Closed SBIR Review for HIV-1 Tests

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases will hold a closed meeting on January 30-31, 2025 (11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.) in Rockville, MD (video assisted) to review and evaluate contract proposals for HHS-NIH-CDC-SBIR PHS 2025-1 Phase I and Fast Track: Rapid Diagnostic Assays for Self-Monitoring of Acute or Rebound HIV-1 Infection (Topic 139). This affects researchers and companies competing with contract proposals in that SBIR solicitation because their proposals will be reviewed at that meeting.

Confidentiality of Proposals Protected

The meeting will be closed under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(4) and 552b(c)(6) because contract proposals and discussions could reveal confidential trade secrets, commercial property (including patentable material), and personal information about individuals tied to the proposals. The closure is intended to prevent public disclosure of those business and personal details during the January 30-31, 2025 review.
