The National Institutes of Health is offering a grant for research focusing on innate and adaptive immune responses induced by mycobacterial infection in HIV-infected and uninfected individuals. This grant aims to support studies evaluating immune responses by location and developing new assays to compare mycobacterial-specific mucosal and systemic immunological pathways. The goal is to advance Mycobacterium tuberculosis vaccine development through preclinical studies and vaccine trials. Closing date for applications is January 11, 2018.

| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support hypothesis-generating research on innate and adaptive immune responses induced by mycobacterial infection, Bacillus Calmette-Gurin vaccine (BCG), or other Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) vaccinations.Studies that include evaluation of immune responses by anatomical location in HIV-infected or uninfected individuals are of particular interest.A secondary objective of this FOA is development of new assays and technologies enabling comparison of mycobacterial-specific mucosal and systemic immunological pathways in HIV-infected or uninfected individuals that can be used to monitor immune responses in preclinical studies and vaccine trials to advance Mtb vaccine development. |
