Idea Development Award - Level II
Intent: To solicit novel, innovative research that has the potential to increase our understanding of post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) to improve quality of life, especially in Service Members, Veterans, and/or their care partners. The work should innovatively challenge existing research paradigms or exhibit high levels of creativity.
The FY23 ERP Idea Development Award offers two levels of funding dependent upon the level of experience of the PI:
• Level II is intended to support independent investigators. Applicants can be from any field or discipline. Study teams are expected to demonstrate experience in both traumatic brain injury (TBI) and epilepsy.
Preliminary data are not required; however, evidence demonstrating the research team’s ability to execute the chosen model of TBI and record subsequent seizure is required, if applicable. Clinical trials are not allowed under this funding opportunity.
Investigators at any career level may be named by the organization as the Principal Investigator (PI) on the application. The PI can be from any field or discipline but must demonstrate suitable experience relevant to the proposed research.
