The HVTN relies upon the collective wisdom
and creativity of many investigators to pursue
studies that will move us closer to finding an
effective HIV preventive vaccine. As such, we
welcome the ideas of skilled investigators
regarding new studies that are not currently
being pursued. We suggest the following
steps you should take to determine if your
concept is something that can be done in
cooperation with the Mucosal Immunology Group:
-
Review the Mucosal Immunology
Group (MIG)
Scientific Agenda. Does your
concept fit into and advance the
agenda? Studies could include
those with mucosal samples
collected by you or those that
would require mucosal specimens
collected by other members of
the MIG. The MIG program is a
DAIDS sponsored program; in
general, MIG projects are
supported for one year.
- Prepare a
brief synopsis of the idea. Use
the Scientific Idea Submission
Form below to prepare a brief
description of the project. The
idea will receive an initial
review by MIG leadership to
determine if it meets the
scientific agenda criteria and
time requirements. You will be
contacted within two weeks of
submission with further details.
If
you have any questions, or
prefer to submit an attached
proposal, instead of
utilizing the submission
form, please e-mail
Mary Gross.
Attached proposals should
include the study
hypothesis, objectives,
experimental design,
specimen details, and
budgetary requirements (if
applicable).
