Sept. 25/Oct. 5 Funding Deadline: Research Projects on HAI Infections and Antibiotic Resistance

AHRQ is seeking innovative research proposals for preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAI) and combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria (CARB).

Funding applications are due by Sept. 25 for demonstration and dissemination projects (R18 grants). Applications are due by Oct. 5 for large research projects (R01 grants).

HAI projects in both grant categories should demonstrate new ways to detect, prevent, and reduce HAIs. CARB projects should address ways to promote appropriate antibiotic use, reduce the transmission of resistant bacteria, or prevent HAIs.
