ABTA Research Collaboration (ARC) Grant Program
ARC Grants are two year, $200,000 grants intended to promote team science in a way that will streamline and accelerate progress and affect the desired change in clinical outcome for brain tumors. Research projects supported under this mechanism must be conducted by a team of at least two co-principal investigators (Co-PI's) from distinct institutions. The research project should be multi-disciplinary in that it incorporates multiple components such as basic, translational, clinical and epidemiological research.
The ARC Grant Program requires a Letter of Intent (LOI). The ABTA Grant Application Portal is accepting these LOIs from August 16, 2017 to September 27, 2017 at noon Central Time.
ARC research projects are pre-screened using the LOI mechanism. Invitations and instructions to submit a complete proposal will be extended by email in early December, with an application due date of mid to late January.
