CDC Call for Innovative AR Proposals

CDC is looking for new ways to identify and evaluate strategies to combat antibiotic resistance (AR).  The agency collaborates with multiple researchers to improve understanding of AR in healthcare facilities, in the food supply, across communities, and in the environment (surface water and soil) to determine the potential impact on human health and identify ways to protect human health. The topics change year to year based on scientific needs. 


  • International transmission, colonization, and prevention of AR pathogens
  • Develop human microbiome disruption indices relevant to AR
  • Improving antibiotic stewardship

Interested applicants should visit the full web announcement. Researchers are expected to write their own statement of work to be considered for funding.
