UK Vaccine Network - BactiVac Network
Project disclaimer
Description
The BactiVac Network aims to accelerate the development of vaccines against bacterial infections aimed at reducing antimicrobial use in humans and animals, relevant to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). An investment of up to £1,400,000 will fund projects in two rounds of funding that support the development of vaccines that can prevent and/or minimise the emergence and transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Partnerships of at least two organisations are a requirement of funding, with at least one partner based in the UK, and partnerships with LMIC researchers are prioritised. This grant will directly benefit people in LMICs, both from the research and the established partnerships which will then be able to apply for further substantive follow-on funding in the field. The primary aim of the funding is to support new, diverse research projects to gain preliminary data and encourage establishment of new research partnerships and allow these collaborations to build a track record, which will allow them to attain further funding. It is expected that some of these projects will fail, yet the dissemination of both positive and negative research outcomes is valuable and is expected. Funding will also support other Network activities which promote collaboration across the membership, particularly for members based in LMICs.
