The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation’s medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives.
The grant aims to solicit revision applications from NIH Centers for AIDS Research (CFARs) and Developmental Centers for AIDS Research (D-CFARs) to broaden their scope and role. The focus is on enhancing support and infrastructure for training, mentoring, and research concerning HIV and HIV-related health disparities both within the United States and globally. The funding opportunity seeks to foster an expansion of experimental approaches, promote collaborations, and incorporate diverse perspectives into CFAR and D-CFAR activities. A notable requirement is the Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives (PEDP), intending to ensure inclusivity and diversity in research efforts. Applicants are encouraged to establish meaningful collaborations and submit responsive projects, with guidance provided to assist in the preparation of proposals.
