The program is structured as a 66-month effort spanning three phases: proving the core technical thesis, demonstrating a proof-of-concept, and achieving clinical translation and commercialization. Awards will be granted via Other Transaction (OT) instruments, with payments tied to a quarterly milestone schedule. Evaluation is based on scientific merit, feasibility, innovation, and proposer capabilities, with specific success metrics tied to Polysomnography (PSG) fidelity and diagnostic accuracy.
