DESCRIPTION:Aim: LSS funds research on leukemia\, lymphoma\, myeloma\, and
  all other rare blood cancers. They are dedicated to funding the best scie
 nce to bring better treatments to patients with every form of blood cancer
 . The LLS Translational Research Program was created in 1995 with the goal
  of accelerating clinical applications of laboratory findings relevant to 
 improved diagnosis and management of leukemia\, lymphoma\, myeloma\, and o
 ther hematopoietic malignancies\n\n\nFor the 2026 application cycle the fo
 undation will only consider applications that adhere to the following subm
 ission guidelines:\n\n	For small molecule compounds the application must b
 e of in vivo proof of concept (POC) in appropriate mouse models. Alternati
 vely\, based on the mechanism of action\, an in vitro POC with patient-der
 ived samples may be considered.\n	For cellular or immunotherapies\, in viv
 o POC would make for a stronger application. We acknowledge\, however\, th
 at depending on the type of therapy being developed an in vitro POC may be
  more appropriate or necessary.\n\n\nFunding:       $750\,000\n\nDur
 ation:      3 years\n\nEligibility:    The program welcomes applicat
 ions from US citizens and non-US citizens\, as well as applicants who are
