As of 2007, proposals requesting funding from the CDMRP have been submitted
through the Federal Government's single entry portal, Grants.gov, in compliance
with Public Law 106-107. Individual program announcements and required forms
can be found on the Grants.gov website. Pre-applications are required and must
be submitted through the CDMRP eReceipt website
prior to proposal submission to Grants.gov.
New for 2008 - In order to clarify the CDMRP Program
Announcements and proposal submission process, CDMRP has divided these
documents into the following:
-
- Program Announcement - contains all program information, scientific
proposal components, and peer review criteria.
- Application Instructions - contains instructions and detailed information
on all pre-application and proposal requirements, including directions for
Grants.gov submissions. This document also contains Regulatory Requirements and
Award Administration information.
Each Application Instruction document will apply only to the specific
funding mechanism listed; however this document is intended to be utilized in
conjunction with the Program Announcement.
