International Collaborations in Infectious Disease Research (Icidr): Diseases caused by tropical parasites are a global health problem disproportionately affecting populations residing in less developed countries. The tropical infectious diseases research program of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is predicated on the view that we live in a global community and, therefore, the health problems of the United States cannot be separated from those of the rest of the world. NIAIDs ultimate goal in this research area is attainment of the highest standard of health for a greater proportion of the global health community through the development of new and improved vaccines, diagnostics, and treatments. Fulfillment of NIAIDs commitment to tropical infectious diseases requires the capacity to carry out research in endemic areas. The goals of the NIAID International Collaborations in Infectious Disease Research (ICIDR) program are to: support high-quality, collaborative research that will lead to or result in prevention, amelioration, and/or improved treatment of tropical infectious diseases caused by protozoa and helminth parasites; increase relevant research experience for both U.S. and foreign investigators; and facilitate and enhance scientific linkages between U.S. and foreign investigators to enhance the independent research capacity of the collaborating foreign institutions and strengthen their scientific infrastructure for further international collaborative arrangements. NIAID seeks to support research that will result in scientifically sound information that can guide relevant clinical and public health policy in endemic countries.
