Using Human Cell Animal Chimera Brains to Study HIV Latency and Pathology R01 - Clinical Trials Not Allowed

Funding Agency:
National Institutes of Health

 

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for pre-clinical and translational research using human cell-mice chimera animals to study HIV pathology in functional live brain environments, with the presence of abused substances. Research awards are expected to support replicable mechanistic studies that enable the advancement of translational development for the interventions and treatments of HIV-associated neurological disorders (HAND) and for the eventual eradication of HIV from brain cells containing HIV provirus.
