FEDIX Opportunity Alert!!!
(www.rams-fie.com)

FEDIX Opportunity Alert!!! (FOA) is a free service for members of the
research community who are seeking information on grants from the Department
of Energy, the Department of Agriculture, the National Institutes of Health,
and several other federal sources.

Users can register for FOA by typing in their e-mail addresses and selecting
keywords to develop a profile of their research interests. Each day
thereafter, the system will search all new or updated announcements in the
"FEDIX" data base looking for matches to the keywords. FOA then
automatically e-mails a short introduction and the URL of each announcement
matching the user*s interests profile. The system is based on the "Grants
Keyword Thesaurus," which is the standard set of keywords used by federal
agencies.

What is FEDIX?

FEDIX provides comprehensive on-line information on federal agency
opportunities to the research and higher education communities nationwide.
With twelve federal agencies participating in our on-line service, along
with 150,000+ individual users and 220,000+ web servers, (and growing at a
rate of 5,000 new users per month) FEDIX has become the key entity bridging
the research and educational programs information gap between government and
academia in the U.S.

You can register for FOA and search FEDIX by navigating from
