Description:
The intent of the FY19 PRARP InCASA is to support innovative
research that improves the quality of life and care for individuals living with
the common symptoms of TBI and/or AD/ADRD and/or their families and care
providers, as related to the PRARP’s mission (see Section II.A, Program
Description). The proposed work should innovatively challenge existing research
paradigms or exhibit high levels of creativity within the contexts of the
PRARP’s mission and vision. This can include innovations and research for
symptom reduction (e.g., cognitive, behavioral, function, mood), resiliency
factors, increasing or maintaining independence, and support for families and
care providers. The research innovations for the FY19 PRARP InCASA are expected
to benefit the military, Veteran, and civilian communities. FY19 PRARP
InCASA applications should be Innovation- and Impact-based.
The FY19 PRARP InCASA offers two levels of funding. Funding
Level I is intended to support early-career investigators within 3 years of
their first independent faculty position, from any field or discipline. Note
that Funding Level I applications will be required to include an Eligibility
Statement (Attachment 6) in order to verify the eligibility of the individual
named as the Principal Investigator (PI) for this award. Funding Level
II is intended to support PIs at or above the level of assistant professor (or
equivalent) from any field or discipline. The application should demonstrate
the study team’s experience in both TBI and/or AD/ADRD research, as
appropriate.
