Cancer Research Education Grants Program - Courses for Skills Development (R25 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has established the Cancer Research Education Grants Program, which focuses on Courses for Skills Development. This initiative is part of the NIH's Research Education Program (R25), aimed at promoting research education in related fields. This particular program, under the guidance of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), aims to provide support for educational activities that enhance and complement the training of a skilled workforce relevant to biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research.

The primary objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to stimulate creative educational activities that center on Courses for Skills Development. Innovators in the state-of-the-art programs addressing various aspects of cancer, including its causes, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment, are especially encouraged to participate in this program. The program also invites proposals that focus on cancer rehabilitation, the continuing care of cancer patients, and the support and care needed for their families. The ultimate goal is to address the nation's biomedical, clinical, and behavioral research needs more efficiently and gain a deeper understanding of cancer and its impacts on those affected.
