GrantCategory of Funding Activity: Science and Technology and other Research and Development CFDA Number: 12.420 Eligible Applicants Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" Agency Name: DOD-AMRAA Closing Date: Oct 22, 2013 Award Ceiling: Expected Number of Awards: 10 Creation Date: May 21, 2013 Funding Opportunity Description: The PRCRP Career Development Award mechanism was first offered in FY12. Since then, 105 Career Development Award applications have been received, and 20 have been recommended for funding. The Career Development Award supports independent, early-career investigators to conduct innovative research with the mentorship of an experienced cancer researcher (i.e., the Designated Collaborator) as an opportunity to obtain the funding, guidance, and experience necessary for productive, independent careers at the forefront of cancer research. This award supports innovative and impactful research projects with an emphasis on discovery. Under this award mechanism, the early-career investigator is considered the Principal Investigator (PI), and theapplication should focus on the PIs research and career development. It should be clear that theproposed research is intellectually designed by the PI and not a product of the established, experienced cancer researcher. Preliminary data are not required. However, logical reasoning and a sound scientific rationale for the proposed research must be demonstrated. - DoD Peer Reviewed Cancer Idea Award with Special Focus [...]

GrantCategory of Funding Activity: Science and Technology and other Research and Development CFDA Number: 12.420 Eligible Applicants Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" Agency Name: DOD-AMRAA Closing Date: Oct 22, 2013 Award Ceiling: Expected Number of Awards: 10 Creation Date: May 21, 2013 Funding Opportunity Description: The PRCRP Idea Award with Special Focus mechanism is intended to support innovative, untested, high-risk/potentially high-reward concepts, theories, paradigms, and/or methods in cancer research that are directly relevant to service members, their families, and other military beneficiaries. The proposed research project should include a well-formulated, testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale and study design. The Idea Award with Special Focus is not intended to support a logical progression of an already established research project. The proposed research project should be novel and innovative. Innovative research may introduce a new paradigm, challenge existing paradigms, look at existing problems from new perspectives, or exhibit other uniquely creative qualities. Research that is an incremental advance upon published data is not considered innovative and will not be considered for funding under this award mechanism. Inclusion of preliminary data is discouraged. The outcome of research supported by this award should be the generation of robust preliminary data that can be used as a foundation for future research projects to understand the mechanisms of initiation, or progression of cancer. This award is not intended to support ongoing research in the applicants laboratory; therefore, inclusion of preliminary data other than serendipitous findings or in very small numbers is not consistent with the exploratory nature of this award. - DoD Lung Cancer Idea Development Award [...]

GrantCategory of Funding Activity: Science and Technology and other Research and Development CFDA Number: 12.420 Eligible Applicants Unrestricted (i.e., open to any type of entity above), subject to any clarification in text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" Agency Name: DOD-AMRAA Closing Date: Oct 16, 2013 Award Ceiling: Expected Number of Awards: 1 Creation Date: May 21, 2013 Funding Opportunity Description: The LCRP Clinical Exploration Award mechanism is being offered for the first time in FY13. The intent of the LCRP Clinical Exploration Award (CEA) is to support early-phase, proof-of-principle clinical trials and correlative studies to investigate hypothesis-based, innovative interventions and/or avenues of research that have the potential to resolve current clinical barriers and result in a profound impact on the clinical management of lung cancer. While therapeutic approaches proposed for testing through the CEA must represent novel, hypothesisbased, outside-the-box approaches for treating lung cancer, they may include therapies already in clinical use, or undergoing clinical testing, for other diseases, provided that the proposed use for lung cancer would lead to a major advancement for treating the disease. It is anticipated that outcomes from studies funded by this award will provide scientific rationale for subsequent development of larger, efficacy-based clinical trials of interventions that will transform lung cancer clinical care. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at Military Medical Treatment Facilities, Military labs, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers and research laboratories are encouraged. Clinical Trials: The CEA will support clinical trials encompassing Phase 0, Phase I, or pilot Phase II for drug or drug combinations, Class II or III devices, or other types of trials that conduct early clinical testing of innovative approaches for lung cancer. - DoD Lung Cancer Career Development Award [...]

Additional information regarding this announcement is available at https://www.dodlegacy.org. Anyone may apply for Legacy Program funds, provided the proposal/project meets the funding criteria outlined in this announcement. For non-DoD applicants, all pre-proposals that involve work on a DoD installation must include a letter of support from each DoD installation/activity participating in the proposed project. In 1990, Congress passed legislation establishing the Legacy Resource Management Program (Legacy) to fund DoD efforts to conserve our natural and cultural heritage. The Legacy Program assists DoD in protecting and enhancing its natural and cultural resources while supporting military readiness. A Legacy project may involve regional ecosystem management initiatives, habitat conservation management efforts, at risk species and species of concern, development of historic contexts and models, invasive species control, support for military readiness and range sustainment, economics of historical preservation, data management, and other topics of national or regional interest. The 1997 legislation stipulates that Legacy projects must meet the following four criteria: 1. Project must have regional or DoD-wide significance and involve more than one military department; 2. Project must be necessary to meet legal requirements or to support military operations; 3. Project must be more effectively managed at the DoD level; and, 4. Project must not be an Executive Agent responsibility. The legislation also defines applicable activities eligible for Legacy funding. These include: 1. Development of ecosystem-wide land management plans. 2. Wildlife studies to ensure the safety of military operations. 3. Identification and return of Native American human remains and cultural items in the possession or control of the DoD, or discovered on land under the jurisdiction of the Department, to the appropriate Native American tribes. 4. Control of invasive species that may hinder military activities or degrade military training ranges. 5. Establishment of a regional curation sysyem for artifacts found on military installations. Three principles guide the Legacy Program: stewardship, leadership, and partnership. Stewardship initiatives assist DoD in safeguarding its irreplaceable resources for future generations. By embracing a leadership role as part of the program, the Department serves as a model for respectful use of natural and cultural resources. Through partnerships, the program strives to access the knowledge and talents of individuals outside of DoD. In order to support these principles, the Legacy Program emphasizes five themes: 1. The Program implements an interdisciplinary approach to resource stewardship that takes advantage of the similarities between DoD's natural and cultural resources programs. Often the same person is responsible for managing both natural and cultural resources plans on an installation. Legacy strives to take advantage of this by sharing management methodologies and techniques across natural and cultural resources initiatives. 2. The Program promotes understanding and appreciation for natural and cultural resources by encouraging greater awareness and involvement by the Military Departments or Services, other agencies, NGOs, and the general public. 3. The Legacy Program incorporates an ecosystem approach that assists DoD in maintaining biological diversity and the sustainable use of land and water resources for mission and other uses. 4. Additionally, the Program works to achieve common goals and objectives by applying resource management initiatives in broad regional areas. Legacy supports regionally-based projects such as the Sonoran Ecosystem Management Initiative, the Gulf Coast Plain Ecosystem Partnership, the Great Basin Initiative, the Chesapeake Bay Program, and Partners in Flight. 5. Finally, the Legacy Program pursues the identification of innovative new technologies that enable more efficient and effective management. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1997 (Public Law 104-201, Section 2694) defined mandatory criteria for funding Legacy projects. The legislation also provided the flexibility to enter into cooperative agreements with public and private agencies, organizations, institutions, individuals, or other entities to carry out the program.
