Description: |
IIR Grants seek to stimulate exploration of important issues and novel approaches that will lead to reductions in breast cancer incidence and/or mortality within the next decade.
Komen is introducing a new approach to its IIR RFA in an effort to align supported research projects with Komen?s annual strategic objectives and to provide consistency for the research community. Only applications addressing the specific research issues for that year will be accepted; however, it is expected that a broad range of laboratory and clinical investigations will be proposed within each specific annual research issue. The IIR specific research issues for 2010-2011 are: Prevention/Early Detection, Novel Therapeutics and Resistance, Biology of Breast Cancer, Disparities in Breast Cancer Outcomes. A
pplications addressing topics other than those described above as annual research issues will be administratively withdrawn from consideration, and will not be reviewed or scored. |
