Planning Grant for Global Infectious Disease Research Training Program (D71): This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages applications for a planning grant from institutions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to design a Global Infectious Disease (GID) Research Training Program in collaboration with U.S. institutions. The application should propose a collaborative process to design a training program that will strengthen the capacity of the LMIC institution to conduct infectious disease research. Planning grants should describe a detailed vision for a research-training program that focuses on a major endemic or life-threatening emerging infectious disease, neglected tropical disease, infections that frequently occur as a co-infection in HIV infected individuals or infections associated with non-communicable disease conditions of public health importance in LMICs.
