CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Pro
 gram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Spinal Cord Inj
 ury Research Program (SCIRP) Awards. The SCIRP Translational Research Awar
 d is intended to support to support translational research that will accel
 erate the movement of promising ideas in SCI research into clinical applic
 ations. Although not exhaustive\, some examples include demonstrating stud
 ies of pharmaceuticals and medical devices in pre-clinical systems and/or 
 clinical research on therapeutics\, devices\, or practice using human tiss
 ues or resources. Applications must include preliminary and/or published d
 ata that are relevant to SCI and support the proposed research project.\n\
 nTo meet the intent of the award mechanism\, applications must address at 
 least one of the FY20 SCIRP Focus Areas listed at the end of this announce
 ment.\n\nFunding:        max. $1’250’000\n\nDuration:      3
  years\n\nEligibility: Applicants from international organizations or inst
 itutions are eligible to apply\, and there are no citizenship restrictions
 . Investigators at or above the level of Assistant Professor (or equivalen
 t) are eligible to be named as the Principal Investigator (PI) on the appl
 ication.\n\nHow to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP
  platform. They should contain contact information\, a preproposal narrati
 ve\, and a list of collaborators and key personnel as suggested on the pla
 tform. Full applications (by invitation) will be made via a Grants.gov wor
 kspace. Full application packages can be downloaded from Grants.gov at any
  time.\n\nPre-Application Deadline: 21-May-2020\, 5:00 p.m. EST\nFull Appl
 ication Deadline: 25-Aug-2020\, 11:59 p.m. EST\n\nGrants.gov Funding Oppor
 tunity Number: W81XWH-20-SCIRP-TRA\n\nFurther information\n\n	To see the p
 rogram announcement\, navigate to the search page on Grants.gov and search
  for the Opportunity Number W81XWH-20-SCIRP-TRA\n	For questions about the 
 eBRAP or Grants.gov platforms\, contact the Research Office.\n\n\nFY20 SCI
 RP Focus Areas\n\n\n	Preserving and protecting spinal cord tissue at time 
 of injury for improved neurologic outcomes\n	Identifying and validating bi
 omarkers for diagnosis\, prognosis\, and for evaluation of treatment effic
 acies\n	Bowel\, genitourinary\, cardiopulmonary dysfunction\, and neuropat
 hic pain\n	Psychosocial issues relevant to people with SCI\, their familie
 s\, and/or their care partners\n	Rehabilitation and regeneration—Maximiz
 ing the function of the residual neural circuitry\, including harnessing n
 europlasticity and recovery to improve function after SCI\n\n\n
