DoW Military Burn, Discovery Award
Funds early, untested ideas in combat-relevant burn care meant to generate the preliminary data a later study would need.
Combat-relevant burn care still runs on ideas nobody has had the room to test, because most research funding wants a track record that a brand-new concept simply does not have yet.
This award funds innovative, untested, groundbreaking research at the earliest concept stage of combat-relevant burn care — work that can be exploratory, hypothesis-driven, or hypothesis-generating, as long as it is no…
