Special Research Initiatives
The CBCRP announces funding opportunities through our Special Research Initiatives (SRI). Investigators will be supported to pursue research strategies that increase knowledge about and create solutions to both the environmental causes of breast cancer and the unequal burden of the disease. Seven new initiatives are scheduled for funding.
For information on application deadlines and procedures, go to the SRI Call for Applications
“Core Funding” Call for Applications - Cycle 18 - 2012

- Translational Research: for projects that overcome barriers and put prior research knowledge to practical use in the patient or community setting. Up to $750,000 direct costs for up to 3-years. For more information in this award type, go here.
- Conference award: supports a conference, symposium, retreat, or other meeting to stimulate new ideas and collaborations. Up to $25,000. To learn more about this award, go here.
- Community Research Collaboration awards are described in a separate call for applications.
Application instructions and forms are available on proposalCENTRAL (https://proposalcentral.altum.com/) and on our website http://cbcrp.org/apply/appForms/.

Community Research Collaborations
New Opportunity: Intensive Training Program (ITP) Opportunity from the Community-Based Research Infrastructure to Better Science (CRIBS) Project
Applications are due by 5pm PST September 30, 2011
The CRIBS ITP is an innovative face-to-face and online training program for both newly forming and experienced collaborative community-academic research partnerships. Collaborative partnerships include 2-3 Co-Principal Investigators (Co-PIs). In each partnership, at least one Co-PI must be an academically trained researcher and at least one Co-PI must be a community member/leader. The ITP will provide training to stimulate community-based participatory research (CBPR) that addresses the environmental causes of and/or social disparities in breast cancer.
The ITP includes both face-to-face training sessions and innovative online training sessions. The five face-to-face trainings take place in 2-day sessions (Fri/Sat), once per month for five months, for a total of 10 days. The online training portion takes place over the same five months, reinforcing and expanding on the learning that takes place in the face-to-face trainings. The online portion is “asynchronous” – participants work online at their convenience, engaging with classmates any time of the day or night. Find out more >

New Funding Strategy
In 2010, the CBCRP developed a plan that will guide our funding strategy through 2015. View a summary of how CBCRP will fund breast cancer research to accelerate progress against the disease.
