The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) has awarded a $483,194 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to the Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. The funding will support a 5-year project to define the protective CD4+ T cell signature that drives effective CD8+ T cell immunity against hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The project will leverage historical blood and liver samples from chimpanzees to characterize HCV-specific CD4+ T cell responses using single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial genomic analysis. This research aims to fill a critical knowledge gap on the role of CD4+ T cells in controlling HCV infection, which is key for developing an effective HCV vaccine. The award period runs from March 2025 through February 2030.
