PCF Young Investigator Awards will be three (3) years in duration and will provide $75,000 per year. The award funds may be used innovatively and flexibly to advance the career and research efforts of the awardee. This for example, includes funding ‘protected time’ or direct costs for laboratory science. This award does not support indirect costs such as
institutional overhead. Every PCF Young Investigator is required to have at least 1 mentor. PCF Award recipients are required to submit progress reports on time to receive additional payments. Young Investigator awardees are required to attend the Annual PCF Scientific Retreat and Young Investigator Forum, typically held in October, throughout the
duration of their award; PCF will separately cover most costs for this travel requirement.
PCF seeks applications from the global biomedical research community. We seek applications from early-career basic scientists, medical oncologists, pathologists, urologists, radiologists, radiation oncologists, public health experts, bioinformaticians, bioengineers, or professionals from any other field that could contribute to the end of potentially lethal
prostate cancer. Applicants may be working in basic, translational, computational, or clinical research in an academic orcommunity research organization and need not be trained specifically in prostate cancer research to be highly competitive.
However, successful applicants should be working in a research environment capable of supporting transformational prostate cancer research.
Applicant must have a professional degree (MD, DO, PhD, MD-PhD, DSc, ScD, DDM, DDS, DMD, MBBS, or equivalent) and be within six years of completion of their terminal degree or subsequent mentored academic or clinical training program including postdoctoral or clinical fellowships.
Applicant must be under the supervision of a mentor(s). At least one mentor at the applicant’s institution is required.
