The primary purpose of these grants is to serve as “seed” money to permit the initiation of promising new projects or novel ideas by junior faculty. Support of investigators who have a competitive national research grant or who have received prior support from the American Cancer Society Institutional Research Grant is not permitted. Projects in any area of cancer research – basic, clinical, epidemiological, and behavioral, etc. -will be considered.  \nWe are strongly encouraging applications from Under-Represented Minority faculty based on NIH definition of “Populations Underrepresented in the Extramural Scientific Workforce” by race and ethnicity  \n([https://diversity.nih.gov/about-us/population-underrepresented](https://diversity.nih.gov/about-us/population-underrepresented)) . The following racial and ethnic groups have been shown to be underrepresented in biomedical research: Blacks or African Americans, Hispanics or Latinos, American Indians or Alaska Native, Native Hawaiians, and other Pacific Islanders (Samoan, Guamanian or Chamorro, Fijian, Tongan, or Marshallese peoples).”  \nAllocations are made based upon the recommendations of the ACS-IRG Scientific Review Committee of the Cancer Center after its review of each application. Review of proposals takes approximately six to eight weeks. Only one application per applicant is allowed. Awards are made for a one-year period. Anticipated start date of funding is October 1, 2024. Please submit electronic version of your application (single PDF file) to the Cancer Center at acs[irg@usc.edu](irg@usc.edu) no later than 12PM PT on Monday, July 15, 2024.  \nELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENT:  \n1. Principal Investigator must be a USC junior faculty member who is within the first six years of independent research or faculty appointment at the start date of the proposed IRG allocation, October 1, 2024.   \n2. Principal Investigator must not have an active or prior competitive national research grant (e.g. , NIH K99/R00, R03, R01, R21, DOD, etc. ) . Recipients of career development (K) awards intended for salary are eligible.  \n3. Recipients of IRG pilot project grants are not required to be United States (U.S. ) citizens. However, any applicant for IRG pilot project funding who is not a U.S. citizen must hold a visa that will allow them to remain in the U.S. long enough to complete the IRG pilot project and provide the appropriate documentation at the time of submission.  \n4. IRB/IACUC Approvals – ACS-IRG funding will not be released without IRB and/or IACUC approval(s), if applicable to your project.  \nFORMATTING THE APPLICATION  \na.
