Opportunity Summary:
The DoD Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP) Concept Award (Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-10-PRMRP-CA) is a U.S. Department of the Army/USAMRAA medical research funding opportunity designed specifically to back bold, unconventional ideas rather than routine, step-by-step extensions of existing projects. The central purpose of this mechanism is to prioritize innovation and novelty above all else, meaning reviewers are looking for concepts that could open up entirely new lines of inquiry, introduce a new scientific or clinical paradigm, or challenge widely held assumptions in a meaningful way. Projects are expected to be high risk by design, with the understanding that truly transformative advances often come from approaches that may not have extensive preliminary data or a predictable outcome. In practical terms, applications that look like incremental advances on already published findings, or that simply represent the next logical experiment in an established research track, are explicitly discouraged and are not considered a fit for this award.
This opportunity supports research and development within the FY10 PRMRP topic areas of interest, emphasizing potentially high-gain studies that bring uniquely creative perspectives to existing medical problems relevant to military medical needs. The award can be made as either a grant or a cooperative agreement under the broader category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting the program's intent to fund early-stage but potentially game-changing concepts. The total estimated funding for the competition is about $3.7 million, with an expectation of roughly 33 awards, indicating many awards may be relatively modest in size and aimed at testing or proving out new ideas rather than supporting large, multi-year programs that are already well underway.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the program is open to any type of applicant organization or entity, subject to any additional eligibility notes that might appear in the full announcement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for participation and allows applicants to propose ambitious early-stage work without needing institutional matching funds. The opportunity was posted on January 29, 2010, with an application closing date of April 8, 2010, and it was archived on May 8, 2010. The CFDA number associated with this program is 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development), and the administering agency is the Department of the Army through USAMRAA.
For applicant support and technical issues, the announcement provides multiple help contacts, including PA HELP at 301-619-7079 (cdmrp.pa@amedd.army.mil) for difficulties accessing the announcement, eReceipt HELP at 301-682-5507 (help@cdmrp.org), and the CDMRP Help Desk.
