 \, systems biologists\, and network analysts from outside the field of HIV
  to address questions vital to finding a cure for HIV. Collaborations are 
 required between an HIV scientist with access to datasets relevant to HIV 
 and a data scientist from outside the field of HIV. Researchers should use
  existing datasets to identify novel:\n\n	Targetable biomarkers of the res
 ervoir\n	Intrinsic or extrinsic mediators of reservoir dynamics\n	Features
  or pre-ATI predictors of curative outcomes\, including:\n	Delay to viral 
 rebound following antiretroviral therapy (ART) withdrawal\n	Sustained cont
 rol of viral replication without the use of ART\n	Reduction in reservoir s
 ize\n	Viral eradication\n\n \nFunding:        $150’000\n \nDurat
 ion:      12 months\n \nEligibility: Principal investigators must hav
