Funding Applications Due Sept. 25 and Oct. 5 for Research Projects on Healthcare-Associated 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). Applications are due by Oct. 5 for large research projects (R01). 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. To learn more, access the "Research Funding Available" section at the top of AHRQ's Healthcare-Associated Infections Program page.
