National Institutes of Health
The Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP) encourages grant applications aimed at developing, characterizing, or improving animal models for HIV/AIDS research or for improving access to information about or generated from the use of these specialized animal models for such research. The animal models, related biological materials, or technological tools to be developed must be broadly applicable to the scientific interests of two or more NIH Institutes or Centers (ICs) and must explore multiple body systems or evaluate diseases and processes that impact multiple body systems in order to align with ORIPs NIH-wide mission and programs as well as the research priorities of NIH Office of AIDS Research. Applications must describe the need for and the potential impact of the proposed resources on HIV/AIDS research. Applications for developing a limited number of resources or resources that will not have a broad impact on HIV/AIDS research will not be considered acceptable for this Funding Opportunity Announcement.
