DESCRIPTION:Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Pro
 gram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Ovarian Cancer 
 Research Program (OCRP) Awards. Several award programs are available:\n\n	
 The OCRP Pilot Award supports the exploration of innovative concepts or th
 eories in ovarian cancer that could ultimately lead to critical discoverie
 s or major advancements that will drive the field forward. The outcome sho
 uld be the generation of robust preliminary data that can be used as a fou
 ndation for future research projects.\n	The OCRP Investigator-Initiated Re
 search Award is intended to support high-impact research that addresses a 
 critical need and has the potential to make an important contribution to o
 varian cancer or patient/survivor care. Research projects may focus on any
  phase of research\, from basic laboratory research through translational 
 research\, excluding clinical trials.\n\n\nAll applications for OCRP fundi
 ng must specifically address at least one of the Areas of Emphasis as dire
 cted by Congress and have direct relevance to military health. The FY23 OC
 RP Areas of Emphasis are listed at the end of this announcement.\n\nFundin
 g:       Pilot Award – max. $300K\nInvestigator-Initiated Research 
 Award – $600K - $800K\n\nDuration:      Pilot Award – 2 years\nInv
 estigator-Initiated Research Award – 4 years\n\nEligibility: Applicants 
 from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply\, a
 nd there are no citizenship restrictions. All investigators at or above th
 e level of postdoctoral fellow (or equivalent) are eligible.\n\nHow to App
 ly: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should
  contain contact information\, a letter of intent\, and a list of collabor
 ators and key personnel as suggested on the platform. Full applications wi
 ll be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Application packages can be downloa
 ded from Grants.gov at any time.\n\nGrants.gov Funding Opportunity Numbers
