    The 2026 NIAID Omnibus Broad Agency Announcement (HHS-NIH-NIAID-BAA2025-1) seeks proposals for research to enhance medical countermeasures against infectious diseases. NIAID, under the NIH, is soliciting innovative projects in two main research areas. Research Area 001 focuses on therapeutics, vaccines, and diagnostics for antimicrobial-resistant bacterial and fungal pathogens. It comprises three topics: developing therapeutics for severe infections caused by specified pathogens, advancing vaccine candidates against ESKAPE bacterial pathogens, and creating diagnostic technologies for identifying fungal infections. Research Area 002 emphasizes the development of direct acting antivirals targeting viruses with pandemic potential, requiring proposals for new chemical entities that reduce viral load in early disease stages. Funding estimates range from $8.5 million for Research Area 001 to $20 million for Research Area 002, with expectations of one to two and three to four awards, respectively, each contract lasting up to five years. Proposals will be evaluated independently based on technical objectives set by the NIAID, with no guarantee of contract awards. Submission guidelines mandate online proposals via the NIAID electronic platform, with no provision for acceptance through email or fax. The announcement will be available around November 22, 2024, signaling the government's commitment to advancing public health through innovative research.
