This retention-focused, institutionally-supported program is intended to support under-represented minority (URM) faculty members in submitting successful resubmissions of NIH K or R grant applications (or equivalent). The SUSTAIN program’s goal is to increase the likelihood of successful proposal resubmission by providing up to 1-2 years of protected time, grant writing training, and linkage to didactic, mentorship, and other resources customized to the applicant. The SUSTAIN program provides 1-2 years of support at 50% of full-time salary (up to $60,000), which must be matched by the department and confirmed in a letter from the candidate’s Department Chair. The combined effort must enable a total of at least 75% research effort.
Deadline: Friday, September 1, 2023

The BCRP Clinical Research Extension Award aims to (1) extend or expand the data collection, follow-up, and analysis of breast cancer clinical studies and (2) increase the clinically relevant impact of breast cancer patient participation in clinical research by addressing the knowledge lost due to early trial termination, limited patient follow-up, or suboptimal sample and/or data collection and analysis. Patient contributions of tissue, serum, and other biologic specimens and their data are invaluable to saving lives. This BCRP mechanism helps to ensure that science values those contributions with research that maximizes their impact.
Deadline: Tuesday, September 12, 2023

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites proposals for research centers to advance cancer control equity by stimulating community-engaged, multilevel research interventions that address the impact of social determinants of health (SDOH) on adverse cancer control outcomes. Each Research Center will (1) develop interventions that target the multilevel pathways by which SDOH impact adverse cancer outcomes, (2) develop measures, methods, and assess community-level SDOH, community engagement and cancer control equity processes and outcomes, and (3) build capacity and engagement among scholars from diverse backgrounds, which include those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical sciences, and community partners to implement interventions that incorporate the lived experiences of those who face cancer inequities.
Deadline: Thursday, September 14, 2023
