UNC Lineberger Developmental Funding Program

The UNC Lineberger Developmental Funding Program (the Innovation Awards) is intended to support the cancer research innovations led by faculty, research staff, fellows and postdocs of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The objective is to stimulate new applications for extramural funding.

All UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center members and UNC system school faculty are encouraged to apply.

Targeted RFAs may be added to each funding cycle, and proposals of high merit in each tier may be considered for the targeted RFA mechanism.

The next application cycle will be Fall 2025. The website will be updated with further details closer to the application cycle.

Application

The application website will be announced and opened approximately one week ahead of the deadline. Both registration and submission must be completed by 5 p.m. on the deadline date.
