initial peer review for grant and contract proposals that address an
Institute-specific need or focus



Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (DAIDS)
Division of Allergy, Immunology, and Transplantation (DAIT)
Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (DMID)
Three programmatic divisions direct and manage the extramural research
portfolio. Most of the NIAID budget supports research at academic and
research institutions outside the Institute (referred to as extramural
research) through grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements.

including:
 Asthma and allergic diseases, such as hay fever and contact
dermatitis
 Acute and chronic inflammatory disorders
 Autoimmune diseases, such as insulin-dependent diabetes
mellitus and systemic lupus erythematosus, as well as in
acquired immunodeficiency diseases, other than AIDS
 Tissue and cellular transplantation rejection and tolerance
 Development of medical countermeasures to protect against,
mitigate, and treat the effects of radiation exposure
