## What the grant funds

The FY23 TBIPHRP IIRA is intended to support studies that will make an important contribution toward understanding, preventing, assessing, and treating psychological health conditions and/or TBI. Research projects may focus on applied research through translational research, including preclinical studies in animal models and human subjects, as well as correlative studies associated with an existing clinical trial. Applications should clearly demonstrate the project’s potential near-term and long-term outcome(s)/product(s) (knowledge and/or materiel) and how they will impact a critical problem or question in the field of research and/or patient care in the FY23 TBIPHRP IIRA Focus Areas(s) addressed. Research involving human subjects and human anatomical substances is permitted; however, this FY23 TBIPHRP IIRA may not be used to conduct clinical trials. A clinical trial is defined as a research study in which one or more human subjects are prospectively assigned to one or more interventions (which may include a placebo or another control) to evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or behavioral health-related outcomes. Studies that do not seek to measure safety, effectiveness, and/or efficacy outcome(s) of an intervention are not considered clinical trials. Optimizing Research Impact Through Community Collaboration: Research funded by the FY23 TBIPHRP should be responsive to the psychological health conditions and/or TBI needs of the lived experience, family, and care provider communities. Through the establishment and utilization of effective and equitable collaborations and partnerships, the translational and impact potential of the proposed research can be maximized. For the FY23 TBIPHRP IIRA, inclusion of Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approaches is encouraged, particularly for studies involving human subjects, but not required. The inclusion of CBPR can be documented in Attachment 11, CBPR Letters of Commitment, and Attachment 12, CBPR Statement, if applicable. CBPR supports collaborative research that involves scientific researchers and community members working together to address diseases and conditions, particularly those that disproportionately affect health disparity populations.
