Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), solicits grant applications proposing research projects on the advanced development of emerging molecular and cellular analysis technologies through technical/analytical validation in an appropriate cancer-relevant biological system or context. An emerging technology is defined as one that has passed the pilot developmental stage and shows promise, but has not yet been evaluated within the context of its intended use. If successful, these technologies would accelerate research in cancer biology, cancer treatment and diagnosis, cancer prevention, cancer control and epidemiology, and/or cancer health disparities. This FOA solicits projects where proof-of-principle of the proposed technology or methodology has been established and supportive preliminary data are available. Projects proposed to this FOA should reflect the potential to produce a major impact in a broad area of cancer-relevant research. Projects proposing to use established technologies where the novelty resides in the biological or clinical question being pursued are not appropriate for this solicitation as non-responsive and will not be reviewed.
