Stand Up To Cancer-American Cancer Society Lung Cancer Translational Research Dream Team Grant

Stand Up To Cancer-American Cancer Society Lung Cancer Translational Research Dream Team Grant The AACR, on behalf of Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), and the American Cancer Society calls upon members of the cancer community to contribute their ideas to the groundbreaking Stand Up To Cancer-American Cancer Society Lung Cancer Translational Research Dream Team Grant. We invite submission of ideas for a translational cancer research project that addresses critical problems in lung cancer and positively impacts patients in the near future. The project should include therapeutic interventions for lung cancer, and deliver near-term patient benefit through investigation by a multidisciplinary, multi-institutional, synergistic Dream Team of expert investigators. The Lung Cancer Dream Team research will be expected to involve new immunological approaches. The project must be designed to accelerate the application of therapeutic agents to the clinic (i.e., lead to patient involvement within 2-3 years from the beginning of the grant) Proposals for this Dream Team research project must present plans indicating how the work will be translated into the clinic. The ideas should be based on perceived opportunities for success as well as high-priority areas with a critical need for rapid progress beyond current medical care. Letters of Intent will be reviewed by the SU2C-American Cancer Society Joint Scientific Advisory Committee (JSAC), and Teams with the most promising idea submissi...
