Alliance to Support Integrated Food Safety System (IFSS) Activities (U2F) Clinical Trials Not Allowed

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is issued to announce the availability of a cooperative agreement to be awarded under a Limited Competition. The goal of FDA/ORA's Cooperative Agreement Program is to facilitate long-term improvements to the national food safety system by strengthening interagency collaboration, improving States' regulatory and surveillance protection programs, conducting research, and promoting the Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards (MFRPS). This will be accomplished through the provision of funding and will require extensive cooperation and coordination with FDA program offices. Effective leveraging of resources and harmonization of efforts will require collaboration with relevant initiatives, including those of federal partners, national initiatives and associations, state, and local partners.
