Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the 2024 Reconstructive Transplant Research Program(RTR). Several award programs are available:
- The Advanced Technology Development Award is intended to support research critical for the translation of promising preclinical findings into products focused on reconstructive transplantation. Proposed research and products to be developed may be materiel products such as drugs, biologic agents, devices, or knowledge-based products such as technical reports and clinical practice guidelines that inform clinical/operational decisions and promote evidence-based changes in clinical practice and standard of care. Proposed research may include preclinical studies in animal models, human subjects, or human anatomical substances, as well as correlative studies associated with an existing clinical trial.
All applications must specifically address at least one of the Focus Areas listed in this document.
- The Idea Discovery Award is intended to support innovative, untested, high-risk/ potentially high-reward concepts, theories, paradigms, and/or methods relevant to reconstructive transplant. The outcome of research supported by this award should be the generation of robust data that can be used as a foundation for new avenues of scientific investigation.
All applications must specifically address at least one of the Focus Areas listed in this document.
- The Investigator Initiated Research Award is intended to support studies that have the potential to make an important contribution to reconstructive transplant research, patient care, and/or quality of life. Though the RTRP Investigator-Initiated Research Award mechanism supports groundbreaking research, all projects must demonstrate solid scientific rationale with military-relevant utility.
All applications must specifically address at least one of the Focus Areas listed in this document.
