International Research Collaboration Award (FIRCA), last issed October 30, 1998.  
Please note that the application deadline is a receipt date and not a postmark

In addition, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is 
interested in co-funding FIRCAs which are relevant to its mission and which are

established environmental health researchers and investigators in developing 
countries with access to unique research opportunities.  This includes both 
laboratory and population-based studies on the effects of exposures to 
pollutants in air, water, food and through occupation, as well as studies of 
susceptibility factors due to genetics, age or nutritional status.
