NIH CFAR Administrative Supplements

The DC CFAR promotes periodic NIH CFAR Administrative Supplement opportunities to our membership when we are made aware of them. These supplements are offered by the NIH to spur research in high priority areas.

The center communicates open requests for applications through weekly member emails. Become a member of the DC CFAR to learn more about NIH CFAR Administrative Supplements.

DC CFAR investigators have been very successful in competing for NIH CFAR Administrative Supplements to date. A listing of all currently and previously funded investigators and abstracts of their projects are provided.

2015 Awards

Impairment of ABCA1 glycosylation as a pathogenic mechanism in Nef-induced atherosclerosis

Radoslav Goldman, PhD has received an NIH CFAR Administrative supplement to characterize the role of glycosylation in ABCA1 functionality. ABCA1 is a key anti-atherogenic factor responsible for HDL production and cholesterol efflux. ABCA1 is targeted by HIV-1 Nef, which impairs ABCA1 maturation. Maturation of ABCA1 is tightly linked to its glycosylation, but detailed characterization of the role of glycosylation in ABCA1 functionality has not been done. Dr. Radoslav seeks to close this gap in our knowledge, providing the basis for future therapeutic efforts.

Advancing Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Delivery among Black MSM in the District of Columbia

Marc Siegel, MD has received an NIH CFAR Administrative supplement to study whether a novel culturally competent clinic intervention can increase the uptake of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to prevent HIV infection in black and young men who have sex with men. This population are among the only US populations to have recently experienced a significant increase in the number of incident HIV infections.
