ChicagoCHEC Requests for Full Project Proposals
ChicagoCHEC is pleased to announce a Request for Proposals to support two collaborative projects for innovative research toward cancer health equity spanning the disciplines of basic, clinical, translational, prevention, control, behavioral, population, and/or community engagement research. Faculty from NEIU, UIC, and NU are eligible to receive funding. Preference will be given to projects that include a junior faculty member (i.e., someone who has never held R01-level funding as a Principal Investigator) from any of the three institutions. Each proposal requires collaboration from a team of investigators across the three institutions as Multiple PIs (MPIs). All proposals require at least one partner organization that is a community-based organization or another type of partner, including but not limited to federal or local government agencies, school districts, and/or healthcare providers.
Please note that a pre-consultation Zoom meeting and letter of intent are required for full consideration. The proposal must be submitted using the NU competitions platform available at the link below. Key dates are listed below:
