Children’s Tumor
Children’s Tumor Foundation
Type of Organization: Foundation
Email Address: ctfgrants@altum.com
Funds Available for Clinical Trials: ✗ Research: ✔
Applicants should have an MD, PhD, or an equivalent degree from a recognized US or non-US institution.
The application’s principal investigator (PI) should not have received more than $200,000 in total direct costs for previous NF or SWN research as a PI of one of more federally or privately funded, non-mentored peer-reviewed grants at the time of application submission.
Co-investigators who have received funding in NF or SWN research are allowed only if their role in the project is secondary and limited.
Applicants must be willing to consult with experts in NF or SWN in the definition of their application and have access to expertise throughout the duration of the award. CTF can provide a panel of experts who will mentor the applicant.
Other info: The Young Investigator Award is CTF’s longest running award program, and provides two-year salary support to early career NF researchers, such as senior doctoral students and post-doctoral researchers, to help them get established as independent NF investigators. Since its inception, several YIAs have made groundbreaking research findings and notable publications through this program, and many have advanced to become leaders in the NF research and clinical communities. The main function of the YIA program has been to serve as a ‘seeding mechanism’ for researchers to secure larger grants, such as from the NIH and CDMRP NFRP.
