| African American Success Foundation (AASF) | Lydia Donaldson Tutt-Jones Memorial Research Grant | This grant provides financial support to students and professionals who conduct research to study African American success, particularly in the area of education. It is offered to encourage the building of the science of African American success by studying those attitudes and behaviors that cause people to attain academic success. Eligible subjects are psychology, education, sociology, and African American Studies. The research can focus upon early childhood education, student performance in the elementary, middle, or high school years, as well as the attitudes and behaviors that help individuals finish college and graduate school. It can also focus upon parental behaviors that contribute to student success, as well as related home and community variables that promote excellence in educational performance.

| American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) | ACLS Collaborative Research Fellowships | The aim of this fellowship program is to offer small teams of two or more scholars the opportunity to collaborate intensively on a single, substantive project in the humanities and related social sciences. Appropriate fields of specialization include, but are not limited to, American studies; anthropology; archaeology; art and architectural history; classics; economics; film; geography; history; languages and literatures; legal studies; linguistics; musicology; philosophy; political science; psychology; religious studies; rhetoric, communication, and media studies; science, technology, and medicine studies; sociology; and theater, dance, and performance studies. Proposals in the social science fields listed above are eligible only if they employ predominantly humanistic approaches (e.g., economic history, law and literature, political theory). Proposals in interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary studies are welcome, as are proposals focused on any geographic region or on any cultural or linguistic group. The fellowship supports projects that aim to produce a tangible research product (such as joint print or web publications) for which two or more collaborators will take credit. It is hoped that projects of successful applicants will help demonstrate the range and value of both collaborative research and inquiry in the humanities, and model how such collaboration may be carried out successfully. | 9/30/2010 | Fellowship - GSU-243 |
| American Psychiatric Association (APA) | Jeanne Spurlock, M.D. Congressional Fellowship | The fellowship provides all psychiatry residents, fellows, and early career psychiatrists an opportunity to work in a congressional office on federal health policy, particularly policy related to child and/or minority issues.

Additionally, the program seeks to build an interest among medical students in the field of psychiatry and in working in underserved communities. The program provides grants to medical schools for community mental health service projects that are created and managed by medical students, particularly in underserved minority communities. These projects can be new initiatives conducted in partnership with community agencies or in conjunction with ongoing medical school outreach activities. Grants will not fund services beyond basic mental health screenings and referrals. Projects addressing the needs of underserved populations will receive special consideration. Innovative, new, or replicable ideas are encouraged. | 5/1/2010 | Grant - GSU-212 |

| DOD | Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Clinical Treatment Research Amoung Active Duty Army Soldiers | U.S. Army Soldiers are enduring unyielding high operational tempo in garrison and the combat field of operations in order to keep pace with ongoing Wartime mission requirements. The high tempo and increasingly common multiple deployments present many human physical and psychological challenges (Military Health Advisory Team IV (MHAT-IV), 2006; MHAT-V, 2008) that have a rippling effect on Soldier well-being as well as Army retention and recruitment. According to seminal work by Hoge et al. (2004), an estimated 17% of active duty Soldiers screened positive for deployment-related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) post deployment to Operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom (OIF/OEF); recent estimates (MHAT V, 2008) were suggested to be within the estimated ranges. PTSD is often complicated by other behavioral health problems including depression, alcohol and other drug (AOD) use, and suicide/suicide-related behavior (e.g., Seal, Bertenthal, Miner, Sen, & Marmar, 2007). All evidence-based treatments, including cognitive-behavioral based exposure therapies (Foa, Keane, & Friedman, 2000), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy (e.g., Rothbaum, 1997; Shapiro, 2001), and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (e.g., Brady et al., 2000), are only partially effective (Friedman, Keane, & Resick, 2007). The complicated presentation of PTSD may likely contribute to the finding that existing evidence-based treatments are up to 50% ineffective in treating PTSD symptoms. | 11/24/2009 | Co-operative agreement - W81XWH-09-MOMRP-PTSDTX |
