This grant is for the purpose of supporting fundamental studies that identify and define the molecular mechanisms by which lipid metabolism mediates tumor growth and progression. It specifically focuses on the central role lipids play in linking diet with cancer biology, aiming to bridge the historically divided fields of nutrition and molecular metabolism. The grant also seeks to stimulate innovative research and tool development in this emerging area, acknowledging the challenges presented by the complexity of lipid biochemistry.

| Description: | Through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to request applications that propose mechanistic investigations of the links between diet, lipid metabolism and tumor growth and progression. It is anticipated that this program will support fundamental studies designed to identify and define the molecular mechanisms through which lipid metabolism mediates tumor growth and progression, focusing specifically on the central role lipids play in linking diet with the biology of cancer; bridge the historically divided fields of nutrition and molecular metabolism; and stimulate research and tool development in this emerging area, which faces particular challenges because of the complexity of lipid biochemistry. |
