Overview
To be funded by this program, research should focus on the development of new and improved insecticides, personal protection tools, vector surveillance tools, and decision support tools – all aimed at enhancing vector control outcomes. The research project should aim to push new technology development, contain advanced research related to specific technologies, allow both military and civilian usage, and focus on multiple target vectors.
The budget for Fiscal Year 2024 is up to $4.5 million with prospective funds available for future years. Each project can take up to three years and will not exceed a total cost of $975,000. Fund disposition should commence between August and October 2024.
Eligible institutions include any profit or non-profit entities including universities, hospitals, laboratories, state and federal agencies, and private and public organizations. However, the program does not support basic research, certain types of human medical research, certain types of toxicity testing, manufacturing costs, and testing and evaluation of previously tested or commercial products.
