"Declarations The findings and conclusions in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official position of the National Institutes of Health or US Department of Health and Human Services."

"This funding opportunity aims to provide a strong foundation in research design, methods, and analytic techniques appropriate for the proposed cancer research area, with the goal of developing independent research careers for US and LMIC scientists. This also seeks to strengthen and develop global cancer research leadership and mentorship at US institutions, with the expectation that the awarded training programs and trainees in the US and LMICs will attract additional funding from other resources (NIH, philanthropic organizations, etc.) and continue to develop global oncology research programs. This grant program anticipates supporting a total of 7 US and LMIC collaborating teams who propose novel and relevant programs to develop workforce capacity in cancer research."
