Opportunity Number: RFA-CK-26-035
Website: https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/360199
The focus of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to produce insights into disease detection and prevention strategies, burden, severity, diagnostics, treatment, and outcomes of infectious diseases in international travelers. Timely surveillance and sentinel detection are essential for collecting actionable data.
The research should:
• Address public health questions that improve the speed of outbreak detection.
• Help develop guidelines and recommendations to improve patient care.
• Enhance understanding of the natural history of disease.
• Optimize genomic surveillance as well as diagnostic and treatment strategies. • Advance the global health security of the United States.
• This NOFO will have two components:
? Component A – Clinic-based sentinel network. ? Component B – Sentinel detection in international transportation hubs. You may apply for Component A, B, or both. If your application for both Component A and B is ranked top, Component B will be awarded.
You may submit only one application per institution. Each institution must have their own Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number.
