Research
The ERC-CFAR provides the framework and infrastructure to support, bring together, and drive productive collaborations among the NIH-funded investigators from Einstein, Rockefeller and CUNY with overlapping expertise and research programs. As shown in the graphic, Einstein (white text), Rockefeller (blue text) and CUNY (yellow txt) investigators were funded by the NIH in FY20 with >$44M to pursue research programs that span all four OAR HIV and HIV-related research priorities, enabling us to leverage multiple opportunities for current and future synergism. The ERC-CFAR also includes dozens of ESIs focused on these HIV research priorities who are not yet NIH-funded, who are highly supported by our Developmental Core. The ERC-CFAR, with >250 members including >120 independent investigators, catalyzes and drives the increasing intersection of these NIH-funded research programs, which span basic research investigating HIV biology and pathogenesis that guides the development of novel therapeutic approaches to treat, prevent, and cure HIV infection, clinical investigations evaluating the efficacy of new treatments in patients, and genetic, environmental, and other biological or behavioral factors modulating acquisition, transmission, and disease course; and behavioral and public health implementation research to increase the equitable scale-up and impact of new and established preventative or treatment strategies.
Acknowledging the ERC-CFAR
The Centers for Aids Research (CFAR) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) requires that the Einstein-Rockefeller-CUNY–CFAR (ERC-CFAR) grant be acknowledged in all publications, presentations, and abstracts that utilized CFAR core services or that were funded in part or in full by the CFAR. The suggested acknowledgement is provided below:
This [abstract/ publication/ presentation] was made possible with support from the Einstein-Rockefeller-CUNY Center for AIDS Research (P30 AI124414) supported by the NIH co-funding and participating institutes and centers: NIAID, NCI, NICHD, NHLBI, NIDA, NIMH, NIA, FIC, and OAR.
Alternatively, you can attach the grant number to any publication or download the ERC–CFAR logo to use for posters.
All articles published in a peer reviewed journal acknowledging CFAR support are required to comply with NIH Public Access Policy. Please review the policy and ensure that your manuscript is deposited in PubMed Central (PMC). The article must be assigned a PubMed Central ID (PMCID) number, which is different from a PMID number.
NIH/CFAR awardees are responsible for ensuring manuscripts are submitted to the NIHMS upon acceptance for publication. Delays might negatively impact submission of the center’s Research Performance Progress Report or hold up funding for parent grant operations.
