General

The purpose of the Association For Research of Childhood Cancer grant awards is to provide funding for basic science and clinical projects related to the goal of advancing knowledge in Pediatric and Adolescent cancers. All grants are peer reviewed by the Medical/Scientific Advisory Board. Funding decisions are made by the AROCC Board based on the recommendations of the Medical/Scientific Advisory Board and the availability of funds.

The Association for Research of Childhood Cancer does NOT provide funding for travel, photocopying, general office costs and grant or salary overhead costs and fringe benefits.It is the responsibility of the applicant to obtain all appropriate administrative clearances, including if necessary, Institutional Review Board approval. Deadline for application is November 15th for awards in June of the following year. A complete report of research activities including publications and other grants resulting from the work must be submitted within three (3) months of grant ending or termination.

We provide support for multiple, one-year "seed type" grants (not to exceed $30,000) addressing basic science and/or clinical research in areas directly or indirectly related to research issues in Pediatric or Adolescent cancer research. The number of such awards will vary depending on availability of funds in any granting period. Click Here to display the "Format Instructions".
