Exploratory Grants in Cancer Epidemiology and Genomics Research (R21): This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications for research on cancer epidemiology, genomics, and risk assessment. The overarching goal is to provide support to promote the early and conceptual stages of research efforts on novel scientific ideas that have the potential to substantially advance cancer research, such as improving epidemiologic study data collection; validating measurement of exposures in body fluids and tissues; applying epigenetic or metabolomic approaches to cancer epidemiology research; developing and applying novel strategies for discovery of risk variants for rare cancers; understanding the population genetic architecture of cancer in understudied populations; or validating methods to extract, collect, and synthesize clinical data via electronic medical records for use in observational studies of cancer patients and survivors.
