OpportunityTitle: Vector-Borne Disease Regional Centers of Excellence
Description: The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to (1) build effective collaboration between academic communities and public health organizations at federal, state, and local levels for surveillance, prevention, and response; (2) train public health entomologists in the knowledge and skills required to address vector-borne disease concerns, and (3) conduct applied research to develop and validate effective prevention and control tools and methods and to anticipate and respond to disease outbreaks. The Centers of Excellence (COEs) to be supported by this FOA will provide regional capacity to enhance public health prevention and response for vector-borne diseases, pushing technology closer to sites of potential transmission.
