Immune Mechanisms of Viral Control (R21): -Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will support the first phase of a two-stage program to expand understanding of the underlying mechanisms of immunity to viral infection and vaccination. The first phase to be awarded in fiscal year 2007 will use R21 exploratory/developmental grants to address key questions related to viral immunity. The second phase, planned for award in fiscal year 2009, will support a substantially larger effort involving collaborative teams funded through U01 and U19 single and multiple project cooperative agreement grants. The overarching goal is to address key questions in viral immunity and the immunological basis of vaccination. While NIAID expects R21 awardees to generate preliminary data and establish collaborations that will facilitate highly competitive applications for the second phase of the program, R21 funding under the first phase of the program will not be a prerequisite for applications under future research solicitations. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the R21 grant mechanism. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The total amount to be awarded is $4 million. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
