Opportunity Summary:

BioMosaic: Enhancing surveillance, detection, risk assessment and response activities using a mapping and visualization tool is a CDC continuation funding opportunity issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), within NCEZID (National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases). The opportunity focuses on strengthening public health capabilities by supporting the use of a mapping and visualization tool called BioMosaic to improve how surveillance data are displayed, interpreted, and used for action. In practical terms, the program is aimed at helping public health partners better see where health threats are emerging, track changes over time and place, assess risks, and support faster and more informed response decisions using geospatial and visualization methods.

This funding announcement is labeled as a continuation (OpportunityCategory: Continuation) and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally means the CDC expects to be substantially involved in the funded work, such as collaborating on technical direction, aligning the work with CDC priorities, and coordinating implementation or evaluation activities. The funding activity category is Health and the listed CFDA number is 93.084, which corresponds to a CDC public health program assistance listing. Because it is a continuation, it is typically intended to extend or supplement an existing project or previously funded effort rather than start a completely new standalone initiative. That often implies the recipient may already be operating BioMosaic-related functions or has prior CDC-supported work in this area, and the continuation supports ongoing operations, enhancements, or expanded use.

The eligible applicant category is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)." That wording signals eligibility is not limited to the standard categories (like state/local governments or universities) in the summary fields and that specific eligibility rules were provided elsewhere in the full announcement. In many CDC continuation actions, eligibility can be limited to current awardees or a narrowly defined set of partners that are already engaged in the program, so the detailed eligibility text would be important for determining who can apply.

Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number CDC RFA CK14 140403CONT16, with an original and current closing date of June 1, 2016. The opportunity was created and posted on April 19, 2016. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0 and the expected number of awards is not specified in the provided extract. In many grants databases, an award ceiling of 0 can indicate that the ceiling was not entered in the summary record, the amount is determined by the continuation award context, or funding depends on availability and final negotiations rather than a fixed maximum. Similarly, an unspecified expected awards field can reflect that the continuation is for a limited pool (sometimes even a single continuation recipient), or that the number was not populated in the excerpted record.

Overall, the opportunity can be understood as CDC support for maintaining and improving BioMosaic as a geospatial mapping and visualization capability that helps translate surveillance and other public health data into operational insights. The emphasis on surveillance, detection, risk assessment, and response suggests the funded work is meant to support end-to-end situational awareness: collecting or integrating relevant data streams, presenting them in a clear spatial and temporal context, and enabling analysts and decision-makers to identify patterns, prioritize interventions, and coordinate response activities more effectively.

What is BioMosaic in the context of this opportunity?

In this program context, BioMosaic is described as a mapping and visualization tool used to display and analyze surveillance and other public health data so partners can better understand where health threats are emerging, how they change over time and across locations, and what that means for risk assessment and response decisions.

What is the main purpose of the funding?

The intent is to help public health partners translate data into situational awareness and faster, more informed decision-making.

What kinds of public health activities does the program emphasize?

The opportunity emphasizes an end-to-end set of activities: surveillance and detection (seeing signals and trends), risk assessment (understanding potential impact and priorities), and response (supporting timely, informed decisions and coordinated actions) using mapped and visualized data.

What does it mean that this is a "continuation" opportunity?

The announcement is labeled as a continuation (OpportunityCategory: Continuation), which typically means it is intended to extend, supplement, or continue an existing or previously funded effort rather than start a completely new standalone project. It often implies that the recipient may already be operating BioMosaic-related work or has prior CDC-supported activities in this area.

What is the funding instrument for this opportunity?

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement. This generally indicates that CDC expects to be substantially involved in the funded work, such as collaborating on technical direction, aligning activities with CDC priorities, and coordinating implementation or evaluation.

Does "Others" mean anyone can apply?

Not necessarily. The summary indicates that eligibility details are provided elsewhere in the full announcement.

How many awards does CDC expect to make?

The expected number of awards is not specified in the provided extract. The description notes this can happen when the continuation is for a limited pool (sometimes even a single continuation recipient) or when the number was not populated in the excerpted record.

What types of outcomes is this program trying to support?

Based on the description, the program aims to support improved situational awareness and operational insight by helping users see where threats are emerging, track changes over time and place, assess risk, prioritize interventions, and support faster, more informed response decisions using geospatial and visualization methods.

Is this opportunity designed for new projects or existing work?

Because it is identified as a continuation, it is typically designed to support ongoing operations, enhancements, or expanded use tied to an existing BioMosaic-related effort rather than launching a brand-new standalone initiative.

What CDC center is associated with this opportunity?

The opportunity is within NCEZID, the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases.

What should applicants pay attention to regarding eligibility?

Applicants should focus on the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section referenced by the summary eligibility category, since the summary indicates eligibility is clarified elsewhere and may be limited, particularly for a continuation action.
