LOS ANGELES, Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) and Cancer Research Innovation in Science (CRIS) today announced two new CRIS Cancer Foundation-PCF Young Investigator Awards. The awards, each in the amount of $250,000, are granted to future research leaders at two of the United Kingdom's leading cancer research institutions who will keep the field of prostate cancer research vibrant with new ideas.
Established by the PCF in 2008, the Young Investigator Awards offer career and project support for young (generally 35 and younger), proven investigators in postdoctoral fellowships or who have recently achieved junior faculty positions and are committing their lives to the field of prostate cancer. Each proposal submitted to the PCF undergoes a rigorous peer-review process that assesses the scientific merit of the project, as well as its potential impact on patients.
