Description

The Ovarian Cancer Research Program (OCRP) Investigator-Initiated Research Award supports high-impact research addressing critical needs in ovarian cancer or patient/survivor care. Applications must include a strong research plan with sound scientific rationale and preliminary data. Research projects may focus on any phase from basic laboratory research through translational research, excluding clinical trials. The Partnering Principal Investigator (PI) Option allows two investigators to collaborate synergistically on a single project to advance research beyond individual efforts.
