Description:
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) invites applications for research projects to evaluate the usefulness of emerging technologies that are ready for initial application to clinical or biological questions in cancer research. This RFA will use NIH R21 Exploratory/Developmental and the R33 Exploratory/Developmental Phase II award mechanisms. The R33 mechanism provides a second phase for the support of innovative exploratory and developmental research that may or may not have been initiated under the R21 mechanism. NCI intends to commit approximately $3,000,000 in FY 2006 to fund 10 to 15 new and/or competing continuation grants in response to this RFA. An applicant may request a project period of up to2 years and a budget for direct costs of up to $275,000, in keeping with standard R21 mechanism guidelines. An applicant may request a project period of up to 3 years for an R33. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from applicat!
ion to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award, especially in the case of R33 awards, will also vary. Budgets for R33 applications should be appropriate for the science proposed. An applicant may submit an unlimited number of unique applications in response to this announcement.
