The NIAID-funded Bioinformatics Resource Centers provide data-driven, production-level, sustainable computational platforms to enable sharing and access to data, portable computational tools, and standards that support interoperability for the infectious diseases research community.
The Therapeutic Development Services program offers a collection of preclinical services to support the development of products intended for use in the cure, mitigation, diagnosis, or treatment of disease caused by a pathogen or certain toxins.
This is one of several programs provided by NIAID's Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases to support infectious disease product developers.
In 2014, NIAID established the Centers of Excellence for Translational Research (CETR) program. Supported translational activities will range from very early discovery-based efforts to late-stage preclinical development.
The CETR program builds on work of previous NIAID-supported research and development programs, including the Regional Centers of Excellence for Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases Research (RCE) program, and is intended to complement and enhance ongoing translational and product development activities.
Each multi-project Center is organized around specific themes that address development of a targeted medical countermeasure or technology, and related regulatory barriers.
