Description (excerpt)
The Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) seeks feedback to inform potential future Lupus Research Program (LRP) focus areas and associated research funding opportunities. Although fiscal year 2027 (FY27) funds have not been appropriated, the LRP is requesting this information to support program planning processes. The CDMRP wants to hear from all audiences, interested parties, and individuals from academia, industry, community and non-profit organizations, scientific and professional organizations, federal agencies, and the public. This RFI is for information and planning purposes only and should not be construed as a solicitation or an obligation on the part of the LRP or the Department of War.
