DoD Gulf War Illness, Biorepository Resource Network Award: The Biorepository Resource Network Award (BRNA) is being offered for the first time in FY17. The FY17 GWIRP BRNA is intended to provide infrastructure support for the development of a GWI biorepository comprised of a network of institutions that will collect, process, annotate, store, and distribute high-quality biospecimens and data from Veterans of the 1990-1991 Persian Gulf War. In addition to biospecimens, this biorepository is intended to house biological data from previous studies (e.g., imaging or -omics data without specimens attached). The development of the biorepository resource network will enable the GWI research community to conduct research that will address the mission of the GWIRP.
