MILITARY MEDICAL PHOTONICS PROGRAM
Funding Agency:
- Department of Defense
The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) seeks unclassified proposals for broadbased research and development aimed at using lasers and other light source technology to develop applications in medicine, photobiology, surgery, and closely related materials sciences, with applications to combat casualty care and other military medical problems. This announcement is primarily directed toward university-based medical institutions; however, all qualified and responsible prime applicants located in the United States are eligible to submit proposals. The highest priority will be extended to proposals up to three (3) years duration to be conducted by teams of physicians, biomedical scientists, physical scientists, and engineers. The efforts proposed may be basic or applied research and must have direct relevance to combat casualty care or other military medical priorities. Applicants must demonstrate substantial experience working to further military medical priorities, including transitioning research into clinical practice and working products. Substantial experience collaborating with military medical centers is also a requirement to establish relevance to combat casualty care or other military medical priorities and facilitate the transition of research results to meet military needs.
Multiple awards are anticipated
$10,000,000
Proposals must be received electronically through Grants.gov not later than 9 December 2022 at 11:59 PM Eastern time to be considered.
