- Description
- NA The Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) is requesting proposals on neurofibromatosis research and training through this program announcement. Proposals will be requested in six award mechanisms: New Investigator Awards, Idea Awards, Career Development Awards, Investigator-Initiated Research Awards (with optional Nested Postdoctoral Traineeships), Therapeutic Development Awards, and Clinical Trial Awards. The Career Development Award is new in FY02; details on this award mechanism can be found in Section V. Specific information on the USAMRMC, U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA), the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP), and the DOD NFRP can be obtained from the CDMRP web site at http://cdmrp. army.mil. A copy of this program announcement and associated forms also can be downloaded from the CDMRP web site. 1. Highlights of Changes from the FY01 Program Announcement ? There is no paper submission; applicants are only required to submit their proposals electronically as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file through the Internet (electronic submission). ? The Electronic Proposal Cover Booklet is now called Proposal Information and can be found online at http://cdmrp.org/proposals. Please see Appendix C for more information. ? No paper copies of this Program Announcement will be supplied by the CDMRP. The document and its associated appendices can be downloaded from the CDMRP web site (http://cdmrp.army.mil). ? Margins for proposal preparation and acceptance have been changed to a minimum of 0.5-inch top, bottom, right, and 1-inch left. The print area must not exceed 7.0 x 10.0 inches(approximately 19.0 cm x 25.5 cm). ? A new award mechanism, the Career Development Award, is being offered. This award is intended to encourage established scientists or research clinicians who are currently working in areas other than neurofibromatosis to shift their focus to neurofibromat osis research. ? The Clinical Trial Award mechanism is no longer requesting proposals for Pilot clinical trials; only proposals for Phase 1 or 2 clinical trials may be submitted. ? The maximum period of performance for Investigator-Initiated Research Awards has been increased from 3 to 4 years. ? The Certificate of Environmental Compliance and Principal Investigator Safety Program Assurance documents have been incorporated into Appendix B and are due with the proposal submission; additional documents related to Regulatory Compliance and Quality ( RCQ)issues will be available on the CDMRP web site by April 2002. You will be notified if you need to submit these additional RCQ documents to support your submission. ? All submissions to the NFRP that involve human subjects should provide medical care for research-related injuries at no cost to the subject. Investigators should plan on budgeting for such costs. Electronic submission of proposals is due on 18 Sep 02, 1159 applicants local time.
