Molecular Imaging in Cancer Grants
Pilot project grant funds are available to support
innovative projects and feasibility studies in molecular
imaging. Studies may involve basic, translational or
clinical approaches to development of molecular imaging
capabilities, broadly related to cancer detection,
prevention, diagnosis or therapy. Cross-disciplinary
approaches are encouraged.
Funds are provided through support by the NCI-funded
program to establish an In vivo Cellular Molecular Imaging
Center. All faculty members with a cancer-related molecular
imaging project, written in collaboration or consultation
with a member of the JHU ICMIC, may apply. Grants will be
in the range of $25,000 to $50,000 for one year with the
potential for a no-cost extension for an additional year.
Support may be requested for supplies and technical
salaries.
Applications must contain specific aims, background
including preliminary studies, experimental design,
relevant publications, budget, estimated duration of
project, and current and pending support with reasons for
overlap. Applications must be written in font size 10 or
larger. The total length of the specific aims, background
and experimental design sections combined should not exceed
five pages. An original and three copies of the proposal
must be submitted by April 20 to Zaver Bhujwalla, 208C
Traylor Building, 720 Rutland Ave. Applicants will be
notified by Aug. 1.
Applications will be reviewed by members of the JHU
ICMIC program. High priority will be given to innovative
molecular imaging projects which involve significant
interactions between faculty members. Projects can be
high-risk but should be based on sound reasons for
succeeding. For pre-submission inquiries, such as
identifying potential collaborators, or other
application-related information, contact Martha Seay, grant
administrator, at 410-502-0174.
Request for Proposals
The Acheson J. Duncan Fund for the Advancement of Research
in Statistics requests proposals for small grants to
support research projects in statistics, probability and
stochastic processes.
All Hopkins faculty and students are eligible to apply
for funding for collaborative projects with a member of the
faculty in the Applied Mathematics and Statistics
Department. Most grants will be less than $5,000.
Proposals should be brief, preferably no more than
three single-sided pages; provide itemized expense
estimates; and be signed by each investigator. Proposals
may be submitted at any time to committee chair John
Wierman, Applied
Mathematics and Statistics Department, 302 Whitehead
Hall.
