CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program 
 (CDMRP)\, the Department of Defense is announcing the 2024 Kidney Cancer R
 esearch Program (KCRP). Several award programs are available:\n\n	The Conc
 ept Award supports highly innovative\, untested\, potentially groundbreaki
 ng novel concepts in kidney cancer. The Concept Award is not intended to s
 upport an incremental progression of an already established research proje
 ct but\, instead\, it allows Principal Investigators (PIs) the opportunity
  to pursue serendipitous observations. Preliminary data are not allowed an
 d should not be discussed. This award mechanism supports high-risk studies
  that have the potential to reveal entirely new avenues for investigation.
  Applications must describe how the new idea will enhance the existing kno
 wledge of kidney cancer or develop an innovative and novel course of inves
 tigation. Research completed through a Concept Award may generate sufficie
 nt preliminary data to enable the PI to prepare an application for future 
 research.\n	All applications must specifically address at least one of the
  Focus Areas listed in this document.\n	 \n	The Postdoctoral and Clinical
  Fellowship Award supports recent doctoral or medical school graduates in 
 pursuit of innovative\, high-impact kidney cancer research during their po
 stdoctoral and/or clinical fellowship and allows them to obtain the necess
 ary experience for an independent career as a leader in kidney cancer rese
 arch. Applicants must demonstrate that the proposed research has high pote
 ntial to lead to\, or make\, significant advancements in kidney cancer res
 earch and/or patient care. Applicants for this award must also exhibit a s
 trong desire to pursue a career in kidney cancer research\, with clear evi
 dence for a researcher development plan that will lead to a successful ind
 ependent career in kidney cancer.\n	All applications must specifically add
 ress at least one of the Focus Areas listed in this document.\n\n\nFunding
