| CIRA FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES |
Pilot Projects in HIV/AIDS Prevention Research - CIRA's Pilot Projects Program provides seed grant resources to enable investigators to respond to rapidly evolving opportunities and advances in HIV/AIDS prevention research. We are currently seeking proposals through a new Request for Applications (RFA). Concept papers should be sent via email to Jon Atherton (jon.atherton@yale.edu) by Monday, November 3, 2008.
Community Research Partnership Program (CRPP) - This program aims to support the conduct of research by Community Based Organizations (CBOs) in collaboration with CIRA scientists, and thereby to build the research capacity of CBOs while addressing a community HIV prevention need. CIRA is currently seeking proposals for its sixth annual CRPP grant competition in HIV prevention research. CBOs must submit a short Letter of Intent describing their research idea to Leif Mitchell (Leif.Mitchell@yale.edu) by Friday, November 14, 2008.
