The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering this grant to support critical research into the molecular mechanisms of combination adjuvants. This initiative aims to understand how two or more vaccine adjuvants function synergistically when combined. This grant is specifically for studies focused on adjuvants that have already demonstrated immune modulating activity individually. The core purpose is to advance scientific knowledge by elucidating the precise ways these combinations elicit specific immune responses. The ultimate, long-term goal of this research program is to significantly improve the rational design of future vaccines, enabling researchers to predict and tailor the immune profile generated by specific combination adjuvants, leading to more effective and targeted immunizations.

Description: | The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support research studies of two or more vaccine adjuvants (combination adjuvants) in order to understand the mechanisms by which they work in concert. All adjuvants considered must have previously demonstrated immune modulating activity. The long-term goal of this research program is to improve the rational design of vaccines by predicting the immune profile elicited by combination adjuvants. |
