SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEXT GENERATION OF ISRAELI CANCER SCIENTISTS. ICRF IS COMMITTED TO FACILITATING THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUTURE CANCER SCIENTISTS IN ISRAEL. TOWARDS THIS END ICRF FUNDS THREE TYPES OF GRANTS: POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP AWARDS, RESEARCH CAREER DEVELOPMENT AWARDS, AND CLINICAL RESEARCH CAREER DEVELOPMENT AWARDS. FELLOWSHIPS SUPPORT MDS AND PHDS WHO HAVE JUST COMPLETED THEIR POSTGRADUATE TRAINING. THESE AWARDS CAN BE USED TO SUPPORT SALARIES OR RESEARCH COSTS, WHILE THESE INDIVIDUALS APPRENTICE IN THE LABORATORIES OF SENIOR INVESTIGATORS. CAREER DEVELOPMENT AWARDS ARE TO ENHANCE THE RESEARCH CAPABILITIES OF YOUNG ISRAELI SCIENTISTS IN THE FORMATIVE PHASE OF THEIR CAREERS. CANDIDATES MUST HAVE DEMONSTRATED OUTSTANDING POTENTIAL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO CANCER RESEARCH AND MUST EXHIBIT GREAT POTENTIAL TO BECOME INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATORS RESEARCH. SUPPORTING THESE NEWLY LAUNCHED SCIENTISTS, ENHANCES THEIR OPPORTUNITIES IN ISRAEL AND ALLOWS THEM TO OPTIMIZE THEIR WORK WITHOUT EMIGRATING TO OTHER ADVANCED COUNTRIES.


SUPPORT COLLABORATIVE CANCER RESEARCH CONDUCTED BY ISRAELI SCIENTISTS IN ASSOCIATION WITH NORTH AMERICAN CANCER SCIENTISTS. CANCER SCIENCE OFTENTIMES REQUIRES MULTI-DISCIPLINARY APPROACHES, ENGAGEMENT WITH HIGHLY SPECIALIZED AREAS OF SCIENCE, AND EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT THAT IS NOT EASILY ACCESSED. COLLABORATIONS BETWEEN SCIENTISTS IN ISRAEL AND NORTH AMERICA CAN ADDRESS THESE CHALLENGES, FOSTER UNEXPECTED SYNERGIES, AND ENHANCE BOTH INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY AND INNOVATION. ICRF PROMOTES COLLABORATION BY SUPPORTING GRANTS THAT FUND PROMISING CANCER RESEARCH PROJECTS BEING CONDUCTED ON A COLLABORATIVE BASIS BETWEEN INVESTIGATORS IN ISRAEL AND AN AMERICAN OR CANADIAN RESEARCH INSTITUTION.
