The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is offering this grant to support innovative scientific research focusing on cancer etiology and carcinogenesis. This grant aims to establish new prospective cohorts to address critical knowledge gaps, with a strong emphasis on environmental exposures. Applicants are encouraged to utilize validated and reproducible techniques for measuring these exposures relevant to proposed research questions. A crucial aspect of this initiative is the inclusion of racial/ethnic minorities and understudied populations, directly addressing the unequal burden of cancer in these groups. For this FOA, environmental exposures broadly include physical, chemical, and biological factors external to a person, along with related behavioral factors. This effort, combined with a parallel coordinating center grant, will collectively form the comprehensive Cohorts for Environmental Exposure and Cancer Risk (CEECR) program.

| Description: | Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications to support innovative scientific research in new prospective cohorts that addresses knowledge gaps in cancer etiology and carcinogenesis process with a focus on environmental exposures. Applicants are encouraged to use validated and reproducible innovative techniques to measure environmental exposures relevant to the proposed scientific research questions. The cohorts should include racial/ethnic minorities and understudied populations to address the unequal burden of cancer that currently exists in those populations. In this FOA, environmental exposures refer to physical, chemical, and biological factors external to a person, and related behavioral factors. This FOA is published in parallel with RFA-CA-20-050 New Cohorts for Environmental Exposures and Cancer Risk (CEECR) Coordinating Center (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). Prospective cohorts and the Coordinating Center funded under these FOAs together will constitute the Cohorts for Environmental Exposure and Cancer Risk (CEECR) program. |
