OpenArmy Medical Research and Development CommandUnited States

Between basic arthritis science and a human trial sits a stretch of work that's too applied to be basic research and not yet ready for a person β€” this award funds exactly that stretch.

It's preclinical or animal research only. Clinical research and clinical trials aren't allowed on this mechanism at all, and neither is basic research as the notice defines it β€” the target is applied, translational…

Preclinical or animal translational research on arthritis, excluding both clinical research or clinical trials and basic research as defined in the notice, hypothesis-driven and applied, explicitly stating how outcomes will advance arthritis research toward a clinically relevant solution, with preliminary or published data required. No clinical trial or human research is allowed.
