Milheim Foundation
The University of Colorado Anschutz Cancer Center partners with the Milheim Foundation to support and advance cancer research. Milheim funding covers all areas of cancer research, treatment and prevention. Funds are not intended to support extensions on prior pilot project efforts or to extend funding already provided by the Cancer Center for the development of multi-project grants.
Eligibility: Must be a Cancer Center member. Candidates with current awards must be in good financial standing (no deficits, all progress reports up to date). Investigators with active Milheim funding are not eligible to apply. Funds are non-transferable. If the PI leaves and no Co-PI can take over, remaining funds will be reverted. Co-PI leadership transfer requires prior approval. Investigators who apply will be asked to serve as reviewers for up to the next three (3) funding mechanisms (should their expertise be required).
Duration: 1 year.
Funding: $20,000- $25,000.
Internal LOI deadline: 5:00 pm MT on Friday, June 12, 2026.
