## What the grant funds

The intent of the FY22 TBIPHRP FPA is to optimize research and accelerate solutions to a critical question related to at least one sub-area within one of the three FY22 TBIPHRP FPA Focus Areas. The award mechanism supports development of a synergistic, multidisciplinary research program with the potential to have a significant impact on psychological health conditions and/or TBI through clinical applications, including healthcare products, technologies, and/or practice guidelines. Proposals/applications may propose applied/preclinical/clinical research and clinical trials. Clinical trials may be designed to evaluate promising new products, new indications, pharmacologic agents (drugs or biologics), devices, clinical guidance, and/or emerging approaches and technologies. Hypothesis-driven health services research, implementation science, and follow-up care research are also within scope for this mechanism. Proposed clinical trials should demonstrate feasibility or inform the design of more advanced trials that determine efficacy in relevant patient populations. Key aspects of this award include: Overarching Challenge: FPA proposals/applications must describe a unifying, overarching challenge that will be addressed by the set of research projects proposed. The overarching challenge must be relevant to a critical problem or question in the field of research and/or patient care in at least one sub-area within one of the three FY22 TBIPHRP FPA Focus Areas. Research Projects: Proposals/applications shall include multiple, distinct research projects led by individual project leaders that address complementary aspects of the overarching challenge. Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit a minimum of four research projects; additional studies are allowed. While individual projects must be capable of standing on their own high scientific merits, they must also be interrelated, synergistic, and align with the overarching challenge to advance a solution beyond what would be possible through individual efforts. The exploration of multiple hypotheses or viewpoints of the same line of questioning is encouraged. This award mechanism is not intended to support a series of research projects that are dependent on the success of one of the other projects. Each project should propose a unique approach to addressing the overarching challenge and be capable of producing research findings with potential to impact the field and/or patient care.
