The Division of Cancer Prevention of the NCI invites applications that address developmental research in chemoprevention agent development, biomarkers, early detection, and nutrition science. However, it is important to note that this funding opportunity does not include applications that are focused on treatment, etiology, or treatment-related quality of life studies that are population based. This Small Grants Program is designed to aid and facilitate the growth of a nationwide cohort of scientists with a high level of research expertise in cancer prevention research. It is anticipated that this Small Grant Program may lead to the submission of subsequent individual research project grants (R01).
