NIGMS National Centers for Systems Biology (P50)

The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) invites grant applications from institutions/ organizations proposing to establish Centers of Excellence in Systems Biology. The goal of this initiative is to promote institutional development of pioneering research, research training, and outreach programs focused on systems-level inquiries of biomedical and biobehavioral questions within the NIGMS mission.

Dissecting the Early HIV Immune Response: A Systems Biology Approach

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), will fund multidisciplinary teams to use Systems Biology approaches to develop a comprehensive understanding of innate and early adaptive immune responses that contribute to protection from HIV/SIV exposure or infection, or facilitate viral acquisition. Knowledge gained from these research efforts should ultimately seek to provide a foundation for the development of novel therapeutic or vaccine approaches against HIV-1. The application due date is December 1, 2009.
