UCLA AIDS Institute Research Grants
Each year the Institute makes grants to support specific projects, to fund the work of particular labs, and to cover part or all of the salaries of newly recruited faculty members. In 2005, the AIDS Institute also invested more than $600,000 in equipment for the future home of most of the Institute's basic-science laboratories, and provided funds to help cover the cost of the CARE Center's move into new, off-campus quarters. Above all else, the Institute is a center for research on all aspects of HIV/AIDS. The diversity of those activities, which range from studying how the virus behaves in the gastrointestinal tract to assessing which socioeconomic factors keep people of color from participating in clinical trials, are reflected in the following charts, which lists all of the recipients of Institute grants in the past four years.
