Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites research grant applications studying mechanisms of HIV-1 persistence in myeloid cells and strategies to target this reservoir in the central nervous system. Basic and translational research in domestic and international settings are of interest. Multidisciplinary research teams and collaborative alliances are encouraged but not required. RFA-MH-18-300 uses the R01 grant mechanism while RFA-MH-18-301 uses the R21 mechanism.
