Expanded Surveillance for Pediatric Infectious DiseasesThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is seeking to establish a network of U.S. institutions to conduct standardized, prospective surveillance of pediatric acute respiratory illness and acute gastroenteritis, with a focus on identifying and characterizing respiratory and enteric viruses among children seeking medical care. The core requirement involves active surveillance in inpatient and emergency department settings, following CDC-established protocols to enroll patients based on standardized symptom criteria and confirm viral infections using approved molecular assays. This foundational component will generate critical data on hospitalization rates, disease progression, and the effectiveness of prevention tools such as vaccines for influenza, rotavirus, and respiratory syncytial virus. Optional components allow recipients to extend surveillance to outpatient clinics and conduct supplementary research on immune response to infection and immunization, enhancing the depth of biological and epidemiological insights. The network’s findings are intended to directly inform public health policy, improve diagnostic and treatment guidelines, and shape recommendations for prevention products to reduce the burden of viral illness in children. Outcomes will support evidence-based strategies to lower healthcare utilization and hospitalizations among pediatric populations. Applications must include the core component, with the option to add one or more supplementary components to expand scope. The opportunity is posted under the title Expanded Surveillance for Pediatric Infectious Diseases, classified under NAICS code 541715, with point of contact available through the CDC for procedural inquiries. The funding opportunity is forecasted for release in July 2026, targeting institutions capable of sustained, high-quality clinical data collection and analysis in alignment with national public health priorities.
