Antibacterial Resistance Leadership Group (ARLG)

ARLG is a major clinical effort to address antibacterial resistance (AR) including collaborations in 19 countries and over 40 clinical research studies involving more than 20,000 volunteers. Studies include clinical testing of new drugs to treat multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, evaluating diagnostic devices in clinical settings, and optimizing treatment regimens to reduce the emergence of resistance. In 2019, NIAID renewed the program’s funding, providing up to $102.5 million over 7 years.

Centers of Excellence for Translational Research (CETR)

NIAID-supported translational activities range from very early discovery-based efforts to late-stage preclinical development.

Collaborative Influenza Vaccine Innovation Centers (CIVICs)

NIAID CIVICs is a network of research centers that work together to develop more durable, broadly protective and longer-lasting influenza vaccines.

Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator (CARB-X)

The Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Biopharmaceutical Accelerator global partnership was created by NIAID to address antibiotic resistance. 

Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Interdisciplinary Research Units (CARBIRU)

The Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Interdisciplinary Research Units (CARBIRUs) are multidisciplinary research centers focused on bacterial pathogens for which antibiotic resistance poses a significant public health concern, as designated by the CDC’s 2019 Report on Antibiotic Resistance Threats in the United States. Each center brings together investigators from multiple disciplines to investigate non-antibiotic alternative treatment and preventive strategies, including bacteriophage, monoclonal antibodies, ligand mimetics, and defined microbial consortia; poorly understood resistance mechanisms contributing to bacterial persistence and antibiotic treatment failure; and identification and validation of novel bacterial targets for antibiotic intervention.

FEND for TB

The Feasibility of Novel Diagnostics for TB in Endemic Countries (FEND for TB) program supports the evaluation of early-stage diagnostics and novel diagnostic strategies for TB to address an urgent need for improved diagnostics.

Genomic Centers for Infectious Diseases (GCID)

The NIAID Genomic Centers for Infectious Diseases (GCID) provide insights into the biology of microbes, their role in pathogenesis, and their interactions with the host, including the microbiome, by supporting a diverse set of genomic capabilities, such as high-throughput sequencing and related genomic technologies.

Global Vaccine and Immunization Research Forum

The Global Vaccine and Immunization Research Forum (GVIRF) is a collaboration between NIAID, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the World Health Organization. GVIRF brings together the entire vaccine and immunization research community biennially to evaluate progress in research objectives of the GVAP.

Immune Mechanisms of Protection Against Mycobacterium tuberculosis Centers (IMPAc-TB)

The Immune Mechanisms of Protection Against Mycobacterium tuberculosis Centers program is an initiative established by NIAID in 2019 to elucidate the immune responses needed to protect against infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb).

Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Consortium (IDCRC)

The consortium consists of the Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Units (VTEUs) located across the US to conduct Phase 1 through 4 vaccine and treatment trials, including clinical studies in collaboration with industry partners. In addition, a consortium leadership group has been established that will include VTEU investigators as well as scientific experts in infectious diseases that will prioritize candidate vaccines, diagnostics, therapeutics and other interventions to test in clinical trials.

International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research (ICEMR)

The ICEMRS are a global network of independent research centers in malaria-endemic settings, established by NIAID to provide the knowledge, tools, and evidence-based strategies crucial to understanding, controlling, and, ultimately, preventing malaria.
