This initiative would solicit research to target gaps in our knowledge about how best to address the mental health needs of YLWH in low- and middle-income countries in ways that are easy to scale up. There are two main goals of the initiative. The first is to increase the number of mental health interventions that are tailored to the unique needs of adolescents living with HIV, both in terms of their developmental needs as well as the issues they have to attend to as a result of living with a chronic, stigmatized disease.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites research projects that seek solutions to the development, exacerbation, and ineffective management of co-occurring conditions in marginalized communities of People with HIV (PWH). Projects must be based on a syndemics (synergistic epidemic) framework with a focus on the impact of racism, marginalization, discrimination, and/or stigma and their inter-relationships with social and structural risks.

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to develop technologies to improve the delivery of pharmacological, gene editing, or other cargoes for HIV and substance use disorder (SUD) mechanistic or therapeutic research.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is widely prevalent in individuals in the reproductive age group. Globally, an estimated 1.3 million people living with HIV (PWH) become pregnant each year (UNAIDS data, 2019). With the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART), significant progress has been made in the prevention of vertical transmission of HIV. However, although ART has clear benefits in preventing vertical transmission, ART regimens are associated with higher rates of preterm birth, stillbirth, and early infant death.

The scientific objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to encourage research to delineate the role of inflammasomes in the neuropathology produced by acute or chronic drug exposure and HIV infection.

The scientific objective of this Notice of Funding Opportunity is to encourage research to delineate the role of inflammasomes in the neuropathology produced by acute or chronic drug exposure and HIV infection.

This broad RFA will support exploratory studies addressing mechanistic questions in HIV infection, replication, latency, and/or pathogenesis (including HAND) in the context of SUDs.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support multi-component, multi-disciplinary projects that address scientific questions relevant to AIDS prophylactic vaccine discovery research. Extensive evaluation of vaccine concepts in non-human primate models may be included.

The purpose of this FOA is to support the testing of enhanced models of care that optimally integrate HIV, addiction, and primary care services.

This initiative will support multilevel and multidisciplinary intervention research to improve quality of life and promote successful aging among people with HIV with HIV associated non-AIDS comorbidities across the life course from racial and ethnic and lower socioeconomic status groups.
