DESCRIPTION:Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Pro
 gram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Peer-Reviewed O
 rthopaedic Research Program (PRCRP) Awards. The PRORP Applied Research Awa
 rd seeks applied research applications focused on advancing optimal treatm
 ent and restoration of function for individuals with musculoskeletal injur
 ies. Applicants are encouraged to address how the proposed research will s
 upport patient care closer to the point of injury and/or allow patients to
  more quickly return to duty/work. It is expected that any research findin
 gs would also provide benefit to the general population. The Award is focu
 sed on applied research\, defined as work that refines concepts and ideas 
 into potential solutions with a view toward evaluating technical feasibili
 ty of promising new knowledge products\, pharmacologic agents\, behavioral
  and rehabilitation interventions\, diagnostic and therapeutic techniques\
 , clinical guidance\, and/or emerging approaches and technologies.\n \nTo
  meet the intent of the award mechanism\, applications must specifically a
 ddress an FY20 PRORP ARA Focus Areas\, which are listed at the end of this
  announcement.\n\nFunding:        max. $725’000\n\nDuration:   
    3 years\n\nEligibility: Applicants from international organizations o
 r institutions are eligible to apply\, and there are no citizenship restri
 ctions. PI applicants must be independent investigators at or above the le
 vel of Assistant Professor (or equivalent).\n\nHow to Apply: Pre-applicati
 ons are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact 
 information\, a preproposal narrative\, and a list of collaborators and ke
 y personnel as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation
 ) will be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can b
 e downloaded from Grants.gov at any time.\n\nPre-Application Deadline: 27-
 May-2020\, 5:00 p.m. EST\nFull Application Deadline: 10-Sep-2020\, 11:59 p

 urther information\n\n	To see the program announcement\, navigate to the s
 earch page on Grants.gov and search for the Opportunity Number W81XWH-20-P
 RORP-ARA\n	For questions about the eBRAP or Grants.gov platforms\, contact
  the Research Office.\n\n\nFY20 Topic Areas\n\n\n	Limb Stabilization and P
 rotection: Development of rapid limb stabilization and novel wound protect
 ants for severely wounded limbs to enable transport at the point of need.\
 n	Retention Strategies: Development and/or optimization of diagnostic capa
 bilities\, decision support tools\, interventions\, and/or rehabilitation 
 strategies that can facilitate retention on duty for common musculoskeleta
 l injuries. Biomarker studies are excluded. The current standard of care m
 ust be noted. The rehabilitation strategy to be used in the proposed study
  must be specified\, as applicable.\n	Osseointegration: Identification of 
 best practices to address infection\, rejection\, and/or failure of percut
 aneous osseointegrated prosthetic limbs.\n
