We are pleased to announce that we will be awarding our first two research grants at $50,000.00 each (direct costs) in 2011. 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 Wilms tumor and rare childhood cancers will be given preference. Applications from senior fellows and junior faculty investigators are particularly encouraged. Applications are due January 31, 2011 and can be downloaded here:
