Description
The PCRP Physician Research Training Award was introduced in FY03. Since then, 93 applications have been received and 40 have been recommended for funding. The Physician Research Training Award supports a mentored training experience to prepare physicians with clinical duties and/or responsibilities for a productive career in prostate cancer research. The PI must be in the last year of an accredited medical residency or medical fellowship program, or within the first 3 years following his or her appointment as an Instructor, Assistant Professor, or equivalent. A training program appropriate to the area of study, which may include coursework and seminars, that will provide the PI with experience in key areas such as statistics, bioethics, and/or relevant basic science disciplines, must be part of the application. This award requires the involvement of a designated mentor with an established research program in prostate cancer.Funds from this award are intended to provide aggressive protection, at least 40%, of the PI’s time for research. The PI must demonstrate a commitment to a career in prostate cancer research and clinical practice. In addition, up to 50% of a key support person’s salary may be provided by this award. Up to $10,000 in funds per year from this award may be used for research supplies and equipment. These funds may be used for research with laboratory animals and human biological substances, as well as research with human subjects that does not involve clinical trials. PIs may participate in clinical trials as part of their training for this award, but funding for the clinical trials must come from a source other than this award. The PCRP seeks applications from all areas of basic, preclinical, behavioral, and epidemiological research, that are responsive to one or more of the FY09 PCRP focus areas. See the Program Announcement for the full Funding Opportunity Description.
