The Department of Defense is offering the Lung Cancer Concept Award to support innovative exploration of new concepts or untested theories related to lung cancer. Aimed at addressing significant issues in the field, this grant allows Principal Investigators to pursue novel observations and high-risk studies that could potentially lead to groundbreaking discoveries. Collaboration with military treatment facilities, labs, and VA medical centers is encouraged. Applicants must demonstrate how their ideas will advance knowledge or open up new research directions in lung cancer. This grant does not require presentation of preliminary data but focuses on promoting creativity and innovation. Deadline for submission is August 11, 2016.

| Description: | The Concept Award supports the exploration of a highly innovative new concept or untested theory that addresses an important problem relevant to lung cancer. The Concept Award is not intended to support an incremental progression of an already established research project but, instead, allows Principal Investigators (PIs) the opportunity to pursue serendipitous observations. 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 develop an innovative and novel course of investigation. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at military treatment facilities, military labs, and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers and research laboratories are strongly encouraged. Research completed through a Concept Award may generate sufficient preliminary data to enable the PI to prepare an application for future research. Presentation of preliminary data is not consistent with the intent of the Concept Award mechanism. While the inclusion of preliminary data is not prohibited, the strength of the application should not rely on preliminary data. |
