The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is forecasting a cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Strengthening Multisectoral Global Laboratory Systems to Safely and Accurately Mitigate Bio Risks, Deploy Diagnostics and Sequence Pathogens to Detect, Prevent and Respond to Global Health Threats." This initiative aims to enhance global public health by strengthening laboratory systems, improving workforce capabilities, managing bio risks, and reinforcing emergency preparedness, particularly in low-resource settings. The program is critical for enhancing diagnostic capacities and ensuring effective responses to global health threats, with an estimated total funding of $25 million to support approximately five awards. Interested applicants can reach out to Shana Eatman at 770.488.3933 or via email at DGHPNOFOs@cdc.gov, with applications due by January 1, 2025, and awards expected to be announced by September 30, 2025.
