| Date | 22.06.2020 |
| Category | Call for proposal |
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 Accelerating Diagnostics for TBI Research Award supports high-impact, human-based development of robust diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers for chronic traumatic brain injury (TBI) as they pertain to Alzheimer’s disease and/or Alzheimer’s Disease related dementias. It is anticipated that the proposed work will qualify clinically useful biomarkers for rapid transfer to clinical practice.
This call encourages applications to consider fluid-based, imaging-based, retinal or wearable devices as potential diagnostics. Pharmacological interventions are specifically discouraged for this call. Demonstration of access to an already existing cohort or provision of a plan that demonstrates expedited participant accrual is required. All applications must be Impact-based.
Funding: max. $2’800’000
