Research priorities for 2012
What is the Priority-driven Collaborative Cancer Research Scheme (PdCCRS)?
The PdCCRS is an annual national research project grants scheme which funds cancer research in identified priority areas to help reduce the impact of cancer in the community and improve outcomes for people affected by cancer.
Priority-driven Collaborative Cancer Research grants will support Australian researchers to work collaboratively to generate evidence, increase knowledge, and improve the translation of research into policy and practice in identified priority areas.
The national collaborative approach improves the coordination and funding of cancer research, and adds value to the research investment of both Cancer Australia and its funding partners.
