- Early Investigator award (EI) – open to beginning scientists and physician scientists at the Instructor or Assistant Professor level. Physician scientists (MD or MD/PhD) who are within 5 years of completion of their clinical (or terminal) fellowship training and are beginning to establish a research career may apply as Instructors or Assistant Professors. PhD scientists within 5 years of an initial appointment as a tenure track Assistant Professor are also invited to apply for this award. The award term will be up to 2 years with support of $100,000 per year in direct costs plus 10% indirect costs (Total award = $220,000).
Eligibility Criteria
- Applicants for Research Grants from CURE Childhood Cancer must be full-time faculty at a US-based, nonprofit research institution. Applications will not be accepted from for-profit institutions or federal or state government laboratories (e.g. NIH or National Laboratories).
- A single, Principal Investigator (PI) must be designated as fully responsible for the conduct of the project, and a PI cannot hold more than one grant at a time from CURE. CURE will accept only one application from a PI; however, this does not preclude participation of the PI in secondary roles on other applications or grants.
