What the grant funds
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to grow a network of researchers that strengthens CDC"s use of influenza modeling and forecasting to provide situational awareness, inform influenza prevention and control efforts, advance the science of influenza forecasting and modeling, and enhance communication of related findings with key partners, including state, local, and non-governmental organizations.
