AACR IMMUNO-ONCOLOGY RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS

Funding Agency:
American Association for Cancer Research

The AACR Immuno-oncology Research Fellowships represent a joint effort to encourage and support postdoctoral or clinical research fellows to conduct immuno-oncology research and to establish a successful career path in this field. The research proposed for funding may be basic, translational, clinical, or epidemiological in nature and must have direct applicability and relevance to immuno-oncology.

These fellowships provide two-year grants of $120,000 to support the salary and benefits of the fellow while working on mentored immuno-oncology research. A partial amount of funds may be designated for non-personnel expenses, such as research/laboratory supplies, equipment, publication charges for manuscripts that pertain directly to the funded project, and other research expenses.

Deadline: Dec. 14, 2022
