NIAID is offering a grant opportunity for competitive revision applications to enhance ongoing International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research (ICEMR) projects. The focus is on fostering collaborations with immunologists, and utilizing established cohorts to investigate various aspects of malaria immunology. Projects will aim to define mechanisms of protective immunity, explore strategies for inducing long-term immunity, and identify correlates of protective immunity. Applicants are required to propose new immunology research to expand the scope of existing ICEMR awards.

| Description:: | This FOA solicits competitive revision applications for active International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research (ICEMR) awards. The goal is to foster collaborations between immunologists and ICEMR investigators and utilize the established cohorts to: define the cellular and molecular events involved in the generation of protective immunity; identify possible mechanisms to induce long-term immunity; elucidate mechanisms of immune pathogenesis and protection, and mechanisms of immune-mediated interruption of transmission; and/or determine correlates of protective immunity to malaria. Applicants will propose a new immunology project to increase the research activities of a current ICEMR award (http://www.niaid.nih.gov/LabsAndResources/resources/icemr/Pages/programOverview.aspx). |
