Melanoma Faculty Grant
About the Grant
Established in 2024, this grant aims to support Dermatology faculty by funding early-stage research projects to acquire preliminary data, with the goal of enhancing the likelihood of securing larger grants in the future.
Each award is $10,000, with an award period of one year from the date of award disbursement. Only one award will be given each year, although the number of grants selected for funding may change based on available funds. Award renewal is not allowed.
Applications can propose any melanoma-related research targeting Coloradans. This includes educating Coloradans, emphasizing sun-protective behaviors, encouraging early detection and screening, and maintaining or advancing current information on treatment options for melanoma. The type of research can range from T0 (basic science), T1 (translation to humans), T2 (translation to patients), T3 (translation to practice) to T4 (translation to communities).
Applications will be accepted until September 1 at 5:00 PM MT. Decisions will be made and emailed by December 1.
