DESCRIPTION:Through the Congressionally Directed Alzheimer’s Research Pr
 ogram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Peer Reviewed 
 Alzheimer’s Research Program (PRARP) Awards.\n\nAll applications for PRA
 RP funding must specifically address at least one of the Focus Area as dir
 ected by Congress and have direct relevance to military health. Several aw
 ard programs are available:\n\n	The Transforming Care Award is responsive 
 to the Individual\, Family\, and Care-Partner Support Focus Area\, which p
 rioritizes the lived experiences of persons living with AD/ADRD. This Focu
 s Area targets research that includes\, but is not limited to\, improvemen
 ts in long-term care\, quality of life\, psychosocial wellness and support
 \, and community and home resources supporting aging-in-place and communit
 y living for individuals living with dementia\, their families\, and care 
 partners. Projects within this focus area should aim for culturally compet
 ent strategies\, that are responsive to social and structural determinants
  of health and maintain the dignity of the individual living with dementia
  and their family/care/social communities.\n\n \n\n\n	The Transforming Di
 agnosis Award is meant to address and mitigate the long-term consequences 
 of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and military service as they pertain to Al
 zheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD). To do so\, the P
 RARP executes a mission to support research to\n\n	\n		understand the asso
 ciation between TBI and other military service-related risk factors and AD
 /ADRD\, and\n		improve quality of life and reduce the burden on affected i
 ndividuals and caregivers for the military\, Veterans\, and the public.\n	
 \n	\n	Consistent with the PRARP’s mission and vision\, the program seeks
  to support transformative research on the intersection of TBI-AD/ADRD. Th
 e PRARP prioritizes efforts aimed to improve diagnosis and prognosis now 
 –including methods\, technologies\, patient access and education\, and a
 ccuracy.\n\n \n\n\n	The Transforming Research Award To meet the intent of
  the award mechanism\, applications submitted to this program announcement
  must address the FY23 PRARP TRA Prevention and Risk Reduction Focus Area.
  The proposed research may include\, but is not limited to\, exploring que
 stions in the following areas:\n\n	\n		Identification of risk factors\, in
 cluding but not limited to environmental\, genetic\, epigenetic\, and life
 style.\n		Identification and implementation of culturally competent strate
 gies to reduce AD/ADRD risk and prevent cognitive problems following TBI a
 nd/or military service.\n		Understanding the role of social determinants o
 f health in risk reduction.\n		Informational (not descriptive) epidemiolog
 y to understand environmental and other factors that contribute to develop
 ment of AD/ADRD.\n	\n	\n\n\nFunding:        Transforming Care Award:
 \n\n\n	max. $1.0 M for the base option\n	max. $1.2M in total costs for the

  Independent investigators at all career levels (or equivalent).\n	Career 
 Initiation or Transition Partnering PI Option (CITPO):\n	\n		Initiation in
 vestigators must have at least 3 years research experience beyond a termin

  position\n		Transition investigators may be at any level\, but new to eit
 her the Alzheimer’s disease/Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (AD/
 ADRD) and/or traumatic brain injury (TBI) fields\n	\n	\n\n\n\nHow to Apply
