# MSI Faculty in the Field of Cancer Research

## Abstract

The Minority Faculty Scholar in Cancer Research Awards increase the scientific knowledge base
of faculty at Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs), and encourage them and their students to
pursue careers in cancer research. Now in their 20th year, these awards are given throughout
the year to faculty at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions,
and other Minority Institutions as defined by the US Department of Education. Beginning in
2016-2017, minority junior faculty at majority institutions will also be eligible to apply for this
support for participation in an American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual
Meeting or Special Conference.
With this application, AACR is proud to share the results of this evaluation, conducted by
Thomson Reuters (Scientific) LLC. This evaluation proved the lasting value of the program to
faculty scholar awardees, their research programs, and by extension, to the next generation of
cancer researchers that they train in the laboratory and in the classroom. With the generous
support of the NCI and a few improvements to this long-standing program, AACR can assure
that it remains innovative and essential to the future of cancer research.
