Aim: Through the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program (CDMRP), the Department of Defense is announcing the Breast Cancer Distinguished Investigator Awards. These Awards will enable established visionary leaders from any field to pursue innovative ideas that could accelerate progress toward ending breast cancer. These individuals should be exceptionally talented researchers who have shown that they are leaders in their field(s) through extraordinary creativity, vision, and productivity. The central feature of the Distinguished Investigator Award is that the PI must propose research that is a fundamental, conceptual shift from his/her track record of research. High-risk/high-reward applications with limited preliminary data are welcomed, but not required. All applications must include a well-formulated, testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale.
Funding: Maximum USD $3’000’000
Eligibility: Applicants from international organizations or institutions are eligible to apply, and there are no citizenship restrictions. Applicants must be at or above the level of Assistant Professor.
How to Apply: Pre-applications are submitted through the eBRAP platform. They should contain contact information, a preproposal narrative, supporting documentation, and a list of collaborators and key personnel as suggested on the platform. Full applications (by invitation) will be made via a Grants.gov workspace. Full application packages can be downloaded from Grants.gov at any time.
