This grant is offered by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases to support the Cooperative Centers on Human Immunology program aiming to advance understanding of human immune responses. The grant supports studies on innate, adaptive, and mucosal immune responses to infection, vaccination, and immune-mediated diseases like allergies and autoimmunity. The program includes infrastructure development for multi-disciplinary research, public data access, and technology advancement in human immunology. Applications to continue this program are being solicited until March 28, 2018.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications to continue the Cooperative Centers on Human Immunology (CCHI) program to support studies that will advance understanding of the mechanisms regulating human immune responses. The immediate objective of CCHI is to support mechanistic and hypothesis-testing studies to understand human immunity applicable to the biodefense effort; i.e. innate, adaptive and mucosal immune responses to infection, vaccination and adjuvants. Studies on immune-mediated diseases (e.g. airway allergy, food allergy, autoimmunity, organ transplant rejection) are also of interest, as these data will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the human immune system. The program will also support the centralized infrastructure needed to promote and coordinate multi-disciplinary research in human immunology. Additional objectives are to promote public access to CCHI-supported data and metadata through public portals such as ImmPort, and to develop new technologies to support human immunology research. |
