Militarily Relevant Peer Reviewed Alzheimer’s Disease Research Program (MRPRA) Convergence Science Research Award

Deadline: August 19, 2015

The intent of the FY15 CSRA is to support efforts to generate research resources, tools, or novel research efforts for researchers and/or practitioners in health sciences related to the PRARP’s mission. The research impact will benefit the military, Veteran, and civilian communities. The CSRA is open to Principal Investigators (PIs) at or above the level of Assistant Professor (or equivalent) from any field or discipline who seek to bring their expertise to address the PRARP’s mission. However, as part of the application, the PI should demonstrate that the study team has experience in both TBI and AD research. Preliminary data, while not required, is encouraged.
