AI Contract Overview
The FY26 Military Burn Research Program Patient-Centered Research Award aims to address the gap between burn care research advancements and their practical application in military operational settings where resources are limited. This award focuses on supporting clinical research or clinical trials involving human subjects or data, explicitly excluding preclinical or animal studies. Its goal is to generate actionable knowledge about implementing interventions, guidelines, tools, and policies to improve outcomes for burn patients in austere battlefield environments. A new feature for FY26 includes a Mentorship Option, offering increased funding to facilitate collaboration between experienced researchers and junior investigators. This dual-purpose approach not only funds critical combat burn care studies but also fosters the development of emerging leaders in military burn research. The award is managed by the Department of the Army through the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity and emphasizes patient-centered research that can influence practice and policy across the distributed operational battlespace.

Full Description
Summary: Despite significant research investment in combat-relevant burn care, a disparity exists between newly discovered knowledge in burn care and its implementation into clinical practice across the distributed operational battlespace. The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Military Burn Research Program (MBRP) Patient-Centered Research Award (PCRA) seeks to bridge the gap between research, practice, and policy by developing a knowledge base that provides clinically useful findings about how interventions, clinical practices, guidelines, tools, and policies can be deployed to burn patients in an austere, resource-limited, military operational environment.
Distinctive Features:
· This award mechanism must support clinical research or clinical trials but cannot support preclinical or animal research. Applications may propose prospective or retrospective research involving human subjects or human subject data.
· New for FY26: The FY26 PCRA offers a Mentorship Option at a higher funding level to support a synergistic relationship between an experienced researcher (Mentor) and one to two junior researchers (Mentees). The dual purpose of this award is to fund a primary research study addressing a critical gap in combat burn care while simultaneously fostering the development of the next generation of military burn research leaders.
