Description:

The Impact Grant program is intended to contribute to the scientific idea `pipeline' by supporting significant progression in cancer research programs, from individual investigators or multidisciplinary teams, that are anywhere in the continuum from basic high impact discovery to translational work of direct relevance to the clinic. Impact Grants are to provide funding to support ideas that promote major advancement in research programs, whether at the fundamental discovery stage (such as studies involving model organisms that demonstrate potential for impact) through to applied research (such as patient or population based proposals). Note that these grants are not intended to support incremental scientific advances and should not be considered a "regular" research grant.

There is a limit of one Impact Grant application per Principal Investigator/Co-Principal Investigator in a competition, and only one can be held by a Principal Investigator/Co-Principal Investigator at any given time.

Application Details:

There will be a two stage application and review process. Applicants will be required to submit a letter of intent (LOI) and selected applicants will be invited to submit a full application.

Your application will be submitted through EGrAMS. Only the strongest LOI's will be invited to submit a full proposal. Application guides can be found on the EGrAMS documentation for applicants page.

INDIRECT COSTS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED ELIGIBLE EXPENSES

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.
