    Managed by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the funding opportunity aims to stimulate investigations including translational, epidemiologic and clinical studies that will increase scientific understanding of and treatments for high-priority perinatal infections.

    High-priority perinatal infections of interest include, but are not limited to, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex viruses, toxoplasmosis, viral hepatitis, Human T-cell lymphotropic viruses (HTLV-1/2), Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas disease), enteroviruses and parvovirus B19.
