DESCRIPTION:Extended deadline from May 6 to May 18. \n\nAim: Through the C
 ongressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP)\, the Department 
 of Defense is announcing the Lung Cancer Research Program (LCRP) Awards. T
 he LCRP Idea Development Award promotes new ideas that are still in the ea
 rly stages of development and have the potential to yield impactful data a
 nd new avenues of investigation. This award supports conceptually innovati
 ve\, high-risk/high-reward research that could lead to critical discoverie
 s or major advancements that will accelerate progress toward eradicating d
 eaths and suffering from lung cancer.\n\nIn addition\, all applications fo
 r LCRP funding must specifically address at least one of the Areas of Emph
 asis as directed by Congress and have direct relevance to military health.
  The FY20 LCRP Topic Areas are listed at the end of this announcement.\n\n
 Funding:        max. $350’000\n\nDuration:      2 years\n\nEli
 gibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are 
 eligible to apply\, and there are no citizenship restrictions. This mechan
 ism encourages applications from independent investigators in the early st
 ages of their careers (i.e.\, within 10 years of their first faculty appoi
 ntment\, or equivalent). The New Investigator category is designed to allo
 w applicants early in their faculty appointments (Assistant Professor) to 
 compete for funding separately from established investigators. Application
 s from New Investigators and Established Investigators will be peer and pr
 ogrammatically reviewed separately.\n\nHow to Apply: Pre-applications are 
 submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact informat
 ion\, a preproposal narrative\, and a list of collaborators and key person
 nel as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation) will b
 e made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can be downlo
 aded from Grants.gov at any time.\n\nPre-Application Deadline: 06-May-2020
 \, 5:00 p.m. EST\nFull Application Deadline: 29-Jul-2020\, 11:59 p.m. EST\

 es for prevention of the occurrence of lung cancer.\n	Identify innovative 
 strategies for the screening and early detection of lung cancer.\n	Underst
 and the molecular mechanisms of initiation and progression to lung cancer.
 \n	Understand contributors to lung cancer development other than tobacco.\
 n	DoD FY20 Lung Cancer Investigator-Initiated Translational Research Award
  4\n	Identify innovative strategies for the treatment of lung cancer.\n	Id
 entify innovative strategies for the prevention of recurrence of or metast
 ases from lung cancer.\n	Develop or optimize prognostic or predictive mark
 ers to assist with therapeutic decision-making.\n	Understand mechanisms of
  resistance to treatment (primary and secondary).\n	Identify innovative st
 rategies for lung cancer care delivery (disparities/clinical management/ s
 urveillance/symptom management).\n
