Opportunity Summary:

The DoD Bone Marrow Failure Synergistic Idea Award (Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-09-BMFRP-SIA) is a Department of the Army/U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) funding opportunity focused on advancing bone marrow failure research by supporting genuinely new, high-impact concepts that come out of purposeful scientific collaboration. The central goal is to move the field forward by funding innovative ideas and synergistic research strategies rather than incremental follow-ons or simple continuations of work that collaborators are already doing together. In other words, the program is structured to reward fresh thinking and new problem-solving approaches that benefit from combining different expertise, methods, or perspectives.

A defining requirement of this award is that proposals must be built around a collaborative partnership involving two Principal Investigators (PIs). These two PIs are expected to bring complementary skills and viewpoints and to work in a tightly integrated way to tackle a single, clearly defined central problem or research question in bone marrow failure. The intent is not parallel projects under one umbrella, but a project where the collaboration itself creates added value, meaning the combined approach should be stronger than what either investigator could do alone. While the announcement notes that new collaborations are not mandatory, it clearly signals that forming new collaborative partnerships is strongly encouraged, reinforcing the program's emphasis on catalyzing new scientific relationships and novel directions.

From an administrative and funding standpoint, this opportunity was offered under the broader category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development, using either a cooperative agreement or grant as the funding instrument. The program anticipated making about two awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,300,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not expected to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, indicating that a wide range of applicant organizations could apply, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have appeared in the full announcement text.

Key dates for this archived opportunity include a posted date of July 30, 2009, and an original/current closing date of January 14, 2010, with an archive date of February 13, 2010. The CFDA listing associated with the program is 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development), which reflects its placement within the Department of Defense medical research portfolio.

For applicant support, the announcement provided multiple help resources, including assistance for accessing the full announcement and technical support for electronic submission systems. Points of contact included PA HELP at 301-619-7079 and cdmrp.pa@amedd.army.mil, as well as eReceipt HELP at 301-682-5507 and help@cdmrp.org, along with the CDMRP Help Desk.
