About this opportunity

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) seeks to advance its mission through the continued support of the Childhood Asthma in Urban Settings Clinical Research Network (CAUSE) network. The CAUSE network will support multi-site clinical studies and trials on the prevention and treatment of asthma in economically disadvantaged pediatric populations where disease burden is high. The objectives of the CAUSE network are to develop and test innovative hypotheses and strategies for asthma prevention; identify/test new treatment targets (including targets for intervention based on mechanisms of type 2 low asthma); and continue to explore the risk relationship between upper and lower airway. Using systems biology approaches, CAUSE will continue to identify disease endotypes that may be suitable targets for existing and novel therapeutic modalities. Grant authorities that allow NIAID to forecast this opportunity are as follows: Sections 301 and 405 of the Public Health Service Act as amended (42 USC 241 and 284) and under Federal Regulations 42 CFR Part 52 and 2 CFR Part 200.
