The NCI Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) cultivates new, independent investigators in cancer research. This grant supports outstanding early-stage postdoctoral fellows with doctoral degrees to transition efficiently from mentored positions to independent tenure-track faculty roles. It provides NCI research support for awardees to launch competitive careers. Researchers in data science and cancer control science are especially encouraged to apply. Crucially, this opportunity does not allow applicants to lead an independent clinical trial, feasibility study, or ancillary clinical trial. However, participation in a mentor-led clinical trial is permissible.

| Description: | The purpose of the NCI Pathway to Independence Award for Outstanding Early Stage Postdoctoral Researchers (K99/R00) program is to increase and maintain a strong cohort of new and talented, NCI-supported, independent investigators. This program is designed for postdoctoral fellows with research and/or clinical doctoral degrees who do not require an extended period of mentored research training beyond their doctoral degrees. The objective of this award is to facilitate a timely transition of these fellows from their mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent tenure-track (or equivalent) faculty positions. The program will provide independent NCI research support during this transition to help awardees to launch competitive, independent research careers. Researchers in the scientific areas of data science and cancer control science are especially encouraged to apply. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is designed specifically for candidates proposing research that does not involve leading an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or an ancillary clinical trial. Under this FOA candidates are permitted to propose a research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor. Those proposing a clinical trial or an ancillary clinical trial as lead investigator, should apply to the companion FOAs (RFA-CA-22-036 or RFA-CA-22-037). |
