To tackle the human health challenges that face the world today, the FNIH develops collaborations with top experts from government, industry, academia and the not-for-profit sector and provides a neutral environment where we can work productively toward a common goal.
The NiP- Metastatic Prostate Cancer Project will re-examine the Cou302 database to further optimize the radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) endpoint to include additional factors that may influence overall survival. The model in development will be a first-in-prostate cancer predictive model to incorporate imaging
To address the growing need for evidence that improves the type and quality of care and support provided to persons with dementia and their caregivers, the National Institute on Aging (NIA) is hosting the Summit Virtual Meeting Series: 2020 National Research Summit on Care, Services, and Supports for Persons with Dementia and Their Caregivers. The Virtual Summit Series will build on the foundation laid by the 2017 National Research Summit on Care, Services, and Supports for Persons with Dementia and Their Caregivers. This series aims to expand upon what was learned in the previous summit and spark new innovative ideas from those living with dementia, caregivers, researchers, providers, and advocates
The NINDS Healthcare Disparities in Tribal Communities (HDTC) Summer Internship Program (SIP) is a student research training program in brain and nervous system research. The program focuses on neurological disorders and healthcare disparities and seeks to provide research experiences and career development opportunities for Native American students, along with students from other underrepresented communities.
https://fnih.org/sites/default/files/final/pdf/APPENDIX%20D_PACT%20Guidelines_v2_01142019_0.pdfThe Partnership for Accelerating Cancer Therapies (PACT) is a five-year public-private research collaboration totaling $220 million launched by the National Institutes of Health, the FNIH and 12 leading pharmaceutical companies as part of the Cancer Moonshot. PACT will initially focus on efforts to identify, develop and validate robust biomarkers — standardized biological markers of disease and treatment response — to advance new immunotherapy treatments that harness the immune system to attack cancer. The partnership will be managed by the FNIH.
The Stephen J. Solarz Memorial Fund supports immunotherapy research in the laboratory of David Schrump, M.D. at the Center for Cancer Research of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Funds are used to provide international fellowship opportunities to aspiring post-doctorate scientists and researchers in the field of cancer.
The Cancer Research Fund enables individuals to support cancer research at the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
The Sallie Rosen Kaplan Postdoctoral Fellowship for Women Scientists in Cancer Research is a highly competitive, unpaid, annual, one-year program that provides additional mentoring opportunities, networking, seminars and workshops to female National Cancer Institute postdoctoral fellows to help them to transition to independent research careers.
The Dr. Edward T. Rancic Memorial Fund for Cancer Research supports a Fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Richard Childs at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) to explore treatments for renal cell carcinoma.
The Dean R. O'Neill Renal Cell Cancer Research Fund supports a Fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Richard Childs at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) to explore treatments for renal cell carcinoma.
The Jayne Koskinas Ted Giovanis (JKTG) Foundation for Health and Policy established two NIH Intramural Research Training Awards (IRTAs) for deserving young scholars in the NIH Intramural Training program. Through this IRTA, the JKTG Foundation aims to fund fellows whose basic research could help to expand the understanding of disease and could ultimately result in clinical applications.
