Investigator Initiated Extended Clinical Trial (R01)

Investigator Initiated Extended Clinical Trial (R01)

Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Number: PAR-17-056

Funding Opportunity Purpose

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for implementation of investigator-initiated clinical trials requiring an extended project period of 6 or 7 years. The trials can be any phase, must be hypothesis-driven, and related to the research mission of one of the participating ICs. Consultation with IC staff is strongly encouraged prior to the submission of the clinical trial implementation application. This FOA is not intended for support of clinical trials that do not require an extended project period of 6 or 7 years.

Activity Code: U19 Research Program – Cooperative Agreements

Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Number: RFA-AI-16-080

Funding Opportunity Purpose

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications to establish Systems Biology Centers that use systems biology approaches to build predictive models for infectious diseases. These models will be derived from hypotheses related to systems-level host/pathogen molecular interactions during infection or treatment using integrated datasets generated from a combination of high-throughput experimental approaches, including omics technologies and computational approaches. Importantly, the Centers must clearly integrate experimental approaches and computational modeling to test and validate hypotheses of significance to the infectious diseases field.

Global Infectious Disease Research Training Program (D43)

Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Number: PAR-17-057

Companion Funding Opportunity: PAR-17-058  D71 International Research Training Planning Grant

Funding Opportunity Purpose

This Funding Opportunity Announcement encourages applications for the Global Infectious Disease (GID) Research Training Program from U.S. and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) institutions. The application should propose a collaborative training program that will strengthen the capacity of an LMIC institution to conduct infectious disease research. FIC will support research-training programs that focus on major endemic or life-threatening emerging infectious diseases, neglected tropical diseases, infections that frequently occur as co-infections in HIV infected individuals or infections associated with non-communicable disease conditions of public health importance in LMICs.
