## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY – DEVELOPMENTAL FUNDS 
Developmental Funds over the past funding period supported the recruitment of new investigators, pilot 
projects and contributed to the development of a new shared resource. Developmental Funds are allocated 
based upon a rigorous assessment of AECC needs, as articulated in the Center's strategic planning process 
and coordinated by the AECC's Steering and Executive Committees. A substantial proportion of 
Developmental Funds were used to leverage high-priority recruitments by supplementing the start-up 
packages provided by the College. AECC has an established mechanism for the solicitation and review of pilot 
project applications and the allocation of funds. The emphasis is on: (i) supporting novel projects by young 
investigators; (ii) catalyzing collaborations between laboratory and clinical investigators, thereby fostering 
translation and (iii) funding high-risk, high-potential, projects. Over the past funding period one shared resource 
received Developmental Funds, Chemical Synthesis, and is included in this application for approval as an 
established shared resource. This facility represents an important addition to AECC's expanding drug 
development effort. Plans for the expenditure of Developmental Funds over the coming grant period reflect 
priorities designated in the Strategic Plan and are designed to address important needs of the programs and, 
more broadly, the goals of the Center.
