Adaptive Signature Discovery University Research Alliance (ASD-URA)
This is an initial announcement of this funding opportunity.

Phase I is for receipt and evaluation of pre-proposal submissions.
Phase II is for receipt and evaluation of invited proposal packages.
Invitation to submit a Phase II proposal will be based on the evaluation results of the Phase I pre-proposal submission.
The LoI is required; however, it is not legally binding and does not enter into the review of Phase I or Phase II packages.
The information in the LoI will allow DTRA to estimate the potential review workload and plan for the review.
