## What the grant funds

This is an RFA for the NIH Common Fund Human Virome Program (HVP). The Common Fund HVP aims to extensively characterize the human virome and create tools, models, methods that will enable in-depth study of its variation in relation to host factors and its influence on health and disease. The overarching goal of this NOFO is to study interactions between the virome, human host, and microbiota. It seeks application for characterizing tissue tropism and host reservoirs for all resident viruses and to define their functional interactions within human host tissues and the microbiome.
