The National Institutes of Health is offering a grant to explore the influence of the microbiome on immune responses to HIV-1 transmission and vaccination, specifically in the gastrointestinal and genital mucosa. Research aims to uncover interactions affecting host immune function, potentially revolutionizing the development of HIV vaccine strategies. The R21 grant supports innovative projects in their early stages, encouraging risky yet groundbreaking initiatives that could significantly impact biomedical and clinical research. Closing date for applications is January 07, 2017.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to stimulate research focused on elucidating the role of the microbiome in shaping the host immune responses to HIV-1 transmission and vaccination in the gastrointestinal and genital mucosa. By understanding the positive and negative interactions of the microbiome and its relationship to host immune function, it is expected that the proposed research will lead to the development of innovative approaches to enhance mucosal and systemic responses to HIV vaccines and in the development of new vaccine strategies.
The R21 mechanism is intended to encourage exploratory and developmental research projects by providing support for the early and conceptual stages of these projects. These studies may involve considerable risk but may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on a field of biomedical, behavioral, or clinical research. |
