A University of California State-supported AIDS research award program--a unique state and university partnership in AIDS research.

This article describes the State-supported University of California AIDS research award program and its major accomplishments. It shows how a partnership between a University and a State resulted in the formation of a successful, efficient, and cost-effective AIDS research award program. This program provides funds for rapid testing of investigator-initiated meritorious research ideas, new drugs, and treatment modalities. Funds were also utilized to establish three AIDS Clinical Research Centers, which evolved into regional consortia that coordinate trials of new drugs and other modalities. This program succeeded in involving investigators whose efforts have led to excellent medical care, advanced technologies, and new drugs for treating AIDS and AIDS-related diseases. The University remains committed to continuing support of all areas of AIDS research, emphasizing drug and vaccine development, pediatric AIDS, and AIDS prevention studies in groups at high risk for HIV infection.
