The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to invite applications for the Centers for Research in Emerging Infectious Diseases (CREID) Network Coordination Center (CC). The CREID Network, comprised of all recipients under this NOFO and the companion NOFO [insert NOFO number here], serves to expand knowledge on re-emerging and emerging infectious diseases (re/EIDs) around the globe where outbreaks are most likely to occur while developing expertise, capacity, and readiness to address outbreak-related research. The CC will serve to advance, facilitate, and coordinate select scientific, data and resource management, communication, administrative, and leadership efforts during both outbreak and non-outbreak periods among the CREID Networks centers and stakeholders in a collaborative and cooperative fashion.
