Amount of funding: $50,000 total cost ($46,300 indirects $3,700 indirects)
Purpose: SCI seeks innovative proposals that have a high likelihood of leading to external funding, new clinical interventions, new intellectual property, or other clear measures of success. The most important criterion for awards is promising science with the potential to lead to a greater understanding of pancreatic cancer, with the ultimate goal of improving the prevention or treatment of pancreatic cancer. SCI solicits innovative proposals from multidisciplinary groups with a team science approach.
Eligibility: The RFA is open to all faculty members of the Stanford Cancer Institute and any faculty member of the Stanford University community with PI status. If the PI is not a Cancer Institute member, the application should include a letter of support from a sponsoring Cancer Institute member, who should also be a project collaborator.
