2013 Cancer Survivorship Center RFA (Round 1) The Duke Cancer Institute is pleased to announce the first round of funding for the Cancer Survivorship Center pilot research projects. The goal of the pilot project program is to foster survivorship research that will inform and improve care delivery at Duke and/or allow investigators to develop preliminary data that will support external funding proposals. Research can span the spectrum from clinical or translati onal research to health services research and may include a focus on psychosocial wellbeing, cardio-oncology, health disparities, symptom management, care coordination, quality, behavioral health, patient educa tion, or policy. The research question must be relevant to the care and outcomes of patients following initial treatment of cancer. Support: Option 1: Ind ividual PI: Range: $8K to $10K for a one year project period with appropriate budget justification. Option 2: Co-PI Team: Range: $10K to $20K for a one year project period with appropriate budget justification. Collaborations require two or more active faculty participants. At the time of submission at least one of the PI's must be a DCI member and the other PI should apply for DCI membership based on this demonstrated interest in cancer research. - Proposals may support research staff, equipment, or supplies but not t he principal investigator/s effort. - All pilot projects are eligible to compete for a second year of funding based upon progress, scientific justification, and the availability of funds. - Non-DCI members (particularly young investigators) may submit applications with sponsorship by a DCI member. Eligibility: Applications can be sub mitted by Duke Cancer Institute (DCI) members. I nterested applicants who are not yet members of DCI, for whom cancer survivorship is an area of research emphasis, are encouraged to apply to DCI for membership.

2013 Cancer Survivorship Center RFA (Round 1)

The Duke Cancer Institute is pleased to announce the first round of funding for the Cancer Survivorship Center pilotresearch projects. The goal of the pilot project program is to foster survivorship research that will inform andimprove care delivery at Duke and/or allow investigators to develop preliminary data that will support externalfunding proposals. Research can span the spectrum from clinical or translational research to health services researchand may include a focus on psychosocial wellbeing, cardio-oncology, health disparities, symptom management, carecoordination, quality, behavioral health, patient education, or policy. The research question must be relevant to thecare and outcomes of patients following initial treatment of cancer.

Support:

Option 1: Individual PI: Range: $8K to $10K for a one year project period with appropriate budget justification.

Option 2: Co-PI Team: Range: $10K to $20K for a one year project period with appropriate budget justification.

Collaborations require two or more active faculty participants. At the time of submission at least one of the PI's mustbe a DCI member and the other PI should apply for DCI membership based on this demonstrated interest in cancerresearch.

- Proposals may support research staff, equipment, or supplies but not the principal investigator/s effort. - All pilot projects are eligible to compete for a second year of funding based upon progress, scientific justification,

and the availability of funds. - Non-DCI members (particularly young investigators) may submit applications with sponsorship by a DCI member.

Eligibility:

Applications can be submitted by Duke Cancer Institute (DCI) members. I nterested applicants who are not yetmembers of DCI, for whom cancer survivorship is an area of research emphasis, are encouraged to apply to DCIfor membership. Young investigators without a prior history in cancer research, but with interest in embarkingon a cancer-related career path, are strongly encouraged to apply to DCI for membership. The project must bedirectly related to cancer survivorship.

Application:

Please utilize NIH budget, biosketch and research format and submit application in the order listed below and in onecomplete pdf. file. Title the file with the investigator(s) last name(s) first, followed by: - Cancer Survivorship CenterPilot Project. e.g.: Doe, Smith – Cancer Survivorship Center Pilot Project.
