Funding


The US Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC) Military Operational Medicine Research Program (MOMRP) manages research funding on behalf of the Department of the Army and the DoD Defense Health Program (DHP). This funding supports research at DoD laboratories and myriad extramural research organizations from small colleges to multi-national corporations in the development of innovative technology. The research products are directly applicable to today's military challenges and the anticipated problems of future operations in garrison, training and deployed environments.

There are multiple opportunities to fund medical research that will address gaps identified by the MOMRP.

Definition of Applicant Organizations

Applications may be submitted by extramural organizations and intramural Department of Defense (DoD) organizations, defined as follows:

Extramural Organization: An eligible non-DoD organization. Examples of extramural organizations include academia, biotechnology companies, foundations, Government, and research institutes. Extramural Submission: Application submitted by a non-DoD organization to Grants.gov.

Intramural DoD Organization: A DoD laboratory, DoD Military Treatment Facility, and/or DoD activity embedded within a civilian medical center. Intramural Submission: Application submitted by a DoD organization for an intramural investigator who is a DoD military or civilian employee working within a DoD laboratory or Military Treatment Facility or in a DoD activity embedded within a civilian medical center.

Applications from an intramural DoD organization or from an extramural non-DoD Federal organization may be submitted through a research foundation.
