This grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases aims to explore the transmission modes of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), improve understanding of infection biology, and identify risk factors. The goal is to prevent KSHV transmission, subsequently reducing occurrences of Kaposi sarcoma, multicentric Castleman disease, primary effusion lymphoma, and other related illnesses in high-risk populations, particularly those living with or predisposed to HIV. Applications for this research grant close on August 16, 2018.

| Description: | The purpose of the funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to advance our understanding of the modes of transmission of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also called human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8); the biology of the initial steps of infection; and risk factors for infection to inform efforts to prevent KSHV transmission and thus prevent Kaposi sarcoma (KS), KSHV-associated multicentric Castleman disease (MCD), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and other KSHV-induced diseases in populations living with HIV or at high risk of developing HIV. |
