National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases- Training Institutional

Research Infrastructure Programs - Construction is sponsored by Department of Health And Human Services. The Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (ORIP), within the Division of Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives (DPCPSI) in the NIH Office of the Director, supports extramural biomedical research by strengthening the infrastructure that enables scientific discovery. ORIP advances human health by fostering the development of critical research models, biomaterials, and technologies; expanding access to state-of-the-art instrumentation and facilities; supporting education and training programs; and assisting small businesses in translating innovative technologies. Through its two divisions, the Division of Comparative Medicine (DCM) and the Division of Construction and Instruments (DCI), ORIP plays a critical role in accelerating biomedical research nationwide. DCM develops and sustains essential research models and biological resources, manages the infrastructure required for their use and distribution, and provides training to ensure investigators have reliable access to high-quality models and facilities. DCI supports shared, cost-effective access to advanced scientific instrumentation, modernizing research facilities, and providing critical equipment that enables transformative biomedical discoveries. Together, DCM and DCI strengthen U.S. competitiveness and ensure the biomedical research community has the infrastructure necessary to address emerging health challenges, prevent disease, promote health, and advance foundational science.
