Revision Applications for Incorporation of Novel NCI-Supported Technology to Accelerate Cancer Research (P50 Clinical Trial Optional)
The "Revision Applications for Incorporation of Novel NCI-Supported Technology to Accelerate Cancer Research" grant aims to encourage existing NCI P50 specialized centers to enhance their current cancer research by integrating new technologies or methods developed by the NCI Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies program.
Description
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to encourage revision applications (formerly called "competing revisions") from currently funded NCI P50 specialized centers. The applicants should propose to expand upon original research question(s) from specific projects or otherwise accelerate progress for the parent study by incorporating a new technical approach or instrument developed through support from the NCI Innovative Molecular Analysis Technologies (IMAT) program. Awards from this NOFO are meant to incentivize independent validation and accelerate the suitability of these emerging technologies for appropriate research communities. As a component of the NCI IMAT program, this NOFO aims to promote interdisciplinary collaboration in the development of innovative tools and methods that enable cancer research and accelerate scientific discovery.
