National Cancer Institute

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is announcing a limited competition for 
competing supplemental applications from NCI-designated Cancer Centers funded 
through P30 Cancer Center Support Grants.  This supplemental initiative is 
intended to assist Cancer Centers in building a research capability in  
Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine research through provision of 
developmental funds for innovative pilot research projects having potential, 
ultimately, to compete for R01 support.  The initiative is part of a 
continuing effort to stimulate and strengthen research in Cancer 
Complementary and Alternative Medicine in NCI-designated Cancer Centers as an 
important component of the broad research portfolio of the program as a 
whole.   NCI-designated Cancer Centers possess the infrastructure, 
organization, leadership, and integrated multidisciplinary research 
objectives that enable them to build and incorporate new programs in emerging 
areas of cancer research.

NCI staff will contact the current grantees directly regarding application 
procedures and format.
