage available resources -- to the extent possible -- to maximize the training opportunities across K-, U- AND H- research. This may be accomplished by partnering with other departments within a given institution or by partnering with other institutions in the Metropolitan Statistical Area (if feasible). Multi-institutional applications are not required, but they are encouraged if partnership enhances the training environment and experience.

Over time, it is expected that each Institutional Network Award will actively participate in a nationwide program -- formed by the collection of individual KUH U2C-TL1 awards -- to train a cohort of researchers capable of achieving the scientific breakthroughs necessary to improve the care of people with kidney, urologic, and hematologic diseases
