Investigators are encouraged to visit the NIAID website for additional information about the research mission and high-priority research areas of the NIAID (https://www.niaid.nih.gov/research/role).Only one clinical trial may be proposed in each NIAID Clinical Trial Implementation Cooperative Agreement (U01) application
