Please note: This opportunity is available to DC CFAR full investigator members. The announcement requires that either an early career investigator or an investigator new to HIV be the supplement PI.

Because we are only allowed to submit one application per award opportunity, we are requesting that interested applicants submit a 1-page concept sheet to us by March 30. These will be reviewed to identify applicants to develop full applications for submission to the NIH. The deadline for invited full applications is May 7.

Concept sheets should include the following: proposed title, listing of any co-investigators and/or mentors, specific aims, background, approach, and significance of expected findings or results. Concept sheets should not exceed one page, single spaced, and should be submitted to [email protected].

Please let us know if you have further questions.
