The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs, Defense Health
Program Medical Research and Development Office is soliciting proposals
for the Defense Medical Research and Development Program (DMRDP) Applied
Research and Advanced Technology Development Awards to be funded beginning
in fiscal year 2010 (FY10). The goal of the DMRDP is to advance the
state of medical science in those areas of most pressing need and relevance
to today’s battlefield experience, for example in the areas of psychological
health and traumatic brain injury (TBI) and to the capability needs
of the Joint Force Health Protection (JFHP) Concept of Operations (CONOPS),
as delineated in the tasks described in this announcement. The objectives
of the DMRDP are to discover and explore innovative approaches to protect,
support, and advance the health and welfare of military personnel, families
and communities; to accelerate the transition of medical technologies
into deployed products; and to accelerate the translation of advances
in knowledge into new standards of care for injury prevention, treatment
of casualties, rehabilitation, and training systems that can be applied
in Theater or in the clinical facilities of the Military Health System
(MHS).
