Product Development Services for Infectious Disease Research

Preclinical Services

The Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID) has built a comprehensive set of preclinical services to facilitate efforts to develop the next generation of vaccines, diagnostics and therapeutics for a broad array of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic pathogens, as well as novel control approaches for invertebrate vectors of public health importance. Through these in-kind services, eligible investigators worldwide get access to expertise, research materials, and state-of-the-art technologies at minimal or no charge.

Introduction

Mission Statement

The Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID) supports extramural research—basic through applied—to control and prevent diseases caused by virtually all human infectious agents except HIV (see HIV/AIDS Information for Researchers).

Overview

DMID supports product development research in a variety of ways. NIAID funding opportunities and solicitations can provide financial support for a specific research area. DMID also offers product development services for each stage of the development pathway. These services include a suite of preclinical programs that are available to the scientific community. The preclinical programs support in-kind studies, conducted by NIAID-funded contractors, to provide gap-filling information and de-risk the development process. Capabilities of the preclinical programs include synthesis and manufacturing, in vitro and in vivo testing, and safety and pharmacology studies. DMID also maintains numerous publicly available resources to help support research and development activities, such as repositories for sharing reagents and other materials. Finally, advanced development programs entering clinical trials can explore DMID’s clinical trial programs and resources.
