The 2023 Challenge Grants support cancer research projects across the cancer continuum and across disciplines, with an ultimate goal of solving a problem in cancer that is meaningful to people affected by or at risk of cancer.
Cancer researchers submitted applications from the four pillars of health research — biomedical, clinical, health services as well as social, cultural, environmental and population health. Then each application was thoroughly reviewed by 7 expert panels comprised of scientific experts and patients, survivors and caregivers.
Of the 175 applications we received, 35 have been approved for funding. These projects will receive more than $18 million in funding over 3 years.
