DOD Prostate Cancer Health Disparity Research Award: The PCRP Health Disparity Research Award mechanism was introduced in FY01. Since then, 95 proposals have been received and 30 have been recommended for funding. The Health Disparity Research Award reflects the PCRPs commitment to resolving disparities in prostate cancer incidence, morbidity, and mortality by funding health disparity-focused projects by investigators at multiple points in their careers: . Transitioning Investigators: Mentored investigators transitioning into their first independent faculty position and establishing their own independent research programs. . Early-Career Investigators: Independent investigators in the early stages of their careers. . Established Investigators: Independent investigators at or above the Assistant Professor level or equivalent. Appropriate disparity focus areas include, but are not limited to: . Race and ethnicity, . Socioeconomic status, . Access to health care, . Insurance status, . Age, . Geography, and . Cultural beliefs. PIs who do not have either experience in prostate cancer research or a connection to, or effectiveness in working with, an affected population or community are strongly encouraged to include a collaborator (or collaborators) with the appropriate prostate cancer or health disparity research experience. Such experience may include: . Being a member of the affected population or community with a demonstrated commitment to the affected population or community; . Having experience working with the affected population or community; or . Having interactions with or an active membership in organizations such as the Urban League, National Medical Association, National Alliance for Hispanic Health, American Indian Health Care Association, National Rural Health Association, Patient Advocate Foundation National African American Outreach Program, or Prostate Health Education Network (PHEN). In addition, the proposal must explicitly state how the proposed research is related to a health disparity focus area in prostate cancer. This award may support research with laboratory animals and human biological substances, as well as research with human subjects that does not involve clinical trials. Clinical trials are not acceptable under this mechanism. PIs wishing to apply for funding for a clinical trial should utilize the Clinical Trial Award mechanism.
