Summary:  The Trans-Atlantic Platform for Social Sciences and Humanities (T-AP), a collaboration between humanities and social science research funders from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, aims to enhance the ability of funders, research organizations and
 researchers to engage in transnational dialogue and collaboration. T-AP works to identify common challenges and promotes a culture of collaboration in social science and humanities research by offering joint research calls in areas of strong potential for
 international collaboration. The platform facilitates the formation of networks within the social sciences and humanities and promotes interdisciplinarity.<br>

Summary:  Due to several compounding constraints, the upcoming 2023-2024 Antarctic season will be significantly curtailed. Program officers in the Antarctic Sciences Section (ANT) will contact Principal Investigators regarding project-related changes. For the

Summary: Anesthetics are remarkable drugs that have long-enabled surgical interventions, but their inherent lack of safety necessitates careful monitoring nearly exclusively within an operating room environment. The Anesthetics for Battlefield Care (ABC) program
 will test the hypothesis that therapeutic effects of anesthetics can be uncoupled/separated from deleterious effects. ABC endeavors to produce drugs for use in traumatic injury capable of safe, unmonitored anesthesia to enable earlier life-saving interventions,
 reduce the trauma associated with battlefield-injury, and thereby improve combat casualty outcomes.<br>

Summary: This NOFO invites applications to support the planning activities necessary to develop social network interventions to promote health across the lifespan, especially in populations in which they are currently largely underdeveloped and untested (such
 as populations in mid- and late-life). Applications suited to this R34 will focus on planning activities for social network interventions for which a target interpersonal process of behavior change or social network characteristic has already been identified.
