In general, new or early investigators are encouraged to apply and will be afforded special consideration. The research project can be a pilot, continuation of ongoing research, or other projects that move forward clinical or translational research that furthers the CARRA mission. Preference will be given to research that is collaborative in nature, which leverage current CARRA network resources and/or will further develop the CARRA network.
CARRA Staff is available Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 4:00pm CST to assist with the application process and to answer questions. Contact us by emailing [email protected] or by calling the CARRA Grants Manager at 414-918-9822.
Grant applicants that intend to utilize the CARRA Registry or CARRA-related data and/or samples (including Legacy Registry and APPLE data/samples) must receive approval from the CARRA Data Sample Share Committee (DSSC) prior to submitting their grant applications. Applicants will be required to provide documentation of DSSC approval at the time of submitting a grant application. The request must match the intended use outlined in the grant proposal. Failure to receive approval of the data and/or sample request prior to submission of the grant application will result in the administrative decline of the application.
Data/sample requests take up to 4 weeks for review and approval. Please keep this in mind as you plan your grant application. For more information on requesting data/samples and to access the request form, please visit the CARRA Data and Samples Request area of the wiki.
For the upcoming grant cycle, October 1 deadline, it is recommended that you submit your data/sample request no later than August 26. If you have any questions regarding this requirement, email [email protected].
In addition, if your application will propose collection of any new data or biosamples via the CARRA Registry and/or via CARRA sites, you must include a letter of support (LOS) from CARRA's Research and Registry Oversight Committee (RROC). Email [email protected] with a brief summary of your proposal and CARRA will work to schedule a call with you to discuss your application as soon as possible.
