Department of Defense (DOD) Neurofibromatosis Research Program (NFRP) Concept Award: The Neurofibromatosis Research Program (NFRP) Concept Award supports the exploration of an initial idea that could give rise to a testable hypothesis. Presentation of preliminary data is not required and is not consistent with the intent of this award mechanism. These awards provide Principal Investigators (PIs) with the opportunity to pursue serendipitous observations. Proposals must describe how the new idea will enhance existing knowledge of neurofibromatosis and/or Schwannomatosis or create an entirely new avenue for investigation. Research completed through a Concept Award may provide sufficient preliminary data to enable the PI to prepare a proposal for future research. The fiscal year 2007 (FY07) NFRP encourages proposals that specifically address critical needs of the NF community in the following areas: . Translational research such as the development or preclinical testing of therapeutic agents for the treatment of neurofibromatosis; . Complications of neurofibromatosis with high mortality such as childhood neoplasms, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, and cerebrovascular abnormalities; . Complications of neurofibromatosis with high morbidity such as skeletal maladies, learning deficits, hormone-associated effects and pain; . Refinement and standardization of imaging techniques for use in future clinical trials. Concepts from complementary areas of science such as chemistry, biophysics, mathematics, engineering, etc., are encouraged as are research proposals involving consumer-scientist collaborations.
