Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Peer Reviewed Alzheimer’s Research Program (PRARP) Awards. The PRARP Innovations in Care and Support Award supports innovative and impactful research that improves the quality of life and care for individuals, families, and care providers living with the common symptoms of traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s disease, and/or Alzheimer’s disease related dementias. The proposed work should innovatively challenge existing research paradigms or exhibit high levels of creativity within the contexts of the PRARP’s mission and vision. This can include innovations and research for symptom reduction (e.g., cognitive, behavioral, function, mood), resiliency factors, increasing or maintaining independence, and support for families and care providers. All applications must be Innovation- and Impact-based.
