| Category | Call for proposal |
Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Accelerating Innovation in Miliatry Medicine (AIMM) Research Award. This award will support highly creative and conceptually innovative high-risk research with the potential to accelerate critical discoveries or major advancements that will significantly impact military health and medicine. AIMM initiative funding supports novel research concepts and other efforts that initiate or enhance potential game-changers that may not be supported by other funding mechanisms or core programs. Applications using synthetic or systems biology-based approaches or focused on autonomous healthcare are highly encouraged.
The proposed research is expected to make an important and original contribution to advancing solutions relevant to military health and medicine and ultimately lead to improved outcomes for Service members, Veterans, or military beneficiaries and the general public. The ultimate impact or outcomes of projects proposed under the AIMM Research Award should help to accelerate progress in at least one of the Department of Defense (DoD) medical research program areas:
Funding: Maximum USD $350’000
Duration: 18 months
Eligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply, and there are no citizenship restrictions. Applicants must be independent investigators, but can come from any academic level.
How to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information, a list of collaborators and key personnel, a preproposal narrative, and supporting documentation 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.
