About this opportunity
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) seeks research applications to support the NIMH HIV/AIDS Research Centers (ARC) program, including Developmental Centers (D-ARCs) and full AIDS Research Centers (ARCs). These Research Centers aim to capitalize on the coordinated infrastructure to advance high-impact, interdisciplinary HIV/AIDS research. The ARC program supports innovative research across basic, neuro-HIV, behavioral and social, clinical, translational, implementation science, and data science domains. Centers are expected to foster scientific collaboration, accelerate innovation, and strengthen dissemination of research advances to implementing agencies, affected communities, and other stakeholders.
Applications should align with the National HIV/AIDS Strategy, the NIH Office of AIDS Research (OAR) Strategic Plan, and the NIMH Strategic Plan for HIV research. Applications are not being solicited at this time. This notice is being issued to provide potential applicants with ample time to develop strong, collaborative, and responsive project plans. Research teams that have expertise in establishing and sustaining collaborations with academic institutions, community partners, government agencies, industry, and other scientific networks to enhance the impact of Center-supported activities are encouraged to apply to this NOFO.
