DESCRIPTION:Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Pro
 gram (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the Epilepsy Resear
 ch Program (ERP) Awards. The ERP Quality of Life Research Award is intende
 d to support research that improves the quality of life and care for indiv
 iduals living with the symptoms of post-traumatic epilepsy\, as related to
  the ERP’s mission. Individuals living with PTE include not only those w
 ith symptoms of PTE\, but their families and/or care providers as well. Th
 e proposed work should innovatively challenge existing research paradigms 
 or exhibit high levels of creativity. This can include research in symptom
  reduction (e.g.\, cognitive\, behavioral\, function\, mood)\, resiliency 
 factors\, increasing or maintaining independence\, and support for familie
 s and care providers. Applications must be both innovation- and impact-bas
 ed.\n \nThis call offers two levels of funding: one geared toward postdoc
