The FY26 Arthritis Translational Research Award supports hypothesis-driven, high-impact applied research on all arthritis types using preclinical or animal models. It excludes clinical research and basic research. Applicants must demonstrate how their work will significantly advance arthritis research and provide preliminary or published data. The research should benefit Service Members, Veterans, their Families, and the American public.
Open to any type of entity without restrictions, subject to additional clarifications. Applicants must provide preliminary or published data from their own or others' research.
