Abstract:

The second year of the MSRC included funding ten research projects, supporting three postdoctoral pilot grants, and offering a 2000 dissertation award to expert and future leaders in the field of military suicide research. The Denver staff continues to collaborate with the Florida State University site and seek guidance from its senior advisors, the Military External Advisory Board, and the independent Scientific Peer Review Program. The MSRC is on track with its goals and is financially mindful in leveraging funds and reviewing its infrastructure to increase the funds available to support additional research.
