Activities To Promote Research Collaborations (APRC) FY2008


ACTIVITIES TO PROMOTE RESEARCH COLLABORATIONS (APRC)

FY2008 Guidelines and Information for Applicants

(Revised 1/24/2008 - supercedes all previous versions)

PURPOSE

The Division of Cancer Biology (DCB) of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) announces for the Federal fiscal year of 2008 the opportunity for grantees to seek supplemental funding for existing DCB-funded research projects to support and encourage multidisciplinary scientific collaboration among DCB grantees, as well as with other members of the scientific community. This initiative known as the Activities to Promote Research Collaborations (APRC) can support novel collaborative activities in cancer biology that bring together new ideas and approaches from disparate scientific disciplines. The proposed APRC activities should be within the overall scope of the active parent DCB grant.

The APRC Program is anticipated to be highly competitive with limited funding; only a few supplements will be awarded. Before submission, all grantees must call their DCB Program Director to discuss the planned collaboration and application.

This document describes the: (1) purpose, (2) background, (3) the administrative mechanism available to promote research collaborations under this program, (4) eligibility requirements, (5) review considerations and criteria, (6) application procedures, (7) post-award requirements, (8) application deadline, (9) mailing address, and (10) contact information for inquiries.
