The AACR-National Brain Tumor Society Career Development Award for Translational Brain Tumor Research represents a joint effort to encourage and support junior faculty who are in the first 5 years of a faculty appointment (at the start of the grant term) to conduct brain tumor research and establish successful career paths in this field. The research proposed for funding must be translational in nature and have direct applicability and relevance to brain tumors.
The Award provides $150,000 over two years ($75,000 per year) for direct research expenses; which may include the salary and benefits of the grant recipient, postdoctoral or clinical research fellows, and/or research assistants, research/laboratory supplies and equipment.
