Brief
Funds are available from the Hutchinson Center/University of Washington Cancer Consortium Cancer Center Support Grant (CCSG) to support cancer-related pilot projects. Faculty from the Consortium are eligible to apply.
The pilot proposals should represent a new project or new research direction for the principal investigator, and one that is likely to provide preliminary data to seek outside funding.
Of particular interest are proposals that address areas of research that will help advance the strategic goals of the Consortium (e.g., solid tumor research, molecular profiling in population-based studies, quantitative biology, biomarker discovery with emphasis on early detection), but proposals in all areas of cancer-related research will be considered.
To obtain an application or more information, visit the Consortium Web site at http://www.cancerconsortium.org/membership/ or contact Janet Leeds at jleeds@fhcrc.org or at (206) 667-7835.
