host determinants that are relevant during stages of

infection and disease, and analyses of bacterial and

host heterogeneity on disease outcomes.

Deadline: Letters of Intent are due 30 days prior to the

of essential virulence factors of Mtb that are relevant

during various stages of infection and disease

progression; comprehensive studies to determine the

impact of phenotypic or genotypic diversity within the

infecting bacterial population on bacterial persistence,

disease progression and disease outcome; studies to

understand how bacterial metabolic or other physiologic

changes mediate the evolution of resistance and

persistence; and identication of bacterial-specic

markers that correlate with latency, progression to active

disease, persistence or high-transmission potential, to
