Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Research Program Therapeutic Development Award. This Award will support research ranging from validation of therapeutic leads to Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies. The proposed studies are expected to be empirical in nature and product-driven. Applicants with limited ALS experience are strongly encouraged to collaborate with those having substantial expertise in ALS research and/or ALS model systems. Validation of treatment approaches in appropriately powered and controlled studies using biological correlates of disease activity and progression in pre-existing, de-identified human specimens from well-characterized patient cohorts is encouraged.
Funding: Maximum USD $1’250’000
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.
