Amount: $250,000 | Duration: Two years
Supports junior faculty to conduct pancreatic cancer research and establish successful career paths in the field. Proposed research may be basic, translational, clinical or epidemiological in nature and must have direct applicability and relevance to pancreatic cancer. Special consideration will be given to understudied areas in pancreatic cancer research, minority researchers, and research focused on cancer health disparities.
Application deadline: Closed
CLOSED 2023 PanCAN Cancer Informatics & Data Science Research Fellowship
This Fellowship will provide stipend and research- and training-related costs for a predoctoral student or postdoctoral fellow over a two-year period. Candidate will apply computational and/or data science methods to problems in pancreatic cancer research. The research proposed for funding should leverage PanCAN patient health data in the SPARK platform.
Application deadline: Closed
Building a Community for Progress
In addition to receiving financial support for their research, grantees participate in PanCAN’s Community for Progress. Our mentorship program connects grantees with leading scientists in the field. Ongoing career support activities offer opportunities for education and professional development to help keep our community of researchers committed and involved.
