AI Contract Overview
The Fiscal Year 2026 Military Burn Research Program (MBRP) Patient-Centered Research Award (HT942526MBRPPCRA) is an assistance agreement designed to bridge the gap between burn care research and clinical implementation within austere, resource-limited military operational environments. The program focuses on innovating and testing novel burn therapies, technologies, and clinical guidelines to improve the ability of non-burn specialists to assess and treat burn casualties. This award specifically supports clinical research or clinical trials involving human subjects or data and explicitly prohibits preclinical or animal research. A new Mentorship Option is available for FY26 to foster the development of junior researchers under the guidance of an experienced mentor. The solicitation offers a maximum period of performance of four years, with total cost caps of up to 1.6 million dollars for Single PI applications and up to 1.8 million dollars for the Mentorship Option. The application process is a two-step submission via Grants.gov for extramural organizations or eBRAP for intramural Department of the Army organizations, with a final response deadline of October 21, 2026. Awards are determined through a two-tier review process evaluating research strategy, military relevance, budget, and environment. Selected awardees must adhere to strict reporting requirements, including annual technical reports, quad charts, and Research Performance Progress Reports, while maintaining active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM).

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.
