Innovation Grant 2019

The goal of these grants is to overcome barriers to clinical application of new treatment approaches for childhood cancer.  A priority is to fund projects that have already shown great promise, but that have a specific funding need to move forward. The three main focus areas for this RFP are:

  • Cancer immunotherapy/Targeted therapy
  • High-grade brain tumors
  • Therapeutic targeting through genomics/epigenetics

Application Instructions

Please submit:

  • a 1-to-2 page letter of intent with a description of proposed aims and approach
  • Biosketch or CV of the PI

 

to research@uw.edu by 5:00 PM Thursday August 15, 2019. Applications are due to the sponsor 9/9/19, so you will need to have your materials in to the Office of Sponsored Programs by 8/29/19 for processing, if given the go ahead by the Proposal Review Committee.
