NIAID Research Grant: S. aureus Alpha-Toxin Impact on T Cell Response

This opportunity is a research grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, focused on studying the molecular mechanisms by which Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) alpha-toxin impairs antigen-specific T cell responses. - Government Buyer: - National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health - Research Focus: - Investigate how S. aureus alpha-toxin (Hla) affects T cell immune response - Develop interventions to prevent S. aureus infection - OEMs and Vendors: - No specific OEMs or vendors are named in the opportunity - Products/Services Requested: - Research services in immunology and infectious disease - No specific products, part numbers, or equipment quantities are listed - Unique/Notable Requirements: - Requires expertise in immunological research, particularly involving S. aureus and T cell responses - Emphasis on molecular and cellular mechanisms - Estimated contract value: $664,076

Description

This is a research grant opportunity from NIH for a project on the immunological mechanisms of S. aureus alpha-toxin. The project aims to understand how Hla interacts with T cells and to develop interventions to prevent S. aureus infection. The research is conducted by Washington University in Saint Louis, MO, under the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). The solicitation is active with a response deadline of April 1, 2026.
