The Lung Cancer Research Foundation (LCRF) – Multiple Grant Calls – Competitive LOI’s

Grant on Prevention and Early Detection in Lung Cancer 

This funding mechanism is focused on identifying, characterizing, and developing approaches and techniques that will allow early detection and/or prevention of lung cancer and gaining insight into pre-neoplastic processes in the lungs. The ultimate goal is to detect lung cancer at the earliest stages and subsequently increase survival and survivorship.

Funding: max of $150K for 2 years (Non-Profit)

Research Grant on Overcoming Resistance in Lung Cancer

Focus on furthering the understanding of the development, prevention, and therapy of resistance by supporting projects that seek to identify, characterize, treat or prevent resistance to lung cancer therapies. Work supported through this mechanism will address important mechanistic questions and developmental therapeutics across histological subtypes of lung cancer (including lung adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and small cell lung cancer) and across the care continuum including newly designed targeted therapies and immunotherapies. These studies will enhance the momentum of improving lung cancer outcomes and have the potential to increase survivorship.

Funding: max of $150K for 2 years (Non-Profit)

Leading Edge Research Grant Program

The goal of the LCRF Leading Edge Research Grant Program is to fund innovative projects across the full spectrum of basic, translational, clinical, epidemiological, health services, disparities, and social determinants of health research.

Funding: max of $150K for 2 years (Non-Profit)
