The Young Investigator Award (YIA) provides funding to promising investigators to encourage and promote quality research in clinical oncology. The purpose of this award is to fund physicians during the transition from a fellowship program to a faculty appointment. Priority consideration will be given to proposals that include patient-oriented and, ultimately, clinical research.
Since many awards are supported with restricted grants from outside organizations, we are particularly interested in identifying young researchers working in the following subspecialties and emerging disciplines:
-
Breast Cancer
-
Cancer Survivorship
-
Geriatric Oncology
-
Health Disparities
-
Kidney Cancer
-
Multiple Myeloma
-
Ovarian Cancer
-
Pancreatic Cancer
-
Sarcoma
-
Survivorship
-
Young Adult Cancer
However, The ASCO Cancer Foundation welcomes application submissions in all oncology subspecialties.
