DoW Melanoma Research Program Survivorship Research Award
Funding Opportunity Number: HT942526MRPSRA
About the Opportunity
The fiscal year 2026 (FY26) Melanoma Research Program (MRP) Survivorship Research Award addresses the relatively new and underfunded area of melanoma-specific survivorship by supporting a broad range of innovative and impactful research. The intended outcome is improving the health and well-being of melanoma survivors, their families, and/or their care partners in the near term.
Proposed studies focusing exclusively on animal models or considering survival only without regard to quality of life, overall health, and/or function are not responsive to this funding opportunity.
Distinctive Features
- The application must include at least one melanoma consumer collaborator, defined as a melanoma survivor, family member, and/or care partner who can provide lived experience expertise to the research project team, or a melanoma-community supporting organization to support the planning, execution, and implementation of the proposed research.
- Clinical trials are allowed.
