Our 2015 Childhood Cancer Research Grant cycle is now open! Grant applications and guidelines may be downloaded via this link. Applications are due March 3, 2015 and must be submitted electronically to [email protected].

Having awarded $900,000 in innovative research grants since 2009, we are pleased to announce that we will be awarding a minimum of two research grants at $50,000.00 each (direct costs) in 2015. The purpose of these research grants is to fund senior postdoctoral fellows/junior faculty (M.D. or Ph.D.) or to provide seed money to established investigators for innovative basic, translational, clinical, and epidemiological research directed to pediatric and adolescent cancer. Applications that focus on rare childhood cancers will be given preference; additionally, in 2015, two grants focusing on Opsoclonus-Myoclonus Syndrome (OMS) will be available. Applications from senior fellows and junior faculty investigators are particularly encouraged.
