Breast cancer risk and prevention research grants – Apply Now
18 Oct 17 |
Breast Cancer Now is seeking applications from researchers aiming to tackle gaps in our understanding of the risks of breast cancer, and how this information could be used in prevention. We’re particularly interested in research projects aiming to provide evidence to implement risk-adapted screening in the UK. This could include:
- Feasibility or pilot studies within the breast screening service.
- Psychosocial studies to determine the acceptability of risk-adapted screening for women to whom it would be offered.
- Research into the most clinical and cost effective screening modalities for the different risk groups.
For further information and to apply please visit their website.
The deadline for applications to Breast Cancer Now is 12th January 2018
