The National Cancer Institute is offering a grant to support the development and validation of emerging technologies for investigating molecular and cellular aspects of cancer biology in basic and clinical research. Projects should address critical gaps in technology feasibility and demonstrate potential to enhance cancer research in various areas including early detection, diagnosis, treatment, and epidemiology. This grant is aimed at accelerating the adoption of innovative molecular analysis technologies to improve understanding and management of cancer, excluding projects focusing solely on existing technologies. Applications for this grant must be submitted by September 27, 2019.

Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits grant applications proposing exploratory research projects focused on further development and validation of emerging technologies offering novel capabilities for targeting, probing, or assessing molecular and cellular features of cancer biology for basic or clinical cancer research. This FOA solicits R33 applications where major feasibility gaps for the technology or methodology have been overcome, as demonstrated with supportive preliminary data, but still requires further development and rigorous validation to encourage adoption by the research community. Well-suited applications must offer the potential to accelerate and/or enhance research in the areas of cancer biology, early detection and screening, clinical diagnosis, treatment, control, epidemiology, and/or address issues associated with cancer health disparities. Technologies proposed for development may be intended to have widespread applicability but must be focused on improving molecular and/or cellular characterizations of cancer. Projects proposing application of existing technologies where the novelty resides in the biological or clinical target/question being pursued are not appropriate for this solicitation and will not be reviewed. This funding opportunity is part of a broader NCI-sponsored Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies (IMAT) Program. |
