About this file
This is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) to solicit feedback on potential future Lupus Research Program (LRP) focus areas and associated research funding opportunities. The RFI is for planning purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or obligation by the LRP or the Department of War. Although fiscal year 2027 (FY27) appropriations have not yet been approved by Congress, the CDMRP is seeking input to inform program planning processes.
The RFI solicits responses from a broad spectrum of stakeholders, including academia, industry, community and non-profit organizations, scientific and professional organizations, federal agencies, and the general public. No specific response deadline, award date, or funding amount is indicated in this planning-stage RFI. This pre-solicitation notice is designed to gather strategic intelligence regarding research priorities, gaps, and emerging needs in lupus research to guide the development of future competitive funding announcements should FY27 appropriations be enacted.
