Description
The OCRP Ovarian Cancer Academy Dean Award supports visionary individuals who are established ovarian cancer researchers with a strong record of mentoring and a commitment to leadership. In addition to leading the Ovarian Cancer Academy, the Academy Dean will be recognized with the life-long title of Department of Defense (DOD) Ovarian Cancer Research Professorship.
The Ovarian Cancer Academy is envisioned as a unique, interactive virtual academy that will provide intensive mentoring, national networking, and a peer group for junior faculty in their pursuit to become successful, highly productive ovarian cancer researchers. The Ovarian Cancer Academy will be multi-institutional and will consist of five individually awarded Early-Career Investigators and their designated mentors. Each Early-Career Investigator will be within the first three years of his/her first faculty position (or equivalent) and his/her designated mentor will be an experienced ovarian cancer researcher with a strong record of mentoring young investigators. The OCRP Integration Panel (IP), Program Manager, and Grant Manager will assume the role of an external advisory board (EAB) to the Academy. The EAB will plan, organize, and host an annual one-day workshop and a biennial three-day conference for presentation of research, networking, and developing collaborative efforts by all Academy members. It is anticipated that participation in the Ovarian Cancer Academy will facilitate scientific collaborations, faculty advancement, as well as career progression and the receipt of independent peer reviewed funding for Early-Career Investigators.
