This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $533,750.00 to the University of Florida to study the role of macrophages in the increased HIV risk associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV). The research aims to determine how a non-optimal vaginal microbiome affects the activation and "training" of macrophages towards an HIV-permissive phenotype. This will be...
This $717,285 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) will fund a large-scale investigation of the vaginal ecosystem and its potential role in preeclampsia. The project aims to uncover the microbial, metabolomic, and immune properties of the vaginal microbiome that may indicate, predispose to, or contribute to the development of preeclampsia, a serious...
This $2,170,103 Project Grant, awarded on September 16, 2024 by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), will fund a randomized controlled trial to investigate the impact of vaginal washing cessation on cervical inflammation and HIV susceptibility among women who engage in sex work in Mombasa, Kenya.

This $315,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), will be used by the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to conduct research on the interactions between the vaginal virome and bacterial vaginosis (BV), as well as the impact on HIV acquisition risk. The study aims to characterize the vaginal virome and its role in BV development and recurrence, as well as identify alterations in viral and bacterial communities associated with HIV seroconversion. Additionally, the researchers will investigate the potential impact of copper intrauterine devices on inducing prophage activity in the vaginal microbiome. The award period is from September 23, 2024 to August 31, 2026.
