Description: This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications to provide an immunologic reagent resource in support of advancing and facilitating the optimal use of nonhuman primate (NHP) models in vaccine and adjuvant development and infectious and immune-mediated diseases, including transplantation. This resource will identify, obtain, develop, characterize, evaluate, produce, and distribute to the scientific community key immunologic reagents for NHP research that are not commercially available or, if commercially available, are not optimized for use in NHPs. In addition, the resource will develop and provide a public website and provide, or contribute and link to, a searchable database of information about immunologic reagents, commercial and non-commercial, that cross-react with NHP cells or proteins. The research tools generated and provided through this initiative will facilitate and accelerate NHP research targeting cures, vaccines, and treatments for immune-mediated diseases and emerging and reemerging infectious diseases.
