Description:

The Ovarian Cancer Research Program (OCRP) was established in fiscal year 1997 to promote innovative research focused on eliminating ovarian cancer by supporting partnerships and collaborations in ovarian cancer.

The OCRP Pilot Award supports conceptually innovative, high-risk/high-reward research that could ultimately lead to critical discoveries or major advancements that will drive the field of ovarian cancer research forward. The proposed research must demonstrate a clear focus on ovarian cancer (e.g., using tissues, cell lines, datasets, or appropriate animal models, etc.). The proposed research should include a testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale and serve as a catalyst to expand or modify current thinking about and/or approaches in ovarian cancer. Preliminary data are not required, but are allowed, since the goal of this award is to generate preliminary data. The strength of the application should be based on sound scientific rationale and logical reasoning. Clinical trials will not be supported by this award mechanism.

Application Details: Proposal submission is a two-step process consisting of (1) a pre-application submission through the CDMRP eBRAP system, and (2) a proposal submission through Grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov/). As the Grants.gov application package for this award mechanism uses Adobe Reader forms, you must have a compatible version of Adobe Reader in order to submit the application package. Submission of the same research project to different award mechanisms within the same program or to other CDMRP programs is discouraged. The Government reserves the right to reject duplicative proposals. Please ensure that you have completed the pre-application submission before the mandatory pre-application deadline. NOTE: the "Submit" button must be pressed for pre-application to be complete otherwise it will remain in draft status.
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
