Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Multiple Sclerosis Medical Research Program (MSRP) Awards. The MSRP Exploration-Hypothesis Development Award supports the initial exploration of innovative, high-risk, high-gain, and potentially groundbreaking concepts in the multiple sclerosis research field. The studies supported by this award mechanism are expected to lay the groundwork for future avenues of scientific investigation. The proposed research project should be innovative. Innovative research may examine a novel paradigm, challenge current paradigms, look at existing problems from novel perspectives, or exhibit other highly creative qualities
All applications must address at least one of the Focus Areas are listed at the end of this announcement.
Funding: max. $150’000
