Opportunity Summary:
The DOD FY11 Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Investigator Initiated Research Award (IIRA) is a Department of Defense funding opportunity released under the FY11 Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Research Program (DMDRP). Its overall vision is to extend and improve function, quality of life, and life span for people diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In practical terms, the program is looking for research that helps push the field toward better therapies and better clinical outcomes, with a strong emphasis on work that can move efficiently from promising scientific ideas into real-world clinical applications.
This award mechanism specifically supports investigator-initiated studies that make an important contribution to understanding DMD or improving patient care. The scope includes research aimed at clarifying mechanisms involved in the initiation of disease and/or its progression, as well as projects that can directly inform clinical management. A central theme is translational impact: proposed studies are expected to accelerate the development and clinical testing of new therapeutics and to deepen understanding of why therapies succeed or fail in clinical trials. In other words, the opportunity is geared toward research that helps bridge the gap between laboratory findings and patient-centered clinical advances, and that generates knowledge useful for designing, interpreting, or improving therapeutic strategies and trials.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-11-DMDRP-IIRA and is offered by the Department of the Army through USAMRAA. It falls under the Science and Technology/Research and Development category and is offered via grant and cooperative agreement funding instruments. The program anticipated making about three awards, supported by an estimated total funding level of $3.4 million. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not expected to provide additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is broadly open to a wide range of applicant organizations, subject to any additional eligibility details that may appear in the full announcement. The opportunity was originally posted on September 1, 2011, with an application deadline of January 10, 2012, and it was later archived on February 9, 2012. The associated CFDA listing is 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development).
