Description: |
The objective of the Terry Fox New Frontiers Program Project (Terry Fox New Frontiers) Grant at CIHR is to support Canadian research teams to explore new frontiers in cancer research (i.e., breakthrough and transformative biomedical, clinical, and translational research providing information which may form the basis for innovative cancer prevention, diagnosis and/or treatment). The program will strengthen Canadian cancer research by supporting teams of talented and experienced researchers conducting high-quality research. The Terry Fox New Frontiers grant is designed specifically to support high-risk projects of large potential impact, where the environment will maximize the chances of success. The Terry Fox New Frontiers Grant program will provide support for new teams applying for the first time for a period three years. Terry Fox New Frontiers Grants are renewable, subject to competition and peer review, for a maximum duration of five years.
Eligible Terry Fox New Frontiers teams will be made up of at least three independent investigators, one of which will be identified as the Nominated Principal Applicant and Program Coordinator and the others as Principal Applicants. The projects in the Program must represent scientific input from all Principal Applicants contributing substantially to the primary research goal. This competition is open to applications that address issues related to the cause of cancer, cancer prevention and diagnosis, cancer care and the cancer care system. |

Application Details: |
The application process is comprised of two stages: Letter of Intent and Full Application.
CIHR Team Grant proposals will be evaluated as a single, integrated entity. While each research component included in the application must be meritorious, it is critical to demonstrate that the CIHR Team Grant brings added value, in terms of the approach to cancer problems or issues, and the speed and efficiency with which new knowledge will be generated, or translated into improvements in health or the health care system, when compared with funding the proposed work as a series of separate operating grants. Only selected applicants will be invited to submit a full application by the deadline date. Details of the application procedure will be provided to those invited to apply.
Your Application must be submitted using ResearchNet. Scan and upload the signed signature pages including the routing slip in the Print/Upload Signature Pages task in ResearchNet prior to submitting your application.
This funding opportunity requires the use of CIHR Web Forms to apply for funding.
Information required will include a description of the individual components making up the team's research program, as well as the justification for supporting the synergistic aspects of the entire proposal. The review process may involve external reviews and/or a meeting of the leader and team members with sub-sets of the review committee, as appropriate.INDIRECT COSTS ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY THIS PROGRAM. |
|
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission. |
