This U01 Cooperative Agreement grant is for empowering the U.S. scientific and public health communities with superior resources, knowledge, and tools. The National Institute for General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), NIH, offers this funding to improve the ability to identify and prevent the spread of diseases stemming from emerging or intentionally released pathogens. Supported projects will integrate into the Models of Infectious Disease Agent Study (MIDAS) Network, which fosters a collaborative environment for multidisciplinary scientists. The grant specifically encourages computational and mathematical research aimed at enhancing the detection, control, and prevention of emerging infectious diseases, encompassing those relevant to biodefense.

| Description: | Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute for General Medical Sciences, National Institutes of Health, encourages Cooperative Agreement (U01) applications from institutions/organizations that propose to provide the U.S. scientific and public health communities better resources, knowledge, and tools to improve their ability to identify and prevent the spread of diseases resulting from the emergence or intentional release of pathogens and their products. Research projects will become part of the Models of Infectious Disease Agent Study (MIDAS) Network. This FOA is a reannouncement of a prior FOA (RFA GM-09-001). The MIDAS Network consists of a centralized information technology resource, a Centers of Excellence component and, with this announcement, the continuation of a network of multidisciplinary scientists conducting computational and mathematical research to improve the ability to detect, control, and prevent emerging infectious diseases caused by naturally occurring or intentionally released pathogens, including those relevant to biodefense. |
