Cancer Research UK’s new investment in paediatric cancer research
Posted by SheonaCRUK, on 8 August 2019
We are increasing our investment in paediatric cancer research by launching two new significant funding calls. We would like to encourage proposals to investigate the following concepts amongst others-
- the basis of tumour initiation and progression
- novel models that would enhance pre-clinical research.
Please see the links below for the complete list.
The Cancer Research UK Children and Young People’s Innovation Awards calls on all scientists, from basic biology to clinical research, to propose novel and ambitious approaches to further our understanding of paediatric cancer.
The Stand up to Cancer-Cancer Research UK Paediatric New Discoveries Challenge focuses on multidisciplinary, multi-institutional, transatlantic teams that want to pursue a step change in our understanding of the drivers of paediatric cancers and the development of novel or repurposed medicines, treatment strategies or technologies
