\section{Specific Aims}
State concisely the goals of the proposed research and summarize the expected outcome(s),
including the impact that the results of the proposed research will exert on the research field(s) involved.
List succinctly the specific objectives of the research proposed, e.g., to test a stated hypothesis,
create a novel design, solve a specific problem, challenge an existing paradigm or clinical practice,
address a critical barrier to progress in the field, or develop new technology.
Specific Aims are limited to one page.

\begin{itemize}
\item Explain the importance of the problem or critical barrier to progress in the field
that the proposed project addresses.
\item Explain how the proposed project will improve scientific knowledge, technical capability,
and/or clinical practice in one or more broad fields.
\item Describe how the concepts, methods, technologies, treatments, services,
or preventative interventions that drive this field will be changed if the proposed aims are achieved.
\end{itemize}

\begin{itemize}
\item Describe the overall strategy, methodology, and analyses to be used to accomplish the specific aims of the project.
Unless addressed separately in Item 15 (Resource Sharing Plan), include how the data will be collected, analyzed,
and interpreted as well as any resource sharing plans as appropriate.
\item Discuss potential problems, alternative strategies, and benchmarks for success anticipated to achieve the aims.
\item If the project is in the early stages of development, describe any strategy to establish feasibility,
and address the management of any high risk aspects of the proposed work.
\item Point out any procedures, situations, or materials that may be hazardous to personnel and precautions to be exercised.
A full discussion on the use of Select Agents should appear in Item 11, below.
