Centers for Structural Biology of HIV and other Infectious Diseases

Funds multidisciplinary centres solving the 3D structures of molecules behind HIV and other infectious diseases, aimed at structure-guided design.

Between cyclesNational Institutes of HealthGlobal

Designing a new medicine or diagnostic against HIV or another infectious disease is much harder without knowing the actual three-dimensional shape of the molecules involved, and that structural work needs equipment and expertise most single labs do not have on their own.

This notice funds centres of multidisciplinary scientists whose job is determining those structures: high-resolution 3D analysi

Multidisciplinary centres determining high-resolution three-dimensional structures of molecules and molecular complexes involved in priority infectious diseases including HIV, using computational molecular dynamics and functional and mechanistic characterisation, toward structure-guided design of new medicines and tests and toward mentoring future structural-biology researchers.
