Grant Description

This Program Announcement/Funding Opportunity is focused on applied research. Applied research is defined as work that refines concepts and ideas into potential solutions with a view toward evaluating technical feasibility of emerging approaches, technologies, and promising new products. Efforts may include hypothesis-testing and/or proof-of-concept studies in in vitro and/or in vivo models. Applied research may evaluate, mature, and/or downselect potential product candidates (drugs, biologic/vaccine constructs, or devices/systems) in vitro and/or in vivo, and may consist of preclinical safety and/or toxicity studies sufficient to support Investigational New Drug/Investigational Device Exemption (IND/IDE) applications. The FY11 Military Infectious Diseases Applied Research Award (MID-ARA) seeks applications focused on reduction of morbidity and mortality of infections of trauma-induced wounds in Wounded Warriors (combat-related wound infections). These awards are expected to yield potential health products, approaches, or technologies positioned for human testing.
