Event details

Date 17.06.2015
Category Call for proposal
Eligibility:
Applications are open to postdoctoral fellows who have completed their doctoral degree and are at academic institutions, no more than 5 years after the date of their degree confirmation, or 5 years after completion of their residency (for physicians).

Funding:
Up to $120,000 over 2 years or $180,000 over 3 years.

Training Requirements:
Applicants/PIs must include a Lead Mentor who currently conducts breast cancer research at the same academic institution with the postdoctoral fellow.  The primary purpose of the Lead Mentor and Co-Mentor (if applicable) is to provide the research, scientific, clinical, management, and leadership guidance necessary to foster the Applicant/PI’s career advancement.

Grant Intent:
Seek to attract and support promising scientists who are embarking on careers dedicated to breast cancer research.  PDF grants provide support for basic research projects that have significant potential to advance our understanding of breast cancer, lead to reductions in breast cancer incidence and/or mortality, and move us toward the goal of a world without breast cancer.

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