2012 Career Development Awards for Translational Research
LUNGevity has issued its first Request for Application (RFA) for Career Development Awards for Translational Research. Research projects are restricted to translational lung cancer research, and the applicant must demonstrate the translational relevance of the research proposed. Proposed projects must make use of human biopsies or samples. In vivo primary tumor explants meet these criteria, but xenografts from established cell lines do not.
The projects that will be funded are expected to have a direct impact on the early detection of lung cancer; or on the outcomes of lung cancer; or to provide a clear conceptual or experimental foundation for the future development of methods for early detection and/or individualized treatment. High risk, high return proposals will receive equal consideration. Translational research includes epidemiology studies, and we especially encourage clinical correlative studies.
The award will be open to junior faculty members who are within the first five (5) years of their faculty appointment (at the start of the grant term) without a major Award such as RO1, DOD, Merit review or a Career Development Award such as a K07, K08 or K23 award. The LUNGevity Career Development Awards are mentored awards and the applicant must submit a mentoring plan.
LUNGevity Career Development Awards may be for a maximum of $100,000 (direct and indirect) per year for three (3) years.
It is strongly encouraged that those applying have direct and immediate access to the bio-specimens necessary to complete their research.
Letters of intent must be submitted by December 30, 2011. Those invited to proceed must submit a full application by March 19, 2012.
