Grant Description: The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) invite applications for the establishment of multi-project Hepatitis C Cooperative Research Centers (HC CRCs). The purpose of this RFA is to foster and stimulate high-quality, multi- disciplinary collaborative research that is focused on developing tools to prevent and cure hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and disease. The goal is to generate research findings that will be directly applicable, particularly to the development of vaccines and (immune) therapeutics. This RFA calls for new approaches for the rapid utilization and validation of research findings using a combination of basic, animal model, and clinical research approaches. The HC CRCs are encouraged to engage in early translational research so as to address hepatitis C public health needs. Together, the HC CRCs will form a consortium to: 1) conduct research of direct relevance to the objectives outlined; 2) foster interactions among established hepatitis C investigators; and 3) support Pilot Projects to evaluate new promising approaches related to this RFA.
