Grant Description

The Translational Pilot Award mechanism supports innovative translational research addressing a critical problem or question in ovarian cancer that will accelerate the movement of promising ideas toward clinical applications. The proposed research should provide a catalyst to challenge or expand current thinking about and/or approaches to ovarian cancer. It must involve early-stage translation of an idea from the laboratory to the clinic, or from the clinic back to the laboratory. Observations that generate a translational pilot research idea may be derived from a laboratory discovery, literature review, population-based studies, novel findings from a clinical trial, or a clinician•À_s firsthand knowledge of patients and anecdotal data. Innovation is an important feature of the Translational Pilot Award.
