NIAID - National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases

Thailand HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Clinical Trials Unit (THAI CTU) SF 424 (R&R) Other Project Information – Project Summary The Thailand HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Clinical Trials Unit (THAI CTU), current NIAID CRMS site 60338, is a collaboration between the Chiang Mai University-Research Institute for Health Sciences (CMU- RIHES) in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and the Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre (TRC-ARC) in Bangkok, Thailand. The specific aims of this application are 1) to renew the THAI CTU as a Clinical Trials Unit to provide scientific, administrative expertise, and infrastructure to conduct clinical studies developed by the four NIH HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Networks: HIV/AIDS Adult Therapeutics, HIV/AIDS Maternal, Adolescent and Pediatric Therapeutics, HIV Prevention, and HIV Vaccines; and 2) to participate in the development of clinical trials and provide four Clinical Research Sites (CRS) to conduct clinical trials proposed by the four Networks. This CTU renewal involves a change of THAI CTU Principal Investigators from "Suwat Chariyalertsak and Kiat Ruxrungtham" to “Khuanchai Supparatpinyo and Kiat Ruxrungtham". The THAI CTU and its four CRSs will contribute scientifically to the Networks and recruit HIV+ and HIV- participants to clinical studies according to HIV/AIDS research priorities: 1) HIV/AIDS adult therapeutics: 1) interventions to reduce HIV reservoirs; 2) novel and durable interventions targeting HIV treatment; 3) treatment and prevention of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant tuberculosis; 4) treatment and prevention of HIV-related, non-infectious co-morbidities; and 5) studied strategies to cure hepatitis B virus infection in people with and without HIV. High national incidence of viral hepatitis and endemicity of carriage facilitates research on HBV and HCV infections, particularly for cure of hepatitis B. 2) HIV/AIDS maternal, adolescent and pediatric therapeutics: 1) optimization of antiretroviral treatment for these populations; 2) interventions for ART-free remission; 3) treatment and prevention of tuberculosis; 4) treatment and prevention of HIV-related co-morbidities; and 5) treatment and prevention of co-infections. 3) HIV prevention: 1) evaluation of long-acting antiretroviral agents and delivery systems for pre- exposure prophylaxis; 2) evaluation of multipurpose prevention technologies for HIV, pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, and opioid dependence; 3) evaluation of broadly neutralizing antibodies for pre-exposure prophylaxis; and 4) integrated strategies for HIV prevention. 4) HIV vaccines: 1) evaluation of passive immunization to reduce HIV acquisition in adults; 2) investigation of vaccination of infants; 3) evaluation of immunological, microbiological, and diagnostic technologies for TB vaccination; and 4) research on epidemiological, behavioral, and social sciences for optimization of outcomes of HIV vaccination.

The Art of Music Project Committee

The Art of Music (AOM) project is designed to provide a series of 18 free admission musical performances that complement & coincide with the June through December Second Thursday Art Walk evenings in the West Seattle (WS). Performances run from 6 to 7:45 pm (with one break). AOM aspires to add value to the WS Art Walk & to benefit merchants, Art Walk attendees, artists, and musicians.

Black Power Unlimited

We need AIR to speak! The BPU Artist in Residence (BPU AIR) project is designed to amplify the voices and experiences of Black, brown, Indigenous, QTBIPOC, and youth (13-24) artists. We as artists have historically been marginalized and underrepresented in the arts and culture world. To address these challenges, BPU AIR will provide the space, support, and resources we need to create, display, and amplify our art and stories, cultivate community, and build sustainable careers. As part of the project, BPU AIR will participate in the monthly Central District First Friday Art Walk events. The first event will be on March 6th from 6-9 pm at Washington Hall located at 153 14th Ave, 1st Floor, Seattle, WA. The events are free and open to the public.

NICHD - Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development

Project Summary/Abstract This application is submitted in response to RFA-HD-18-011, Child Health Research Career Development Award (CHRCDA) Program to provide K12 awards through the CHRCDA mechanism to young pediatric investigators. This new application requests resources to support three pediatricians each year who hold MD or MD/PhD degrees and have completed scholarship training in a clinical subspecialty. The rationale for the program is based on the well-documented and urgent need to support mentored career development for pediatricians to enable them to become fully independent and productive basic science researchers, and the fact that the department of Pediatrics at UCSF has the vision, experience and infrastructure to train the next generation of leaders in pediatric science. Our aims are to (1) offer a structured program for training academic pediatricians, (2) foster career development and promote retention of junior faculty, (3) expose promising early career pediatricians to the intellectual richness of UCSF research and (4) promote diversity in academic pediatrics. The scholars trained by this program will bring state-of-the-art approaches to bear on diagnosis, treatment and prevention of health problems in children as well as childhood onset of adult illness. The design of this program involves harnessing the expertise of world- class basic laboratory scientists who will serve as mentors for interdisciplinary training. The basic science training program is focused around eight scientific cores: cancer, cardiopulmonary medicine, developmental biology, genetics, immunology, neurobiology, stem cell biology, and our new computational sciences core. Each core has a Director, designated faculty, and a specific didactic curriculum. The scholars, in conjunction with their mentor and Core Director, will also participate in a program of additional discipline-specific course work dependent on both the prior experience and training of the applicant and the scientific theme of the trainee’s research, which may often overlap amongst different cores. In this application, we provide evidence that the Department of Pediatrics together with the broader UCSF research community comprise an exceptional environment for preparing young pediatricians who will receive support through the CHRCDA mechanism for successful careers as basic science researchers. There are > 1,200 research laboratories and > 2,200 active research projects at UCSF, and the faculty includes 5 Nobel laureates, 64 members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 76 members of the Institute of Medicine, and 18 Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigators. This program is an investment in the future of children's health, as the diverse group of researchers we will train will harness advanced research strategies to address urgent problems that will result in new treatments to improve child health.
