| Category | Call for proposal |
Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Program (PRCRP) Awards. The PRCRP Idea Award supports innovative, untested, high-risk/ potentially high-reward concepts, theories, paradigms, and/or methods in cancer research that are relevant to active duty Service members, Veterans, other military beneficiaries, and the American public. The Idea Award is not intended to support a logical progression of an already established research project. The proposed research should be innovative, introducing a new paradigm, challenging existing paradigms, looking at existing problems from new perspectives, or exhibiting other highly creative qualities.
All applications for PRCRP funding must specifically address at least one of the Topic Areas as directed by Congress and have direct relevance to military health. The FY20 PRCRP Topic Areas are listed at the end of this announcement
Funding: max. $500’000
Duration: 3 years
Eligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply, and there are no citizenship restrictions. PI applicants must be independent investigators at or above the level of Assistant Professor (or equivalent).
How to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information, a preproposal narrative, and a list of collaborators and key personnel as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation) will be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can be downloaded from Grants.gov at any time.
