Opportunity Information: Apply for W81XWH 18 RTRP IIRA
The DoD Reconstructive Transplant Investigator-Initiated Research Award (FY18 RTRP IIRA) is a Department of Defense funding opportunity designed to back investigator-driven studies that could materially advance reconstructive transplant research and ultimately improve patient care and quality of life. The program is positioned for projects that are ambitious and potentially transformative, but it is not meant for speculative work without a strong foundation. Applicants are expected to show a solid scientific rationale, a clear plan for execution, and a convincing case that the work has military-relevant utility, meaning the outcomes should matter for service members, veterans, or military medicine in contexts such as trauma, complex injury, and functional restoration.
This opportunity was offered under Funding Opportunity Number W81XWH 18 RTRP IIRA and administered by the Department of Defense through the Department of the Army, U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category and is listed under CFDA 12.420. The funding instruments include both grants and cooperative agreements, indicating that awards could range from more investigator-controlled projects (typical grants) to arrangements with more substantial DoD involvement or coordination (often seen in cooperative agreements), depending on the nature and needs of the proposed work.
Eligibility was broadly open, described as unrestricted, meaning the competition was not limited to a narrow set of institution types as long as applicants met any additional eligibility conditions referenced in the full announcement. The program also explicitly encouraged multi-institutional collaborations, especially efforts that bring together clinicians and research scientists. That emphasis signals an interest in proposals that can bridge clinical needs and real-world transplant challenges with rigorous laboratory, translational, or systems-level research, potentially accelerating progress toward usable interventions, protocols, or evidence that can influence practice.
The posting was created on July 10, 2018, with an original application deadline of October 24, 2018. The Department of Defense anticipated making about four awards. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically means the maximum award amount was not specified in the summary record and would instead be defined in the full funding announcement or accompanying program guidance. Overall, the core message of the opportunity is straightforward: fund high-impact reconstructive transplant research that is scientifically strong, clinically meaningful, and clearly tied to military health needs, while promoting collaboration across institutions and disciplines.Apply for W81XWH 18 RTRP IIRA
