This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $126,096 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research aimed at elucidating the mechanisms governing microbial competition in the gut during Salmonella Typhimurium (STM) infection. The primary goals are to identify potential STM competitors within the gut microbiota and investigate the role of...
This federal Project Grant award, identified as R01AI189569, was provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855). The award totaling $531,245.00 will fund research at Yale University focused on the structural and functional characterization of the sorting platform, a key component of the type III secretion system (T3SS) in Salmonella bacteria. Through a multidisciplinary approach involving...
This $100,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) aims to integrate wastewater surveillance and human behavior data to enhance epidemiological modeling and outbreak detection. The principal investigators at Lawrence Technological University will pursue three main objectives: (1) developing an early-warning system using wastewater and digital/social behavior data, (2) creating a...
The University of California, Davis received a $225,839 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855). The award, titled "Vaccine Induction of Salmonella-Specific Th1 Memory Cells," aims to investigate the role of tissue-resident memory CD4 T cells in providing protection against systemic Salmonella infections, and to evaluate the use of an mRNA nanoparticle vaccine...

This federal Project Grant award, valued at $771,690.00 and issued by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports research to investigate syphilis pathogenesis through genetic engineering of the syphilis-causing bacteria Treponema pallidum. The award aims to leverage new capabilities to genetically manipulate T. pallidum in order to better understand the role of antigenic variation in the...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $206,251 to Duke University to conduct research on the molecular mechanism and pathophysiology of robust STAT3 signaling during oral Salmonella Typhimurium infection. The research aims to elucidate how the Salmonella effector protein SARA hijacks and prolongs host STAT3 signaling to promote anti-inflammatory...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), will support research to model the impact of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions on reducing transmission of typhoidal Salmonella in the Indo-Pacific region. The $169,035 award, with a start date of September 11, 2024 and an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2029, will utilize data from the Revitalizing Informal Settlements and their Environments (RISE) cluster-randomized controlled trial in Indonesia and Fiji to: 1) estimate "seroincidence" as a surrogate for typhoid incidence using novel serosurveillance techniques, 2) identify typhoidal Salmonella in human and environmental microbiomes through genomic methods, and 3) develop compartmental models to predict and assess the impact of WASH interventions on typhoid transmission and disease reduction. The award recipient is The Leland Stanford Junior University, a prestigious private research institution in California experienced in conducting federal grant-funded research across infectious diseases, medical technologies, and other scientific domains.
