Description
The FY21 LCRP Concept Award supports the exploration of a highly innovative new concept or untested theory that addresses an important problem relevant to lung cancer. The Concept Award is not intended to support an incremental progression of an already established research project; instead, this award mechanism allows Principal Investigators (PIs) the opportunity to pursue serendipitous observations by supporting high-risk studies that have the potential to reveal entirely new avenues for investigation. Applications must describe how the new idea will enhance the existing knowledge of lung cancer or develop an innovative and novel course of investigation. Research completed through a Concept Award may generate sufficient preliminary data to enable the PI to prepare an application for future research.Presentation of preliminary data is not consistent with the intent of the Concept Award mechanism. While the inclusion of preliminary data is not prohibited, the strength of the application should not rely on preliminary data. Relevance to Military Health: The LCRP seeks to support research that is relevant to the health care needs of military Service members, Veterans, and their families. Relevance to military health will be considered in determining relevance to the mission of the DHP and FY21 LCRP during programmatic review. Investigators are strongly encouraged to consider the following characteristics as examples of how a project may demonstrate relevance to military health:· Use of military or Veteran populations, biospecimens, data/databases, or programs in the proposed research · Collaboration with Department of Defense (DoD) or Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) investigators · Description of how the knowledge, information, products, or technologies gained from the proposed research could be implemented in a dual-use capacity to address a military need that also benefits the civilian population · Explanation of how the project addresses an aspect of lung cancer that has direct relevance tomilitary Service members, Veterans, or other Military Health System beneficiaries, includingenvironmental exposures other than tobacco
