DoW Melanoma Research Program Survivorship Research Award
Agency: Dept. of the Army -- USAMRAA
Assistance Listings: 12.420 -- Military Medical Research and Development
Description
Summary: The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Melanoma Research Program (MRP) Survivorship Research Award addresses the relatively new and underfunded area of melanoma-specific survivorship by supporting a broad range of innovative and impactful research that has the intended outcome of improving the health and well-being of melanoma survivors, their families and/or their care partners in the near term. Proposed studies focusing exclusively on animal models or considering survival only without consideration of quality of life, overall health and/or function are not responsive to this funding opportunity.
...Distinctive Features:
· The application must include at least one melanoma consumer collaborator, defined as a melanoma survivor, family member and/or care partner who can provide lived experience expertise to the research project team, or a melanoma-community supporting organization to support the planning, execution, and implementation of the proposed research.
· Clinical trials are allowed.
Funding Details: The Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs expects to allot roughly $2.04M to fund approximately two Survivorship Research Award applications with total cost caps of $1.02M per award. The maximum period of performance is 3 years. It is anticipated that awards made from this FY26 funding opportunity will be funded with FY26 funds, which will expire for use on September 30, 2032. Awards supported with FY26 funds will be made no later than September 30, 2027.
