CAREER CATALYST RESEARCH GRANTS – BASIC/TRANSLATIONAL and CLINICAL
Career  Catalyst  (CCR)  Grants  are  intended to foster  promising  breast  cancer researchers who are in the early stages of their faculty careers by providing support for up to three years of “protected time” for research careerdevelopment under the guidance of a Mentor Committee. It is expected that awardees will launch independent research careers and successfully compete for subsequent research project funding in breast cancer following the successful completion of a CCR Grant, thereby playing key roles in reducing breast cancer incidence and mortality within the next decade, with the ultimate goal of ending breast cancer forever.

Two Research Focus Areas are included in this mechanism:
  •    CCR-Clinical Research – for clinical faculty proposing clinical research (as defined within the attached document)
  •    CCR-Basic/Translational Research – for basic or clinical faculty proposing laboratory-based biomedical research.

Funding:
Applicants/PIs may request funding of up to $150,000 per year (combined direct and indirect costs) for up to three years ($450,000).
