Opportunity Summary:
The FY13 Medical Tropical Research Laboratory Program (MTRLP) Infectious Disease, Vaccine, Clinical Trials, and Entomology Award (IDVCTEA) is a U.S. Department of the Army funding opportunity released through the United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). It is designed to solicit proposals that support the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) Medical Tropical Research Laboratory Program, with a clear geographic emphasis on conducting and supporting infectious disease research activities within Kenya. The central purpose is to strengthen basic, preclinical, and clinical research efforts that address tropical infectious diseases, particularly those considered militarily relevant and strategically important to the United States Military.
The opportunity prioritizes both research and operational support. In practice, that means it is not limited to laboratory science alone, but also supports the infrastructure and field activities needed to study diseases where they occur. The scope explicitly includes basic scientific research to advance understanding of pathogens and host responses; disease surveillance to track infectious disease patterns and outbreaks; training and educational programs to build scientific, clinical, and public health capacity; and entomological studies focused on vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, or other arthropods that transmit disease. A major component is support for clinical trials, including Phase 1 through Phase 3 trials, covering biologics, drugs, and devices intended to detect, prevent, or otherwise mitigate tropical infectious diseases. This makes the program broad enough to span early discovery, translational development, and later-stage evaluation in humans, while still maintaining a mission-driven focus tied to operational military health needs.
Administratively, the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, signaling substantial involvement by the government in the funded effort compared to a standard grant. The funding falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category, and it is associated with CFDA 12.420, Military Medical Research and Development. The solicitation anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding level of $49,500,000. The listing does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both shown as zero), which typically indicates that the full announcement would clarify how funding levels are structured, negotiated, or incrementally provided. Cost sharing or matching was not required. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning proposals could be submitted by a wide range of entity types, subject to any additional eligibility notes contained in the full announcement.
Key dates for the solicitation were a posted and creation date of October 11, 2012, an original and current closing date of November 25, 2012, and an archive date of December 25, 2012. The sponsoring agency is the Department of the Army, USAMRAA. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Grants Officer Wanda Harper at 301-619-8094, and an additional information link directed applicants to the USAMRAA home page.
