Description

This grant funds research projects focused on discovering novel therapeutic targets and rational combinations in head and neck cancer. The program encourages projects that use genomics, immune profiling, mechanistic studies, and analyses of human tissues (preferred) or animal models to identify new therapeutic avenues based on biological dependencies in tumors or their microenvironments. The research should have a clear translational focus, ideally fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and laying the groundwork for larger, future funding.
