The National Institutes of Health (NIH), through the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), is inviting applications for pilot research projects focused on HIV pathogenesis. - Government Buyer: - National Institutes of Health (NIH) - National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) - Scope of Work: - Research services only; no products or equipment are being procured - Focus on biological, behavioral, and social mechanisms contributing to HIV pathogenesis - Emphasis on HIV comorbidities, coinfections, complications, and mechanisms underlying HIV reservoirs in NIDDK-relevant tissues - Studies on health-impeding social determinants of health affecting HIV outcomes are encouraged - Eligibility: - Open to nonprofits, government agencies, educational institutions, and other organizations - Unique Requirements: - Projects must align with NIH HIV/AIDS research priorities as outlined by the NIH Office of AIDS Research (OAR) - Clinical trials are not allowed under this opportunity - No OEMs or vendors are specified, as this is a grant for research services only

Description

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications for innovative basic and translational pilot research projects within the mission of the NIDDK that align with NIH HIV/AIDS research priorities. The research should focus on elucidating unique pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to HIV comorbidities, coinfections, and complications affecting organs, tissues, and processes within the NIDDK mission. Projects may also investigate biological mechanisms underlying HIV reservoirs in NIDDK-relevant tissues to develop strategies for long-term viral suppression or eradication. Additionally, studies on health-impeding social determinants of health affecting HIV-related complications or viral reservoirs within NIDDK's mission are encouraged.
