This grant, offered by the NIH Department, is designed to support milestone-driven projects focused on advancing vaccine and immunoprophylactic candidates. Its core purpose is to facilitate the discovery, proof-of-concept establishment, and preclinical development of new lead candidates. These efforts specifically target multiple antimicrobial-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens frequently encountered in nosocomial infections. Key pathogens include carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter, and MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The aim is to combat the growing threat posed by these prevalent and difficult-to-treat infections.
