Event details
| Date | 10.10.2018 |
| Category | Call for proposal |
Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Lupus Research Program (LRP) for 2018. The LRP Concept Award supports the exploration of highly innovative new concepts or untested theories that address important problems relevant to lupus. This award mechanism supports high-risk, high-reward studies that have the potential to reveal entirely new avenues for investigation.
The proposed research must address at least one of the FY18 LRP Focus Areas. The Focus Areas are listed at the end of this announcement.
Funding: Maximum USD $ 150’000
Duration: 3 years
Eligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply, and there are no citizenship restrictions. Investigators at the level Postdoctoral associate or higher are eligible to submit applications.
How to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information, a list of collaborators and key personnel, a letter of intent, and supporting documents 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.
Pre-Application Deadline: 10 October 2018, 5:00 p.m. EST (23:00 CET)
