1. Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program Announces $10 million for Concept Awards
The Breast Cancer Research Program (BCRP) is offering Concept Awards to spark new ideas and foster the development of new, innovative, high-risk but potentially high-gain avenues of investigation. This award mechanism provides investigators with the opportunity to pursue serendipitous observations and/or explore untested ideas relevant to breast cancer. Research completed through a Concept Award may provide sufficient preliminary data to enable the investigator to prepare a proposal for future research. As such, preliminary data are not consistent with the intent of this award mechanism. As in prior years, the Concept Awards will have blinded review process; the principal investigator and institution names will not be provided during either peer or programmatic review.
These awards are designed for preliminary investigations; therefore, projects involving human subjects or human biological substances will not be supported unless they are exempt under 32 CFR 219.101(b)(4). Concept Awards provide up to $75,000 in direct costs for 1 year, plus indirect costs as appropriate.
