Targeted RFAs
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.
Pediatric Cancer Research RFA
One to two Tier 1 Pilot or Tier 2 Stimulus grants will be awarded to research projects that are focused on the biology, diagnosis, treatment, or outcomes of cancers prevalent in children.
Projects may be one to two years in duration and led by investigators from any department at UNC. Special consideration will be given to projects that include participation from members of the Division of Pediatric Hematology-Oncology and that provide a plan for research extending beyond the initial grant period.
A history of prior funding in the area of pediatric cancer is not required. Applications from any category (Basic, Clinical/Translational, or Population Science) are eligible.
Grant proposals will be evaluated as part of the 2024 Fall UNC Lineberger Developmental Award review process and are subject to the guidelines of the program.
