Site detail:

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). NIAID conducts and supports research that strives to understand, treat, and ultimately prevent the myriad infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases that threaten hundreds of millions of people worldwide.

The Institute’s mission is driven by a strong commitment to basic research and the understanding that the fields of immunology, microbiology, and infectious disease are related and complementary. NIAID research centers on the four cornerstones of its Strategic Plan — immune-mediated diseases (and immune tolerance), HIV/AIDS, emerging infectious diseases, and vaccines.
