This grant is for supporting innovative research projects designed to solve specific problems and paradoxes in cancer research. These challenges are identified by the NCI’s Provocative Questions initiative. The National Cancer Institute aims to stimulate new thinking and address crucial issues in cancer research that have not received sufficient attention. This funding opportunity specifically targets important, underexplored areas, distinct from NCI’s broader priorities. Its purpose is to challenge researchers to elucidate specific problems in key domains, thereby advancing cancer understanding and treatment by filling these critical knowledge gaps.

Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support innovative research projects designed to solve specific problems and paradoxes in cancer research identified by the NCI Provocative Questions initiative. These problems and paradoxes phrased as questions are not intended to represent the full range of NCI’s priorities in cancer research. Rather, they are meant to challenge cancer researchers to think about and elucidate specific problems in key areas of cancer research that are deemed important but have not received sufficient attention. |
