Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CK 20 004
The Prevention Epicenters Program: Protecting Patients from Infections, Antibiotic Resistance and Other Adverse Events is a CDC funding opportunity designed to build and sustain a collaborative research network focused on improving patient safety across U.S. healthcare settings. The central idea is to connect and coordinate experts who work on healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and antibiotic resistance (AR) so they can rapidly respond to research priorities that matter most for protecting patients. Through this shared infrastructure, the program aims to move promising findings from basic science, epidemiology, and technology into practical, evidence-based strategies that prevent infections, slow the spread of resistant organisms, and reduce other harmful events that occur during healthcare.
This opportunity is offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and is administered through the CDC electronic research administration (ERA) system. It is a discretionary grant made as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means recipients are expected to work closely with CDC staff during the project period. In practice, that cooperative structure is used for programs where federal scientific involvement and coordination across multiple sites is important, such as multi-institution research networks and projects intended to generate broadly applicable prevention approaches.
The program’s scope is explicitly broad in terms of where research can be applied, covering all types of healthcare facilities in the United States. That includes acute-care hospitals as well as other environments where patients receive care and where infections and resistant organisms can be introduced or transmitted. The work supported is oriented toward translation: not only generating knowledge, but turning discoveries into prevention tools, strategies, or practices that can be adopted in real-world clinical operations to reduce HAIs, address AR threats, and prevent related adverse outcomes.
Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number RFA CK 20 004 and CFDA number 93.084, with the funding activity categorized under Health. The anticipated maximum award amount is listed with an award ceiling of $600,000, and the CDC expected to make approximately 11 awards under this announcement. The opportunity was created on December 20, 2019, with an original closing date of March 10, 2020. Applications were required to be submitted electronically, with the deadline specified as no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
Eligibility is intentionally expansive to support participation from a wide range of institutions capable of conducting or supporting applied public health and clinical research. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; Native American tribal organizations other than federally recognized tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories). This wide eligibility reflects the program’s emphasis on building a network that can draw on diverse expertise and settings, including academic, governmental, and community-based organizations that are positioned to study and improve infection prevention and antibiotic resistance mitigation in healthcare.Apply for RFA CK 20 004
