Additional Information

Agency Name: National Institutes of Health
Description: The TBEL program aims to integrate basic and translational cancer research concepts to examine the direct causal relationships and interactions of an early lesion, its microenvironment and host-systemic factors as co-organizers of tumor initiation (or suppression) and malignant progression. The ultimate goals of the TBEL program are to further understand the biological and pathophysiological mechanisms driving or restraining precancers and early cancers and facilitate biology-backed precision prevention approaches. The FOA will utilize the U54 (Specialized Center–Cooperative Agreements) activity code. Each TBEL Center shall have a unique thematic focus and be structured to test hypotheses that bridge basic and translational research in a synergistic and iterative fashion. Collectively, TBEL Centers will operate as a network that will inform future, rationally-design modes of intervention that are founded on strong biological mechanisms and be comprehensive, multi-dimensional, and appropriately tailored to the degree of malignant potential of an early lesion.
