Grant Description

Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health (NIH), solicits Program Project Grant (P01) applications that propose systems biology analyses of early immune responses to HIV/SIV exposure or infection. The goal of the HIV Systems Biology Program is to gain a more comprehensive understanding of networks or interacting components in early immune responses to HIV/SIV in order to predict systems behavior that informs the outcome of HIV/SIV exposure or infection. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Program Project (P01) grant mechanism. Each Program Project application must consist of at least two projects sharing a common theme, focus or overall objective and an Administrative and Data Management Core. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The NIAID intends to commit $5.0 million in total costs in FY2010 to fund one to two applications in response to this FOA.
