The Department of Defense (DoD) is offering this Lung Cancer Concept Award to support the exploration of highly innovative new concepts or untested theories addressing critical problems in lung cancer. This grant is for high-risk studies aiming to reveal entirely new avenues for investigation, encouraging principal investigators to pursue serendipitous observations rather than continuing established research projects. Applicants must demonstrate how their novel idea will significantly enhance existing lung cancer knowledge or create new research directions. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at Military Medical Treatment Facilities, military labs, and VA Medical Centers are strongly encouraged. While this award may generate preliminary data for future grants, providing such data in the initial application is discouraged as it contradicts the award’s focus on groundbreaking, unproven ideas.

| 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 a logical 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 create an entirely new avenue for investigation. Submissions from and partnerships with investigators at Military Medical Treatment Facilities, Military labs, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers and research laboratories are 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 and is discouraged. However, logical |
