The intent of the FY24 ERP IDA is to solicit novel, innovative research that has the potential to increase our understanding of PTE to improve quality of life, especially in Service Members, Veterans, and/or their care partners. The work should innovatively challenge existing research paradigms or exhibit high levels of creativity. The FY24 ERP IDA offers two levels of funding dependent upon the level of experience of the Principal Investigator (PI). Funding Level I - Pathway to Independence Option: Early-career investigators ranging from the postdoctoral level (e.g., research associate, fellows, residents, or equivalent) to within 3 years of their first independent faculty position (or equivalent) may be named by the organization as the PI on the application (mentor required). Funding Level II - Innovative New Direction Option: Investigators at all career levels may be named by the organization as the PI on the application.
