| Description:: | The vision of the FY11 Lung Cancer Research Program (LCRP) is to eradicate deaths from lung cancer to better the health and welfare of the military and the American public. As such, the LCRP will support and integrate research from multiple disciplines for early detection, diagnosis, prevention, cure, and control of lung cancer. The Concept Award supports the exploration of highly innovative, untested, potentially high-gain concepts, theories, paradigms, and/or methods that address an important problem in lung cancer. The Concept Award is not intended to support a logical progression of an already established research project but, instead, allows Principal Investigators (PIs) the opportunity to pursue serendipitous observations and new ideas. This award mechanism supports high-risk studies that have the potential to reveal entirely new avenues for investigation. Applications must describe how the new idea will enhance the existing knowledge of lung cancer or create an entirely new avenue for investigation. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at Military Medical Treatment Facilities, military laboratories, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers, and research laboratories and industry are encouraged. Research completed through a Concept Award may generate sufficient preliminary data to enable the PI to prepare an application for future research. |
