  1. In April 2007, the University of Rochester was awarded from NIAID a 7 year contract to create the New York Influenza Center of Excellence(NYICE). Welcome to the NYICE Year 5 Kickoff! The New York Influenza Center of Excellence (NYICE) is one of 5 centers that make up the NIAID CEIRS* Network *Center of Excellence Influenza Research and Surveillance Contract: HHSN266200700008C

  2. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) in April 207 funded a 7-year plan to six “Centers of Excellence for Influenza Research and Surveillance” (CEIRS) at universities and other institutions from New York City to Los Angeles. “The goal of the newly created centers is to provide the federal government with important information to inform public health strategies for controlling and lessening the impact of seasonal influenza as well as an influenza pandemic,” - NIAID Research under the NIAID contracts ranges from monitoring of Americans’ responses to flu vaccination to identification of possible targets for new antiviral drugs and testing of pigs and wild birds. Each center collaborates with a number of other agencies and institutions. The initiative builds on a program launched by the NIAID after the original human outbreak of H5N1 avian flu in Hong Kong in 1997. Contract: HHSN266200700008C
