The Department of Defense (DoD) is offering the Gulf War Illness Research Program (GWIRP) Qualitative Research Award, a new grant mechanism introduced in FY17. This grant is designed to support qualitative research studies focused on understanding the human experience related to Gulf War Illness (GWI). Specifically, it aims to explore the experiences, perceptions, barriers, and beliefs of Veterans suffering from GWI, as well as those individuals responsible for their care. Research proposals can stem from diverse sources, including basic scientific discovery, population-based studies, direct clinician observations, or anecdotal evidence, all with the goal of shedding light on the complex realities faced by affected Veterans.
