We're pretty passionate about Teamwork, in fact it just happens to be one of our values, which is why we are more than excited to announce the first in a series of new grant programs from Prostate Cancer Canada, The Movember Team Grants. Funded by Mo Bros and Mo Sistas like you, these grants will facilitate collaboration between researchers and institutions from different areas of focus. Researcher expertise can range from specialists in biology to treatment, diagnoses to survivorship and prevention. This program brings together Canadian experts to pool their expertise and focus on a specific topic, while also providing a training environment for investigators just starting their research careers, such as fellows, graduate and undergraduate students and others from a multidisciplinary environment. Team Grants will be awarded to proposals that keep this multidisciplinary approach in order to answer specific prostate cancer questions.
We've found that through collaboration, both nationally and internationally, we can learn from others experience, look at problems with fresh eyes and make a greater difference to those going through prostate cancer. Successful applicants will be announced in July of next year, with funding that could span up to 5 years. Interested in learning more?
