About this opportunity
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) seeks applicants for a cooperative agreement to support multidisciplinary, consortium-based research using precision systems biology approaches to uncover links among chronic illnesses, infectious diseases, and microbiomes; this is a forecast with no application deadline specified.
The opportunity is open to a broad range of eligible applicants: tribal governments (federally recognized and not federally recognized), public and Indian housing authorities, county and city/township governments, state governments, higher education institutions (public and private), special district governments, independent school districts, 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, for-profit organizations, small businesses, faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, U.S. territories or possessions, and non-domestic (foreign) entities.
The research must address the urgent need to understand pathways by which infections lead to chronic lifelong health issues or how long-term illnesses might predispose or exacerbate acute infections. Applicants will harness cutting-edge technologies including multi-omics, computational modeling, artificial intelligence, organoid-based validation systems, and integration of real-world data, alongside longitudinal patient cohorts and biobank data. The goal is to generate meaningful insights into disease progression and host-pathogen interactions that advance prevention and treatment strategies for both disease categories.
NIAID will evaluate proposals on scientific merit and general significance of objectives, technical adequacy of experimental design, competency of the investigator or group, adequacy of facilities and resources, necessity of budget components relative to the proposed project, and relevance to announced program objectives.
The opportunity is funded under CFDA 93.855 (Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research), authorized by Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act and 42 CFR Part 52 and 2 CFR Part 200.
Forecast synopsis
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) seeks to advance its mission by supporting multidisciplinary, consortium-based research using precision systems biology approaches to uncover links among chronic illnesses, infectious diseases and microbiomes. There is an urgent scientific and clinical need to understand the pathways by which infections lead to chronic lifelong health issues or alternatively, how long-term illnesses might predispose or exacerbate acute infections. The objective is to harness cutting-edge technologies along with longitudinal patient cohorts and biobank data for comprehensive analysis of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors leading to advances in prevention and treatment strategies for both chronic and infectious diseases. The cutting-edge technologies may include multi-omics, computational modeling, artificial intelligence, organoid-based validation systems, and integration of real-world data, alongside improved access to digital health records and advanced clinical informatics tools. The goal is to generate meaningful insights into disease progression and host-pathogen interactions. Grant authorities that allow NIAID to forecast this opportunity are as follows: Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act as amended (42 USC 241 and 284) and under Federal Regulations 42 CFR Part 52 and 2 CFR Part 200.
