Our center encourages innovative research that works to understand and help cancer survivors and co-survivors living in underserved areas throughout the state. To support this research, we have funding opportunities available for pilot projects. It is our goal that selected projects will strengthen and expand the pipeline of thought-provoking research and experienced investigators in the development and implementation of their programs.
