Key Information: This is a forecasted opportunity; dates and details may change.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) invites applications for support of research centers as part of the Atopic Dermatitis Research Network (ADRN). The program aims to drive advances in skin immunology and defense mechanisms by exploring differences in immune responses, structure, and function between individuals with atopic dermatitis and healthy controls. Funded centers will conduct interdisciplinary and translational research, including single-site pilot trials or observational studies, and provide opportunities for junior investigators to develop research skills and foster independence.
