DOD-CDMRP: Prostate Cancer Research Program (PCRP) - Pre-proposal

- Exploration - Hypothesis Development Award supports the exploration of highly innovative, untested, potentially groundbreaking concepts in prostate cancer. Emphasis is on innovation; potential impact may be difficult to predict. Human subject studies are permitted provided the studies are exempt or eligible for expedited review. Preliminary data are strongly discouraged. Peer and programmatic reviewers are blinded to the identities of the PI, collaborators, and their institutions. Funding: $75K over max 1 year.
- Physician Research Training Award supports training of physicians with clinical duties for careers in prostate cancer research. PIs must demonstrate a commitment to a career at the forefront of prostate cancer research and clinical practice. PIs must have a designated mentor with an established research program in prostate cancer. Institutions must provide at least 40% protection of PI’s time for research. Projects that focus on providing training in basic research are highly encouraged. Funding: max$520K ($130K/year) over max 4 years.
- Postdoctoral Training Award supports prostate cancer research training opportunities for postdoctoral trainees who are recent doctoral graduates. PIs must have a designated mentor who is an experienced prostate cancer researcher. Funding: max $115K ($57.5K/year) over max2 years.
