This grant funds research using data science methods like AI, bioinformatics, and computational analysis to study large prostate cancer datasets, requiring collaboration and alignment with key program challenges.
Funder: Dept. of the Army -- USAMRAA
Due Dates (Anticipated): September 2026
Funding Amounts: Estimated total program funding $5,600,000; ~4 awards expected; typical award size not specified.
Summary: Supports research leveraging data science and analytics to advance knowledge from large or complex prostate cancer datasets, addressing FY26 PCRP Overarching Challenges.
Key Information: Multiple PIs allowed; pre-application by initiating PI required.
This opportunity supports research that develops or utilizes quantitative and analytical approaches, processes, and systems to extract knowledge and insight from large and/or complex sets of prostate cancer data. Focus areas include, but are not limited to: analysis of clinically annotated datasets, -omics data, artificial intelligence and machine learning, bioinformatics, computational biology, digital pathology, epidemiology, and medical imaging. All proposals must address one of the FY26 Prostate Cancer Research Program (PCRP) Overarching Challenges. The mechanism is designed for multi-PI projects, with a single initiating PI responsible for the pre-application and all PIs required to submit full applications. The partnering PI submits an abbreviated application specific to their research portion. If either the initiating or partnering application is rejected or withdrawn, all associated applications for the project may be withdrawn.
