Scaffold Proposal
The Chemistry Center for Combating Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria (CC4CARB) is a NIH NIAID lead initiative. CC4CARB is an innovative chemistry center focused on the synthesis and delivery of rationally designed focused libraries to the scientific community for use in Gram-negative antibacterial drug discovery programs. The ultimate objective of CC4CARB is to create a large collection of chemical matter specifically targeting Gram-negative antimicrobial drug discovery. Your input is a valuable component in the CC4CARB program, and your time and consideration are appreciated.

Disclaimers
Previous - Scaffold proposals submitted to CC4CARB either via email or through the electronic form will be confidential; however, compounds synthesized from accepted proposals will be made public as part of the Collection.
- RTI may delay public disclosure of the chemical structures and associated data upon request from the PI for up to 18 months. This "embargo" period shall apply equally and simultaneously to all compounds in the ILPP to which the embargo applies. See FAQs for additional details.
- A CC4CARB representative may be in contact if additional information is needed for a submitted scaffold proposal to facilitate its review through the Scientific Advisory Board.
- There is no compensation for the preparation of scaffold proposals submitted to CC4CARB; however, up to $1500.00 USD are available for the applicant's time when reviewing the ILPP associated with their scaffold.
- No basis for claims against the United States Government shall arise because of a response to this project or from the Government's use of such information. A scaffold proposal or compound request form submitted through the CC4CARB portal will be accessed and reviewed by a Scientific Advisory Board, NIH NIAID, and RTI staff.
- Information submitted through this portal will be stored on a secure RTI server, and to the extent required under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), the submitted information may be subject to public disclosure.
