The proposed research has been identified as involving an infectious agent that
may warrant a biocontainment safety level of BSL3 or higher, according to the
current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories
(BMBL; xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/xx/xxx/xxxxxxx/xxxx0/xxxxx0xxx.xxx). It is the

infectious agents have received appropriate training and are working in
appropriate biocontainment safety level facilities, as recommended in the
current edition of BMBL.

research must be reviewed and approved by local Institutional Biosafety
Committees, as described in the NIK Guidelines for Research Involving
Recombinant DNA Molecules
(xxxx://xxx0.xx.xxx.xxx/xxx/xxx/xxxxxxxxxx_00/XXX_Xxxxxx_xxx_0000x.xxx).
This award is subject to the Terms and Conditions of Award as set forth in the

this award by reference.
Copies of the RFA may be accessed at the following Internet address:
(xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx/xxxxx.xxxx)
As mandated in this RFA, the principal investigator should submit a performance
plan to the NIAID program official that details specific milestones and
timelines for achieving each milestone. Milestones should be linked to the
annual funding cycle and submission of the annual progress report. The plan
should include the specific criteria to be used in evaluating the degree of
progress made in achieving each milestone.
No funds may be utilized until the negotiations with the principal investigator
to establish the timelines and milestones are complete. This restriction may
only be rescinded via a revised Notice of Grant Award.
The timelines and milestones must be approved by the Program Official within 30
days from the issue date of award.
Such timelines and milestones shall be agreed upon by the principal investigator
and the NIAID program official before funds may be released.
TO receive consideration for funding of each successive year, the annual
progress report and an updated Product Development Plan must be received two
months prior to the end of the current funding period, demonstrating that the
milestones defined for that funding year have been met.
The award may be adjusted in time or funding, as necessary, if the grantee fails
to meet the agreed upon milestones.
