Description

The Centers for Disease Control-GHC is offering a Cooperative Agreement grant opportunity titled "Advancing Diagnostic Network Optimization, Stepwise Laboratory Accreditation, and Integrated One Health Specimen Transport in Liberia". This grant aims to innovate, implement, and evaluate approaches to One Health laboratory diagnostic network optimization and specimen transport in Liberia. The goal is to address the inter-dependence of a comprehensive, resource-mapped, accredited national and sub-national laboratory network, the physical transportation architecture required to transfer network commodities (namely human, animal, and environmental specimens) point-to-point, and the optimization of digital communication, information, and supply chain systems necessary to sustain the network itself. The grant has an estimated total program funding of $8,500,000 and expects to make 3 awards. The application deadline is June 5, 2024, at 11:59 pm ET. For more information, please contact Shana Eatman at DGHPNOFOs@cdc.gov.
