Researchers continue AIDS vaccine research with $15 million grant.
2003 OCT 8 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- A team of medical researchers from three Seattle research facilities recently received a grant of more than $15 million from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to continue the hunt for vaccines against HIV.
This 4 1/2-year grant is funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health as part of its mission to increase basic knowledge of the pathogenesis, natural history and transmission of HIV.
Dr. Shiu-lok Hu, professor of pharmaceutics in the University of Washington School of Pharmacy and head of AIDS-related research at the Washington National Primate Research Center, is the principal investigator of the four-pronged study. He will coordinate the efforts of the teams based at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC), Seattle Biomedical Research Institute (SBRI) and the UW. The researchers and their projects are:
1) Dr. Julie Overbaugh, associate director of the Division of Human Biology at Fred Hutchinson, will dissect the biological and immunological properties of viruses transmitted from mothers to infants, and identify those properties best suited for HIV vaccine development.
2) Dr. Nancy L. Haigwood, director of the Viral Vaccines Program at SBRI, will study mechanisms by which immune responses broaden during live virus infection. She will apply insights from these studies to the design of vaccine strategies to induce broadly protective immunity against different HIV strains.
3) Dr. Leonidas Stamatatos, ...
