    The Department of Health and Human Services is announcing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) aimed at advancing HIV service delivery through pharmacies and pharmacists. This initiative encourages research to enhance, transform, and expand HIV testing, prevention, and care services in both U.S. and global settings. The program utilizes the R01 mechanism for projects with preliminary data intending to conduct large-scale trials, while the R21 mechanism targets exploratory projects lacking such data. Eligible applicants include higher education institutions, nonprofits, and for-profit organizations, among others. The anticipated funding for FY 2025 is $11.25 million, supporting 8-12 awards. The project aims to leverage the accessibility of pharmacies to deliver comprehensive HIV care, addressing barriers like pharmacist training and collaboration with health care providers. Research priorities include integrating services for HIV and co-morbid conditions, developing training for pharmacy personnel, and exploring effective reimbursement models. With specific calls for engagement from diverse communities and innovative service delivery models, this NOFO seeks to impact public health significantly by improving access to HIV-related services, ultimately supporting the U.S. National HIV/AIDS Strategy goals for 2022-2025.
