The Department of Defense (DOD) is offering the FY11 Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Investigator-Initiated Research Award (IIRA). This grant is specifically designed to advance research that ultimately extends and improves the function, quality of life, and life span for all individuals diagnosed with DMD. Its primary purpose is to accelerate the development and rigorous clinical testing of new therapeutics, while also increasing our understanding of successes and failures encountered in clinical trials. The IIRA supports in-depth studies that make a vital contribution toward understanding the mechanisms of DMD initiation or progression, and significantly improving patient care. Research projects are strongly encouraged to focus on translational efforts, ensuring the swift movement of promising ideas from foundational research into practical clinical applications.
