How to Apply

Detailed descriptions of funding opportunities, evaluation criteria, and submission requirements can be found in the specific Program Announcements. The Program Announcements are available electronically for downloading from the Grants.gov [5] website, the CDMRP [6] website and the electronic Biomedical Research Application Portal (eBRAP [7]).

All CDMRP funding opportunities, both recently and previously released, are available on the CDMRP website [1].

For more information on types of funding opportunities offered and application strategies review the CDMRP webinar series: https://cdmrp.army.mil/pubs/Webinars/webinar_series [8].

Submission is a two-step process requiring both pre-application submission and full application submission.  All pre-applications must be submitted through eBRAP [7].  Full applications from extramural organizations (non-DoD organizations) must be submitted through Grants.gov [5]. Refer to the General Application Instructions, Section II.A. for registration and submission requirements for eBRAP and Grants.gov.  For detailed information on the submission process, refer to Section II.D. of the Program Announcement/Funding Opportunity.

eBRAP is a multifunctional web-based system that allows PIs to submit their pre-applications electronically through a secure connection, to view and edit the content of their pre-applications and full applications, to receive communications from the CDMRP, and to submit documentation during award negotiations and period of performance.  A key feature of eBRAP is the ability of an organization’s representatives and PIs to view and modify the Grants.gov application submissions associated with them.  eBRAP will validate Grants.gov application files against the specific Program Announcement/Funding Opportunity requirements and discrepancies will be noted in an email to the PI and in the Full Application Files tab in eBRAP.  It is the applicant’s responsibility to review all application components for accuracy as well as ensure proper ordering as specified in this Program Announcement/Funding Opportunity.  

If you wish to apply please contact Angela Vuk as soon as possible so we can support you through the eBRAP system and application process.
