Funding Applications Due September 25 and October 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 September 25 for demonstration and dissemination projects (R18) and on October 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 “Research Funding Available” on AHRQ's Healthcare-Associated Infections Program page.
