Cancer Research Proposal
Overview
The Executive Council of the new combined UT Cancer Center program has made $250,000 available for research funding to investigators in the cancer research community. This intramural funding will be awarded to investigators based on review of research proposals. A program to assist residents and fellows in their research is included, and awards for those projects will be made up to a maximum of $10,000 per project. Applications for residents/fellows mush have a faculty sponsor.
Awards for faculty investigators will be made up to a maximum of $50,000 per project. It is expected that projects funded through this program will be aimed at securing preliminary data to provide the basis of proposals to obtain external funding. Projects that have a multi-disciplinary focus and link basic scientists with clinicians are of particular interest.
The proposal form should be completed and submitted electronically to Helen Parsons by October 15th, 2012.
