Description

Since 1992 the Department of Defense (DOD), through the U.S.

Army Medical Research and Material Command, has received congressionally earmarked appropriations for programs of biomedical research on prostate, breast, and ovarian cancer; neurofibromatosis; tuberous sclerosis; and other health problems.

Appropriations for these Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs are used to support peer reviewed extramural research project, training, and infrastructure grants.

Congress has become concerned about funding increases for these programs given current demands on the military budget.

At the request of Congress, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) examined possibilities of augmenting program funding from alternative sources.

The resulting IOM book, Strategies to Leverage Research Funding: Guiding DODa (TM)s Peer Reviewed Medical Research Programs, focuses on nonfederal and private sector contributions that could extend the appropriated funds without biasing the peer review project selection process.
