CDMRP: Joint Program Committee – Neuromusculoskeletal Injuries Research Award - Preclinical & Clinical

The Joint Program Committee on Neuromusculoskeletal Injuries Research Award has two current opportunities:

1- Preclinical, funds projects for entire project up to $1.5-million encompassing three (3) years. http://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=276189

2- Clinical Trial, funds projects for entire project up to $2-million encompassing four (4) years. http://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=276189 

Topics of interest:

• Limited capability to assess and facilitate the optimal restoration of physical and psychosocial reintegration following neuromusculoskeletal injury
• Current assistive technology, including prosthetic and orthotic, characteristics that limit patient interaction, usability, and interaction
• Limited ability to predict, identify, and reduce secondary health effects that develop after primary neuromusculoskeletal injury
• Limited understanding of the optimal treatment strategies and sequence of progression throughout the rehabilitation process following neuromusculoskeletal injury, to include sprains and strains
• Inadequate measures for standardized assessment of relevant activity performance and participation
