The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is forecasting a cooperative agreement opportunity for the collection of long-term data on antimicrobial use in animals, with a focus on diverse sectors such as domestic livestock, poultry, and companion animals. The primary objectives of this initiative are to gather comprehensive antimicrobial use data and to contribute to the development of data collection frameworks that support antimicrobial stewardship in veterinary settings. This funding is crucial for advancing the FDA's initiatives and the National Action Plan's objectives to enhance understanding and management of antimicrobial use in animal agriculture. Interested small businesses can apply for a share of the estimated total program funding of $600,000, with an award ceiling of $200,000 per project, and are encouraged to contact Janelle Fundersburg at janelle.fundersburg@fda.hhs.gov or 301-798-2533 for further details.
