A Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) has been issued by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) to encourage early-stage innovative bioengineering projects that could lead to preclinical and translational research and potential funding from federal and non-federal sources. The program is distinct from the NHLBI Catalyze Program and is focused on investigator-initiated ideas and concepts that may eventually contribute to the Catalyze pipeline.
This NOSI invites discovery- and design-driven bioengineering research ideas that are important across the Institute and critical for future hypothesis-generating projects. Notably, this program emphasizes first-generation prototype development and initial feasibility studies. The NHLBI is interested in the development of new ideas for diagnostics, therapeutics, surgical technologies, artificial intelligence/machine learning/computational modeling tools, smart biomaterials for self-adjusting implants, molecular imaging, synthetic biology, and nanotechnologies, as applied to HLBS-related issues.
First Available Due Date: February 16, 2025

Stony Brook University, College of Business in partnership with the Center for Biotechnology and Department of Biomedical Engineering has been awarded an Empire State Development Life Science Entrepreneur Development grant to address the growing need for entrepreneurial talent in New York’s life science ecosystem. These entrepreneur development grants will help close the talent gap that has previously limited life science commercialization in the state and will develop entrepreneurs with the mix of skills and expertise needed to successfully guide innovative life science startups along the path to commercial viability.
Five graduate schools of business working in collaboration with graduate programs in the life sciences have been awarded grants of up to $500,000 each to implement a new MBA concentration or certificate in life science entrepreneurship. Collaborations between the business school and life science graduate program are critical to equipping students with the skills needed to become leaders in New York’s growing life science ecosystem.
Dr. Clinton Rubin, Director of the Center for Biotechnology commented, “We hope to build from this NYS entrepreneurship education program to train the next generation of bioscience industry leaders. these students are perfectly placed to help lift NYS biotech to the next level, and translate next generation therapeutics, diagnostics and medical devices from the academic to the business sector.”
