Notice of Funding Opportunity Description Background Although vaccines are among the most effective approaches to control viral diseases, developing a prophylactic or therapeutic HIV vaccine has proven elusive. There are no licensed vaccines for HIV. Strategies for induction of HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies will likely require repeated exposures over long periods, including immunization with distinct antigens in sequential order. Such immunization strategies will require development of technologies for controlled vaccine release. Recent advances in materials-based science, controlled release technologies, delivery systems, and immunology provide opportunities to enhance the quality, potency and durability of vaccine-induced T cell and antibody responses to HIV-1. Materials-based approaches can be engineered to improve the stability, spatiotemporal release, and presentation of multiple vaccine components; for example, by controlling the time frame and dose of vaccine delivery over days to weeks. Recent studies have shown that a slow-release vaccine is superior to bolus administration at inducing breadth, potency, and durability of antibody responses to HIV antigens by prolonging antigen exposure in the germinal centers, thereby enhancing the maturation of B cells and generating stronger humoral immune responses. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the immunological improvements observed with slow-release vaccine delivery and to translate such concepts into clinical application. It will be crucial to determine how the duration of exposure to vaccine components impacts immune cell biology, and how to calibrate vaccine release to improve responses while avoiding immune exhaustion and over-activation. Advancing safe, effective, and well-tolerated controlled release vaccines is an unmet need that may enhance vaccine effectiveness and practicality, leading to better adherence to complex regimens, fewer adverse reactions, and cost savings. Finally, iterative behavioral studies during product development to determine vaccine/provider product expectation/preferences are critical to facilitate product uptake and use.

This funding opportunity supports postdoctoral researchers conducting studies on the impact of early environmental factors on child health using a large national dataset.

This funding opportunity supports primary care centers in implementing genomic screening for common genetic conditions to improve disease prevention and care, particularly in underrepresented communities.

This funding opportunity supports research initiatives focused on non-communicable diseases related to HIV at institutions in low- and middle-income countries, encouraging innovative projects and collaborations to improve health outcomes for people living with HIV.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for research projects that address the information and practice needs of caregivers and professionals working with children who experience delays in language development, particularly focusing on diverse communities.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) seeks to foster new multi-disciplinary teams to address how HIV Comorbidities and co-infections within the missions of NIDDK and NIAID interact with viral reservoirs, potentially confounding cure strategies aimed at either sustained viral suppression or elimination from the body. These teams will mechanistically interrogate the impact of inflammation, metabolic perturbations, or other pathophysiological processes associated with these comorbidities or co-infections on reservoir dynamics, and/or the interplay of these conditions and co-infections on HIV reservoir biology in ways that are likely to interact with potential cure strategies.

This funding opportunity is designed to support research centers that focus on improving the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of intellectual and developmental disabilities through collaborative and interdisciplinary research efforts.

This funding opportunity provides rapid financial support for researchers to study health outcomes related to urgent events like pandemics, natural disasters, or sudden policy changes, allowing them to gather critical data quickly.

This grant provides funding for early stage investigators to pursue innovative and high-risk research projects involving human participants, without the need for preliminary data.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research aimed at understanding and improving treatment for schizophrenia and related disorders in individuals aged 35 and older.

This program provides financial assistance to non-profit housing developers to help homeowners in select New York counties recover from storm damage through reimbursements and repairs.

This funding opportunity supports U.S. institutions in establishing a national center to coordinate and enhance research on Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias through data collection, integration, and collaboration efforts.

This funding opportunity supports the establishment of a center to coordinate research on cellular senescence, aiming to improve health outcomes by identifying tissue-specific markers and developing new therapeutic strategies, targeting a wide range of eligible applicants including educational institutions, nonprofits, and businesses.

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to provide tailored support for early stage investigators (ESIs) to initiate basic or translational research with nonhuman primates (NHPs). These awards will allow ESIs additional funds, time to generate preliminary data, and the opportunity to establish all skills needed to set up and run an NHP laboratory independently. It is expected that these awards will thereby improve an ESIs ability to secure larger research awards (e.g., R01) and will facilitate their transition to independent tenure-track positions.
