DESCRIPTION:Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Pro
 gram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Autism Research
  Program (ARP) for 2019. The Clinical Translational Research Award support
 s early-phase\, proof-of-principle translational studies that will examine
  hypothesis-based\, innovative interventions that have the potential to ad
 dress current clinical deficits for ASD. Outcomes from studies funded by t
 his award are anticipated to provide scientific rationale for subsequent d
 evelopment of larger\, efficacy-based clinical trials of interventions tha
 t will transform ASD clinical care.\n \nProjects are required to involve 
 human subjects. Projects that are strictly animal research aimed at develo
 ping or refining new technology and research to establish the efficacy/eff
 ectiveness of diagnostic agents are not allowed under this funding opportu
 nity. The proposed studies should include early-phase\, proof-of-principle
  studies using human subjects. The proposed studies may be interventional\
 , including Phase 0 clinical trials or single-group intervention studies\,
  and may involve some retrospective data analysis\; however\, purely retro
 spective or database-related research is not allowed.\n \nApplications ar
 e strongly encouraged to address one of the ARP Clinical Translational Res
 earch Award Areas of Interest. These are listed at the end of this announc
 ement.\n \nFunding: Maximum USD $ 500’000\n \nDuration: 3 years\n \nE
 ligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions ar
 e eligible to apply\, and there are no citizenship restrictions. Investiga
 tors at the level of Assistant Professor or above are eligible to submit a
 pplications.\n \nHow to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the
  eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information\, a list of colla
 borators and key personnel\, a preproposal narrative\, and supporting docu
 ments as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation) will
  be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can be down
 loaded from Grants.gov at any time.\n \nPre-Application Deadline: 01 May

 cological therapies for ASD core symptoms or to alleviate co-occurring con
 ditions\n	Pharmacological\, genetic\, and other biological treatments for 
 ASD core symptoms or to alleviate co-occurring conditions\n	Dissemination/
 implementation of clinically validated interventions\n	Improve diagnosis a
 nd access to services across the life span\n	Interventions promoting succe
 ss in key transitions to adulthood for individuals living with ASD\n	Healt
 hcare provider-focused training or tools to improve healthcare delivery fo
 r individuals with ASD across the life span and the continuum of care (i.e
 .\, primary care\, urgent/emergent care\, and disaster relief)\n	Cultural\
 , socioeconomic\, and gender factors in diagnosis\, treatment efficacy\, d
 elivery\, and access to services\n
