Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Women s Health and the Environment Breast Cancer Prevention Research" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA EH10-003E), was a CDC cooperative agreement funded under CFDA 93.070, Environmental Public Health and Emergency Response. It was posted on February 17, 2010, with an application closing date of April 16, 2010, and it was later archived on May 16, 2010. The stated purpose of the project was to advance scientific knowledge about environmental factors that may contribute to breast cancer risk, with the broader intent of supporting prevention-oriented research rather than treatment-focused work. In practical terms, the opportunity was aimed at improving understanding of how environmental exposures might influence breast cancer development and how that knowledge could inform prevention strategies.
The funding details indicate an estimated total funding amount of $350,000 for the announcement. The listing shows no specified award ceiling or floor, which often means the precise award amount and structure are governed by the cooperative agreement terms and the specific earmark direction rather than an open competitive range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility for this opportunity was not open to the general public or to a broad set of institutions. Instead, it was a directed, non-competitive funding action based on a fiscal year 2010 federal appropriation that specifically instructed CDC to award the funds to Silent Spring Institute in Newton, Massachusetts. The announcement explicitly notes that no other applications were solicited, even though the eligibility section references assistance to certain organizations and government entities listed in the full text. The key takeaway is that this was an earmark-style award where Congress directed CDC to fund a named recipient to carry out the research activity described.
Administratively, CDC was the issuing agency, and the funding mechanism was a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial programmatic involvement by the agency compared with a standard grant. For questions or trouble accessing the full announcement, the notice provided a contact point at the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO) TIMS, reachable by phone at 770-488-2700 or by email at PGOTIM@cdc.gov.
