Synopsis
CDC has a need and opportunity to emphasize collaborative development of Ebola projects by a group of academic leaders who have demonstrated success in treating Ebola patients as well as training US health care facilities to treat HAI and Ebola patients. The intent is to have such experts with experience and implementation capacities unique to that program, distinct from all other health care institution opportunities. CDC experience has been that having several leaders who have laid the foundation to develop solutions has resulted in significant benefits to public health and improved national capabilities regarding HAI and Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever (EHF). This translates into an optimal return on investment of CDC's Ebola funding. The ability of the applicants to plan in advance and coordinate applications with other awardees in FOA EP-U3R-15-003 will ensure that the proposed work will be complementary, synergetic, non-overlapping and feasible to complete within the short time frame of the project. Combined with strong existing and new partnerships with federal agencies, NETEC ultimately strengthens our nation's health care and public health systems for the next emerging infectious disease threat. As the only members of this unique consortium and their associated working groups, these 3 member institutions (Emory University, the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine, and New York City Health and Hospitals/Bellevue) have unprecedented access to required facilities and expertise that no other institutions have regarding both Ebola and healthcare associated infections (HAI).
Eligibility
In addition to noted above categories, state controlled institutions of higher education may also apply. Eligible applicants are limited exclusively to the three member institutions of the National Ebola Training and Education Center (NETEC), a consortium of three healthcare institutions in the US that have successfully treated patients with Ebola virus disease: (1) Emory University, (2) the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine, and (3) New York City Health and Hospitals/Bellevue.
