Requirements: If an applicant does not currently meet an eligibility requirement at the time of application, but will meet it prior to the award start date OR has special circumstances that prevent it from being met, the applicant must notify LUNGevity at the time of LOI submission. This information should be attached to the applicant’s biosketch and should be no more than one page.
Education and Experience: At the start of the award term, the applicant, who must be the principal investigator for the proposed research, must: 1) hold a doctoral degree and be within the first five (5) years of his/her first faculty appointment with any academic institution, including research institutions that are not formally associated with a university 2) have completed a training fellowship. An applicant may be at any level of research experience. Because the award term for the 2024 Career Development Award begins on November 1, 2024, an applicant’s first faculty appointment must have begun no earlier than the start of the 2019 fall semester. The exact start date should be included in the biosketch. If an applicant has had time off for personal or family leave, this time shall not count toward the five years. An applicant must be an independent, self-directed researcher for whom their institution must provide space and other resources customary for independent investigators. The application must convey the commitment of the institution to the applicant and the proposed research activities. If it is not clear from an applicant’s title or from the employment information in the biosketch that a position is considered to be faculty, a note of explanation/confirmation should be included in the personal statement.

Other info: The Career Development Award supports future research leaders who will keep the field of lung cancer research vibrant with new ideas. Research that will be funded in 2024 is expected to have a direct impact on the early detection of lung cancer and/or individualized lung cancer treatment, including through targeted therapy and immunotherapy. This award is open to applicants in the US only.
