Opportunity Summary:
The DOD FY12 Peer Reviewed Cancer Career Development Award (PRCRP CDA), funding opportunity number W81XWH 12 PRCRP CDA, is a U.S. Department of Defense grant program administered through the Department of the Army, U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). It is designed to build the next generation of cancer researchers by supporting new and early career investigators who are positioned to grow into independent leaders in cancer research. The overall goal is not only to fund a research project, but also to provide the structured support, mentorship, and career development experience that helps early stage investigators establish themselves at the forefront of the field.
A central feature of this opportunity is its emphasis on novel, innovative, discovery-oriented research aimed at improving cancer prevention, detection, and treatment. Applicants are expected to propose cutting-edge work that pushes beyond incremental advances. At the same time, every application must clearly align with at least one of the FY12 PRCRP Topic Areas, which are defined in the full program announcement. The program also sets important boundaries on what it will fund: proposals focused on breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer (with mesothelioma explicitly excluded from this lung cancer restriction), or ovarian cancer are not eligible for consideration under this FY12 PRCRP announcement.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, the award is offered as either a grant or a cooperative agreement under the broad category of science, technology, and other research and development. The program anticipated making about 9 awards, supported by an estimated total funding amount of $3,460,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development), reflecting its placement within the Defense Department medical research portfolio.
Eligibility is listed as "unrestricted," meaning it is generally open to a wide range of applicant organizations or entities, with the caveat that any additional eligibility conditions may be explained in the full text of the announcement. The posting date was April 27, 2012, and the application deadline was September 12, 2012, with the opportunity later archived on October 12, 2012. For applicants needing assistance accessing the announcement or navigating submission systems, the contact point provided is the CDMRP Help Desk (PA HELP and eReceipt HELP) at 301-682-5507 and help@cdmrp.org.
