program description

applications to the fiscal year 2015 (fy15) peer reviewed alzheimer’s research program (prarp) are being solicited for the defense health agency, research, development, and acquisition (dha rda) directorate, by the u.s. army medical research acquisition activity (usamraa). as directed by the office of the assistant secretary of defense for health affairs, the dha rda directorate manages and executes the defense health program (dhp) research, development, test, and evaluation (rdt&e) appropriation. the executing agent for this program announcement/funding opportunity is the congressionally directed medical research programs (cdmrp).

the prarp (formerly the militarily relevant peer reviewed alzheimer’s disease research program) was initiated in 2011 to address the long-term consequences of traumatic brain injury (tbi) as they pertain to alzheimer’s disease (ad). military personnel and other individuals who suffer from tbi face an increased risk for developing several long-term health problems. these conditions include alzheimer’s-like dementia, aggression, memory loss, depression, and symptoms similar to those of other neurological diseases. the prarp is devoted to (1) understanding the association between tbi and ad; and (2) reducing the burden on affected individuals and caregivers, especially in the military and veteran communities. support for these objectives is anticipated to be delivered by the research community through a combination of mechanistic and preclinical studies.

funding mechanisms

• convergence science research award (csra)
• quality of life research award (qual)
• military risk factors research award (mrfa)

conference and workshop grants are for amounts up to $20,000. in accordance with the mission of the foundation, priority is given to events that foster the creation of an international community of research scholars in anthropology and advance significant and innovative anthropological research.

post-ph.d. research grants are awarded to individuals holding a ph.d. or equivalent degree to support individual research projects. the program contributes to the foundation's overall mission to support basic research in anthropology and to ensure that the discipline continues to be a source of vibrant and significant work that furthers our understanding of humanity's cultural and biological origins, development, and variation. the foundation supports research that demonstrates a clear link to anthropological theory and debates, and promises to make a solid contribution to advancing these ideas. there is no preference for any methodology, research location, or subfield. the foundation particularly welcomes proposals that employ a comparative perspective, can generate innovative approaches or ideas, and/or integrate two or more subfields.

dissertation fieldwork grants are awarded to aid doctoral or thesis research. the program contributes to the foundation's overall mission to support basic research in anthropology and to ensure that the discipline continues to be a source of vibrant and significant work that furthers our understanding of humanity's cultural and biological origins, development, and variation. the foundation supports research that demonstrates a clear link to anthropological theory and debates, and promises to make a solid contribution to advancing these ideas. there is no preference for any methodology, research location, or subfield. the foundation particularly welcomes proposals that employ a comparative perspective, can generate innovative approaches or ideas, and/or integrate two or more subfields.

the foundation aims to promote the mental health of people living in ontario, to prevent mental illness and to improve diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation. this is done primarily by supporting the professional development of researchers and by funding excellent mental health research. the foundation looks to people with mental disorders, providers and the research community to identify important and innovative areas of research.

type a: research project grants (2 years)

applicants may request funds for up to two years. the grant period will be determined by the foundation and specified in the letters of notification.  even if the intent is to continue a line of work funded by the foundation, applications for further support beyond the period of notification will be treated as new applications.

individuals enrolled in a predoctoral training program are not eligible to apply for a type a grant.

_______________________________________________________

type b: research project grants (up to 4 years)

principal investigators who have been funded by the foundation for at least four consecutive years in a particular line of research at the time of application, and who can show the need to continue that line of research may apply for support for up to four additional years, through a type b grant. 

holders of a type b grant will be expected to submit a satisfactory progress report to secure funding for the 3^rd and 4^th years of the type b grant.  the foundation must receive the progress report by the september deadline which falls in the 2^nd year of the grant. the progress report will be reviewed by the grants committee.  

this knowledge to action grant has been created to encourage ideas that will close the gap between what is known from research and what is done with that knowledge. these grants are intended to provide funding for research projects that build on existing cancer research findings and aim to improve outcomes and experiences through knowledge translation (kt) for people and populations at risk, patients, their families and communities across the cancer trajectory e.g., to assist knowledge users (researchers, practitioners, policy makers, ccs program delivery staff and/or volunteers) in their awareness of knowledge or innovations and facilitating their use in health or healthcare system improvement. the grant should incorporate the principles of knowledge translation including knowledge synthesis, dissemination, exchange and/or ethically sound application of knowledge to improve health and the health system.

note that the focus of applications should be on either: the translation of current, existing knowledge and not the creation of new knowledge, from foundational, discovery research, or the development of new, innovative approaches, models, methodologies, measurement tools, etc., for knowledge translation as outlined below.

insight grants proposals are expected to respond to the objectives put forward in the call for proposals for the insight program. the objectives of the insight program are to:

• build knowledge and understanding from disciplinary, interdisciplinary and/or cross-sector perspectives through support for the best researchers;
• support new approaches to research on complex and important topics, including those that transcend the capacity of any one scholar, institution or discipline;
• provide a high-quality research training experience for 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ;
• fund research expertise that relates to societal challenges and opportunities; and
• mobilize research knowledge, to and from academic and non-academic audiences, with the potential to lead to intellectual, cultural, social and economic influence, benefit and impact.

insight grants support research excellence in the social sciences and humanities. funding is available to both emerging and established scholars for long-term research initiatives of three to five years.

stable support for long-term research initiatives is central to advancing knowledge. it enables scholars to address complex issues pertaining to individuals and societies, and to further our collective understanding.

the insight grants funding opportunity supports research proposed by scholars and judged worthy of funding by their peers and/or other experts. insight grants research initiatives may be undertaken by an individual researcher or a team of researchers working in collaboration
