About this opportunity

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit applications for an Infectious Diseases Clinical Trials Network (IDCTN). The IDCTN, comprised of the Clinical Trial Evaluation Units (CTEUs) and a Network Coordination Center (NCC), supports the evaluation of interventions for emerging and chronic infections. The CTEUs design and implement clinical trials and studies, while the NCC provides the administrative and operational framework for a collaborative, integrated network and engages with experts in the field to solicit and generate clinical trial concepts. The NCC and CTEUs will collaboratively create opportunities to advance investigators early in their careers and those new to the field.

Portfolio context — this listing covers more than this opportunity

This opportunity is funded under Assistance Listing 93.855 (“Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research”), a broad federal program that made about 1692 new awards per year over the last five fiscal years (median award $424k). Those figures describe that whole portfolio — not this specific solicitation, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's track record.

Applicant counts per solicitation are not published by any federal agency — no one can honestly sell you that number. NIH publishes success rates by institute and activity code — source.
