Grant Description

This effort will be executed through two separate award mechanisms, the Consortium Development Award in FY10 and the Consortium Award in FY11. Proposals for the Consortium Development Award are being requested in this program announcement. The Consortium Development Award is an infrastructure development mechanism that provides support to create a Coordinating Center and establish the necessary collaborations at potential Research Sites for the development of a multi-institutional GWI research effort. Participants in this consortium should be scientists and/or clinicians who have made significant contributions to the field of Gulf War Illness research or who have specific expertise related to the multiple symptoms associated with GWI progression. Infrastructure development includes (but is not limited to) establishing appropriate collaborations, outlining an administrative management plan, developing research management and communication plans, and devising an intellectual property plan.
