# DEVELOPMENTAL RESEARCH PROGRAM

> **NIH NIH P50** · SLOAN-KETTERING INST CAN RESEARCH · 2020 · $221,057

## Abstract

The Developmental Research Program (DRP) will identify new opportunities to support physicians and 
scientists, and encourage them to use their expertise to develop novel translational research ideas in 
lymphoma. The DRP will provide seed funding to generate and explore new hypotheses that may 
subsequently be expanded and tested as full project within the Lymphoma SPORE, or through other SPOREindependent 
peer-reviewed external grant support. The purpose of the SPORE DRP is to develop translational 
research projects that should result in testable hypotheses aimed at improving the diagnosis and treatment of 
lymphoma. On an annual basis, a request for proposals will be distributed to all participating institutions. 
Selected proposals (1-2 annually) will be supported with $50,000 of the SPORE budget with matching 
institutional support. Funding will be awarded for 1 year. Based on accomplishments during the first year, and 
review by the EAB, funding may be extended by a second year. Usual NIH review criteria will be used in 
selection of projects. Proposals from underrepresented minority and female applicants will be specifically 
solicited. The program takes advantage of a strong group of investigators with documented scientific record 
and outstanding infrastructure at all three participating Institutions, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center 
(MSK), Weill-Cornell Medical College (WCMC) and the Columbia University Medical Center/Herbert Irving 
Comprehensive Cancer Center.
