Opportunity Summary:

The DoD Psychological Health/Traumatic Brain Injury (PH/TBI) Applied Neurotrauma Research Award (ANRA) is a U.S. Department of Defense funding opportunity administered through the Department of the Army, U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA), under the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) umbrella. It is designed to support applied research in neurotrauma and related psychological health and traumatic brain injury problem areas that are important to military medicine, with an emphasis on turning promising scientific concepts into practical, testable solutions that could improve outcomes for Service members and other affected populations.

This award targets "applied research," meaning projects are expected to move beyond basic discovery and focus on refining concepts and ideas into potential real world solutions, while actively evaluating technical feasibility. In practical terms, the program is interested in work that helps advance promising products, pharmacologic agents, behavioral and rehabilitation interventions, diagnostic tools, therapeutic techniques, clinical guidance, or other emerging approaches and technologies. The scope explicitly allows for applications that include clinical trials, signaling that the program is open to studies that evaluate interventions in human participants when appropriate and well justified.

From an administrative and funding standpoint, the opportunity was posted on October 5, 2011, with key dates showing an original closing date of January 6, 2012, and a current closing date of February 1, 2012, with the archive date listed as February 5, 2012. The Funding Opportunity Number is W81XWH-11-PHTBI-ANRA, and it falls under CFDA 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development). The instrument types available are grants and cooperative agreements, which generally indicates the government may either provide standard grant support or maintain a more collaborative role in the project (as is typical under a cooperative agreement), depending on the nature of the work and the terms of the award.

The program anticipated making about 8 awards with an estimated total funding level of $25,500,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, described as open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that would appear in the full announcement text.

For applicants or organizations that had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the provided point of contact is the CDMRP Help Desk at 301-682-5507. This is the primary support channel referenced in the notice for access or submission-related issues.
