DoD Peer Reviewed Medical Focused Program Award | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The DoD Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP) Focused Program Award (FPA), Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH-15-PRMRP-FPA, is a Department of Defense research funding opportunity administered by the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). It was released as a discretionary funding opportunity within the broader category of science and technology and other research and development, and it supports medical research and development under CFDA 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development). The announcement was posted on April 17, 2015, with an application deadline of October 28, 2015, and it was later archived on November 27, 2015.

The central purpose of this award mechanism is to accelerate progress on a high-priority medical research problem by supporting a focused, coordinated program of work rather than a single standalone project. In practical terms, the Focused Program Award is designed to tackle a critical question tied to a designated FY15 PRMRP Focused Program Award Topic Area, with the expectation that the proposed effort will be synergistic and multidisciplinary. That emphasis on synergy means the program is intended to integrate complementary expertise, methods, and project components in a way that produces an outcome greater than what separate, loosely connected projects could achieve. The award is therefore aimed at optimizing research execution and speeding movement toward solutions, particularly where complex medical challenges require coordinated contributions across disciplines.

From a funding and scale perspective, the opportunity projected an estimated total funding amount of $50,000,000 and anticipated making about 5 awards, indicating relatively large, programmatic awards compared with many typical single-investigator grants. The funding instruments listed for this opportunity include both cooperative agreements and grants. This signals that, depending on the specific award type used, recipients could be expected to engage in varying levels of coordination with the government, with cooperative agreements generally implying more substantial involvement or collaboration from the funding agency during project performance than a traditional grant.

Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional limitations or clarifications that may have appeared in the full announcement text under the eligibility section. The announcement also stated there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial burden on applicants by not requiring them to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.

For applicant support and technical assistance, the opportunity directed users who had trouble accessing the full announcement to contact the CDMRP Help Desk via help@eBRAP.org or by phone at 301-682-5507. This points to eBRAP as a relevant portal in the application ecosystem for CDMRP-managed opportunities, especially for accessing materials and resolving submission or system access issues.
