This grant is for research projects that combine imaging and liquid biopsy techniques to monitor tumors during cancer treatment. The goal is to better understand how these methods can help track how well a treatment is working or if the cancer is becoming resistant to therapy.
Who it's for: This grant is open to a wide range of applicants, including public and private universities, small businesses, tribal governments, non-profit organizations, for-profit organizations, and various levels of government. If your organization is involved in cancer research and can integrate imaging and liquid biopsy in therapy monitoring, you may qualify.
