The National Cancer Institute is offering a grant for advancing molecular and cellular analysis technologies for basic and clinical cancer research. This grant aims to support exploratory projects focusing on the development and validation of emerging technologies with novel capabilities to study cancer biology. Projects should address gaps in technology feasibility, with promising preliminary data, to encourage adoption by the research community. Ideal applications will accelerate research in cancer biology, early detection, clinical diagnosis, treatment, and more. Proposals should not focus on existing technologies, but instead on innovative approaches to molecular and cellular characterizations of cancer. Closing date for applications is September 29, 2020.

| 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. |
