Additionally, in times of a national biodefense or emerging infectious disease (EID) emergency, the NBLs may be expected to rapidly realign their activities to assist response efforts within the United States (U.S.) under the direction of NIAID.This NOFO will utilize the UC7 activity code.Applications are not being solicited at this time.
