Description:

Founded in 2015, BioCanRx (Biotherapeutics for Cancer Treatment) is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to improve outcomes for cancer patients by accelerating the development of cost-effective and curative biotherapies. BioCanRx supports biotherapeutic development research through four research programs and a number of core facilities that are accessible to all members of the BioCanRx network.

This program will provide financial support for short-term, collaborative projects that have clear deliverables and will either result in an application to one of the other two BioCanRx programs, or will generate tools or methodologies that may be used by numerous BioCanRx members. Examples of projects that might be funded through this program include: preclinical validation of a new combination of biotherapeutics; or, the development of an innovative manufacturing technology.

Application Details: BioCanRx uses a rolling open call that starts with a letter-of-intent stage and has submission deadlines that are structured around the meeting dates of our Research Management Committee. Successful LOI's will be invited to submit a full application in line with the scheduled meeting dates.The completed Letter of Intent (LOI) or full application must be delivered by email to applications@biocanrx.com and must be received by 11:59 pm ET, on the deadline in advance of the next scheduled RMC meeting (see Apply for funding on the BioCanRx website).
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.
