DoD Combat Casualty Care Research Program

Amount of funding: Total costs budgeted for the entire period of performance will not exceed $2M.
Purpose:  The Trauma Immunology Research Award (TIRA) will support basic and applied research and early-stage development of materiel and knowledge products to address critical gaps in the understanding of immune system, immune response, immune function, and other associated host responses in combat injuries, in particular, severe polytrauma as encountered in the operational environment. Polytrauma is defined as two or more injuries to physical regions or organ systems, one of which may be life-threatening, resulting in physical, cognitive, psychological, or psychosocial impairments and functional disability.
