Description
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking applications for a grant to support the secondary use of archived data and/or biospecimen collections to advance research in maternal, pediatric, and adolescent HIV. The goal of this initiative is to encourage the scientific community to utilize HIV/AIDS archived data sets and specimen collections to answer important questions about the epidemiology, pathogenesis, treatment, clinical manifestations, and HIV-associated co-infections and co-morbidities in maternal, pediatric, and adolescent populations.
• The grant will support exploratory/developmental research using archived HIV/AIDS data and specimens.
• The integration of innovative data science methods, existing research infrastructure, and interdisciplinary perspectives to generate new insights from existing datasets will be strongly encouraged.
